Moduli of Einstein and non-Einstein nilradicals

A nilpotent Lie algebra is called an Einstein nilradical if the corresponding Lie group admits a left-invariant Ricci soliton metric. While these metrics are of independent interest, their existence is intimately related to the existence of Einstein metrics on solvable Lie groups. In this note we are concerned with the following question: How are the Einstein and non-Einstein nilradicals distributed among nilpotent Lie algebras? A full answer to this question is not known and we restrict to the class of 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. Within this class, it is known that a generic group admits a Ricci soliton metric. Using techniques from Geometric Invariant Theory, we study the set of non-generic algebras to learn more about the distribution of non-Einstein nilradicals. Many new (continuous) families of non-isomorphic, non-Einstein nilradicals are constructed. Moreover, the dimension of these families can be arbitrarily large (depending on the dimension of the underlying Lie group). To show such large classes of Lie groups are pairwise non-isomorphic, a new technique is developed to distinguish between Lie algebras.     

Poisson manifolds with compatible pseudo-metric and pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras

In a previous paper (C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. I 333 (2001) 763–768), the author introduced a notion of compatibility between a Poisson structure and a pseudo-Riemannian metric. In this paper, we introduce a new class of Lie algebras called pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras. The two notions are closely related: we prove that the dual of a Lie algebra endowed with its canonical linear Poisson structure carries a compatible pseudo-Riemannian metric if and only if the Lie algebra is a pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra. Moreover, the Lie algebra obtained by linearizing at a point a Poisson manifold with a compatible pseudo-Riemannian metric is a pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra. We also give some properties of the symplectic leaves of such manifolds, and we prove that every Poisson manifold with a compatible Riemannian metric is unimodular. Finally, we study Poisson Lie groups endowed with a compatible pseudo-Riemannian metric, and we give the classification of all pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras of dimension 2 and 3.     

Polynomial Lie Algebras and Growth of Their Finitely Generated Lie Subalgebras

The concept of polynomial Lie algebra of finite rank was introduced by V. M. Buchstaber in his studies of new relationships between hyperelliptic functions and the theory of integrable systems. In this paper we prove the following theorem: the Lie subalgebra generated by the frame of a polynomial Lie algebra of finite rank has at most polynomial growth. In addition, important examples of polynomial Lie algebras of countable rank are considered in the paper. Such Lie algebras arise in the study of certain hyperbolic partial differential equations, as well as in the construction of self-similar infinite-dimensional Lie algebras (such as the Fibonacci algebra).     

On the Representation Theory of Lie Triple Systems

In this paper, we take a new look at the representation theory of Lie triple systems. We consider both ordinary Lie triple systems and restricted Lie triple systems in the sense of [14]. In a final section, we begin a study of the cohomology of Lie triple systems.

Fundamental solutions, transition densities and the integration of Lie symmetries

In this paper we present some new applications of Lie symmetry analysis to problems in stochastic calculus. The major focus is on using Lie symmetries of parabolic PDEs to obtain fundamental solutions and transition densities. The method we use relies upon the fact that Lie symmetries can be integrated with respect to the group parameter. We obtain new results which show that for PDEs with nontrivial Lie symmetry algebras, the Lie symmetries naturally yield Fourier and Laplace transforms of fundamental solutions, and we derive explicit formulas for such transforms in terms of the coefficients of the PDE.

On a certain class of locally conformal symplectic structures of the second kind

We study locally conformal symplectic (LCS) structures of the second kind on a Lie algebra. We show a method to construct new examples of Lie algebras admitting LCS structures of the second kind starting with a lower dimensional Lie algebra endowed with a LCS structure and a suitable extension. Moreover, we characterize all LCS Lie algebras obtained with our construction. Finally, we study the existence of lattices in the associated simply connected Lie groups in order to obtain compact examples of manifolds admitting this kind of structure.     

Dual Lie Bialgebra Structures of W -algebra W (2, 2) Type

In the present paper, we investigate the dual Lie coalgebras of the centerless W(2, 2) algebra by studying the maximal good subspaces. Based on this, we construct the dual Lie bialgebra structures of the centerless W(2, 2) Lie bialgebra. As by-products, four new infinite dimensional Lie algebras are obtained.     

Capability of Crossed Modules of Lie Algebras

In this paper, we introduce the concept of capability for crossed modules of Lie algebras, which is a generalization of capability in Lie algebras and groups. By using a special central ideal of a crossed module, we give a sufficient condition for the capability of a crossed module of Lie algebras. Also, we will extend the five-term exact sequence on homology of crossed modules of Lie algebras one term further and study the connection between the capability of crossed modules and this sequence. Finally, we study the relation between the capability and the center of a cover of a crossed module.     

Dirac Cohomology for Lie Superalgebras

Dirac cohomology is a new tool to study representations of semisimple Lie groups and Lie algebras. The aim of this paper is to define a Dirac operator for a Lie superalgebra of Riemannian type and show that this Dirac operator has similar nature as the one for semisimple Lie algebras. As a consequence, we show how to determine the infinitesimal character of a representation by the infinitesimal character of its Dirac cohomology.

Lie symmetries and differential Galois groups of linear equations

For a linear ordinary differential equation the Lie algebra of its infinitesimal Lie symmetries is compared with its differential Galois group. For this purpose an algebraic formulation of Lie symmetries is developed. It turns out that there is no direct relation between the two above objects. In connection with this a new algorithm for computing the Lie symmetries of a linear ordinary differential equation is presented.

Zur konstruktion von Lie-Algebren aus Jordan-Tripelsystemen

In this paper we study certain Lie algebras which are constructed from the (-1)-eigenspaees of an involution of a Jordan algebra. The construction is a generalisation of the Koecher-Tits-construction. We give necessary conditions in terms of the Jordan algebras for the Lie algebras being simple. If the (-1)-spaces are Peirce-1/2-components then we obtain a close relation between the Lie algebras under consideration and the structure algebras of Jordan algebras. We finally give a list of those types of simple Lie algebras which can be formed by this construction; among them are Lie algebras of type E₆ and E₇.Of fundamental importance for our considerations is a close connection between the constructed Lie algebras and the standard imbeddings of Lie triple systems.     

Restricted Lie 2-algebras

In this article, we introduce the notions of restricted Lie 2-algebras and crossed modules of restricted Lie algebras, and give a series of examples of restricted Lie 2-algebras. We also construct restricted Lie 2-algebras from A(m)-algebras, restricted Leibniz algebras, restricted right-symmetric algebras. Finally, we prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between strict restricted Lie 2-algebras and crossed modules of restricted Lie algebras.     

The solution to the embedding problem of a (differential) Lie algebra into its Wronskian envelope

Any commutative algebra equipped with a derivation may be turned into a Lie algebra under the Wronskian bracket. This provides an entirely new sort of a universal envelope for a Lie algebra, the Wronskian envelope. The main result of this paper is the characterization of those Lie algebras which embed into their Wronskian envelope as Lie algebras of vector fields on a line. As a consequence we show that, in contrast to the classical situation, free Lie algebras almost never embed into their Wronskian envelope.
