Graded extended Lie-type algebras

The class of extended Lie-type algebras contains the ones of associative algebras, Lie algebras, Leibniz algebras, dual Leibniz algebras, pre-Lie algebras, and Lie-type algebras, etc. We focus on the class of extended Lie-type algebras graded by an Abelian group G and study its structure, by stating, under certain conditions, a second Wedderburn-type theorem for this class of algebras.     

Conformal representations of Leibniz algebras

We study the embedding construction of Lie dialgebras (Leibniz algebras) into conformal algebras. This construction leads to the concept of a conformal representation of Leibniz algebras. We prove that each (finite-dimensional) Leibniz algebra possesses a faithful linear representation (of finite type). As a corollary we give a new proof of the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem for Leibniz algebras.     

Solvable Leibniz algebras with naturally graded non-Lie p-filiform nilradicals

In this paper solvable Leibniz algebras with naturally graded non-Lie p-filiform (n?p≥4) nilradical and with one-dimensional complemented space of nilradical are described. Moreover, solvable Leibniz algebras with abelian nilradical and extremal (minimal, maximal) dimensions of complemented space nilradical are studied. The rigidity of solvable Leibniz algebras with abelian nilradical and maximal dimension of its complemented space is proved.     

On Exact Courant Algebras

In this note, we will show that exact Courant algebras over a Lie algebra 𝔤 can be characterized via Leibniz 2-cocycles, and the automorphism group of a given exact Courant algebra is in a one-to-one correspondence with first Leibniz cohomology space of 𝔤.     

3-Filiform Leibniz algebras of maximum length,whose naturally graded algebras are Lie algebras

In this article we present the classification of the 3-filiform Leibniz algebras of maximum length, whose associated naturally graded algebras are Lie algebras. Our main tools are a previous existence result by Cabezas and Pastor [J.M. Cabezas and E. Pastor, Naturally graded p-filiform Lie algebras in arbitrary finite dimension, J. Lie Theory 15 (2005), pp. 379–391] and the construction of appropriate homogeneous bases in the connected gradation considered. This is a continuation of the work done in Ref. [J.M. Cabezas, L.M. Camacho, and I.M. Rodríguez, On filiform and 2-filiform Leibniz algebras of maximum length, J. Lie Theory 18 (2008), pp. 335–350].     

The Classification of Naturally Graded p-Filiform Leibniz Algebras

In the present article the classification of n-dimensional naturally graded p-filiform (1 ≤ p ≤ n ? 4) Leibniz algebras is obtained. A splitting of the set of naturally graded Leibniz algebras into the families of Lie and non Lie Leibniz algebras by means of characteristic sequences (isomorphism invariants) is proved.     

On the toroidal Leibniz algebras

Toroidal Leibniz algebras are the universal central extensions of the iterated loop algebras g×C[t1^±1,...,tv^±1] in the category of Leibniz algebras. In this paper, some properties and representations of toroidal Leibniz algebras are studied. Some general theories of central extensions of Leibniz algebras are also obtained.     

On Isomorphisms and Invariants of Finite Dimensional Complex Filiform Leibniz Algebras

In this article, we propose an approach classifying a class of filiform Leibniz algebras. The approach is based on algebraic invariants. The method allows to classify all filiform Leibniz algebras (including filiform Lie algebras) in a given fixed dimensional case.     

Criteria for solvability and supersolvability in Leibniz algebras

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. Recently, analyzing the structure of subalgebras, David Towers gave some criteria for the solvability and supersolvability of Lie algebras. In this paper we define analogues concepts for Leibniz algebras and extend some of these results on solvability and supersolvability to that of Leibniz algebras.     

Leibniz algebras with pseudo-Riemannian bilinear forms

M. Bordemann has studied non-associative algebras with nondegenerate associative bilinear forms. In this paper, we focus on pseudo-Riemannian bilinear forms and study pseudo-Riemannian Leibniz algebras, i.e., Leibniz algebras with pseudo-Riemannian non-degenerate symmetric bilinear forms. We give the notion and some properties of T*-extensions of Leibniz algebras. In addition, we introduce the definition of equivalence and isometrical equivalence for two T*-extensions of a Leibniz algebra, and give a sufficient and necessary condition for the equivalence and isometrical equivalence.     

The Nilpotency Properties of the Leibniz Algebra Mn(C)D

We study the nilpotency properties of the Leibniz algebras constructed by means of D-mappings on the algebra of complex square matrices M _n (C). In particular, we obtain a criterion for nilpotency of these algebras in terms of the properties of a D-mapping. We prove also that the Leibniz algebras under consideration cannot be simple.     

Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree

A Poisson algebra is a Lie algebra endowed with a commutative associative product in such a way that the Lie and associative products are compatible via a Leibniz rule. If we part from a Lie color algebra, instead of a Lie algebra, a graded-commutative associative product and a graded-version Leibniz rule we get a so-called Poisson color algebra (of degree zero). This concept can be extended to any degree, so as to obtain the class of Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree. This class turns out to be a wide class of algebras containing the ones of Lie color algebras (and so Lie superalgebras and Lie algebras), Poisson algebras, graded Poisson algebras, z-Poisson algebras, Gerstenhaber algebras, and Schouten algebras among other classes of algebras. The present paper is devoted to the study of structure of Poisson color algebras of degree g₀, where g₀ is some element of the grading group G such that g₀ = 0 or 4g₀≠0, and with restrictions neither on the dimension nor the base field, by stating a second Wedderburn-type theorem for this class of algebras.

Classification of a subclass of low-dimensional complex filiform Leibniz algebras

We give a complete classification of a subclass of complex filiform Leibniz algebras obtained from naturally graded non-Lie filiform Leibniz algebras. The isomorphism criteria in terms of invariant functions are given.     

On classification of four-dimensional nilpotent Leibniz algebras

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper, we give the classification of four-dimensional non-Lie nilpotent Leibniz algebras. We use the canonical forms for the congruence classes of matrices of bilinear forms and some other techniques to obtain our result.     

Varieties of dialgebras and conformal algebras

We introduce and study the concept of a variety of dialgebras which is closely related to the concept of a variety of conformal algebras: Each dialgebra of a given variety embeds into an appropriate conformal algebra of the same variety. In particular, the Leibniz algebras are exactly Lie dialgebras, and each Leibniz algebra embeds into a conformal Lie algebra.
