Towards a Ryll‐Nardzewski‐type theorem for weakly oligomorphic structures

A structure is called weakly oligomorphic if its endomorphism monoid has only finitely many invariant relations of every arity. The goal of this paper is to show that the notions of homomorphism‐homogeneity, and weak oligomorphy are not only completely analogous to the classical notions of homogeneity and oligomorphy, but are actually closely related. We first prove a Fraïssé‐type theorem for homomorphism‐homogeneous relational structures. We then show that the countable models of the theories of countable weakly oligomorphic structures are mutually homomorphism‐equivalent (we call first order theories with this property weakly ω‐categorical). Furthermore we show that every weakly oligomorphic homomorphism‐homogeneous structure contains (up to isomorphism) a unique homogeneous, homomorphism‐homogeneous core, to which it is homomorphism‐equivalent. As a consequence we obtain that every countable weakly oligomorphic structure is homomorphism‐equivalent to a finite or ω‐categorical structure. As a corollary we obtain a characterization of positive existential theories of weakly oligomorphic structures as the positive existential parts of ω‐categorical theories.     

Differential equations uniquely determined by algebras of point symmetries

We continue to investigate strongly and weakly Lie remarkable equations, which we defined in a recent paper. We consider some relevant algebras of vector fields on ℝ^k (such as the isometric, affine, projective, or conformal algebras) and characterize strongly Lie remarkable equations admitted by the considered Lie algebras. __________ Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 151, No. 3, pp. 486–494, June, 2007.     

The classification of two step nilpotent complex Lie algebras of dimension 8

A Lie algebra g is called two step nilpotent if g is not abelian and [g, g] lies in the center of g. Two step nilpotent Lie algebras are useful in the study of some geometric problems, such as commutative Riemannian manifolds, weakly symmetric Riemannian manifolds, homogeneous Einstein manifolds, etc. Moreover, the classification of two-step nilpotent Lie algebras has been an important problem in Lie theory. In this paper, we study two step nilpotent indecomposable Lie algebras of dimension 8 over the field of complex numbers. Based on the study of minimal systems of generators, we choose an appropriate basis and give a complete classification of two step nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension 8.     

On the lower weakly solvable l-radical of lattice ordered lie algebras

The concept of the lower weakly solvable radical of Lie algebras is important in the study of Lie algebras. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the generalization of this concept to lattice ordered Lie algebras over partially ordered fields. Some results concerning properties of the lower weakly solvable l-radical of lattice ordered Lie algebras are obtained. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the l-prime radical of a Lie l-algebra to be equal to the lower weakly solvable l-radical of the Lie l-algebra are presented.     

Irreducible Lie-Yamaguti algebras of generic type

Lie-Yamaguti algebras (or generalized Lie triple systems) are binary-ternary algebras intimately related to reductive homogeneous spaces. The Lie-Yamaguti algebras which are irreducible as modules over their inner derivation algebras are the algebraic counterparts of the isotropy irreducible homogeneous spaces.These systems splits into three disjoint types: adjoint type, non-simple type and generic type. The systems of the first two types were classified in a previous paper through a generalized Tits Construction of Lie algebras. In this paper, the Lie-Yamaguti algebras of generic type are classified by relating them to several other nonassociative algebraic systems: Lie and Jordan algebras and triple systems, Jordan pairs or Freudenthal triple systems.     

A version of Turán’s problem for positive definite functions of several variables

We present a systematic approach to solving the problem of affine homogeneity of real hypersurfaces in the three-dimensional complex space. This question is an important part of the general problem of holomorphic classification of homogeneous real hypersurfaces in three-dimensional complex spaces. In contrast to the two-dimensional case, the whole problem (just as its affine part) has not yet been fully studied, although there exist a large number of examples of homogeneous manifolds. We study only the class of tubular type surfaces, which is defined by conditions imposed on the 2-jet of their canonical equations and generalizes the class of tube manifolds. We discuss the procedure of describing all matrix Lie algebras corresponding to the homogeneous manifolds under consideration. In the class that we study, we distinguish four cases depending on the third-order Taylor coefficients of the canonical equations; in three of these cases, the Lie algebras and the corresponding affine homogeneous surfaces are completely described. The key point of the proposed approach is the solution of a large system of quadratic equations that corresponds to each of the homogeneous surfaces.     

Irreducible Lie-Yamaguti algebras

Lie-Yamaguti algebras (or generalized Lie triple systems) are binary-ternary algebras intimately related to reductive homogeneous spaces. The Lie-Yamaguti algebras which are irreducible as modules over their Lie inner derivation algebra are the algebraic counterpart of the isotropy irreducible homogeneous spaces.These systems will be shown to split into three disjoint types: adjoint type, non-simple type and generic type. The systems of the first two types will be classified and most of them will be shown to be related to a Generalized Tits Construction of Lie algebras.     

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.     

Bases, filtrations and module decompositions of free Lie algebras

We use the technique known as elimination to devise some new bases of the free Lie algebra which (like classical Hall bases) consist of Lie products of left normed basic Lie monomials. Our bases yield direct decompositions of the homogeneous components of the free Lie algebra with direct summands that are particularly easy to describe: they are tensor products of metabelian Lie powers. They also give rise to new filtrations and decompositions of free Lie algebras as modules for groups of graded algebra automorphisms. In particular, we obtain some new decompositions for free Lie algebras and free restricted Lie algebras over fields of positive characteristic.     

Lie Bialgebras of Generalized WITT Type,II

In an article by Michaelis, a class of infinite-dimensional Lie bialgebras containing the Virasoro algebra was presented. This type of Lie bialgebras was classified by Ng and Taft. In a recent article by Song and Su, Lie bialgebra structures on graded Lie algebras of generalized Witt type with finite dimensional homogeneous components were considered. In this article we consider Lie bialgebra structures on the graded Lie algebras of generalized Witt type with infinite dimensional homogeneous components. By proving that the first cohomology group H¹(𝒲, 𝒲 ? 𝒲) is trivial for any graded Lie algebras 𝒲 of generalized Witt type with infinite dimensional homogeneous components, we obtain that all such Lie bialgebras are triangular coboundary.     

Some Properties On Isoclinism in n-Lie Algebras

The concept of n-Lie algebra were introduced by Filippov in 1987. One notes that not all properties of Lie algebras can be carried over to n-Lie algebras, as Williams showed in 2009. In the present article, among other results it is shown that the notions of isoclinism and isomorphism for two finite dimensional n-Lie algebras of the same dimension are equivalent. This was already done for ordinary Lie algebras by Moneyhun in 1994.     

Cartan automorphisms and Vogan superdiagrams

The real forms of complex semisimple Lie algebras are characterized by Cartan involutions and Vogan diagrams. We extend these notions to the Cartan automorphisms and Vogan superdiagrams, and show that they characterize the real forms of complex contragredient Lie superalgebras.     

On the equivalence of Lie symmetries and group representations

We consider families of linear, parabolic PDEs in n dimensions which possess Lie symmetry groups of dimension at least four. We identify the Lie symmetry groups of these equations with the (2n+1)-dimensional Heisenberg group and SL(2,R). We then show that for PDEs of this type, the Lie symmetries may be regarded as global projective representations of the symmetry group. We construct explicit intertwining operators between the symmetries and certain classical projective representations of the symmetry groups. Banach algebras of symmetries are introduced.     

On Post-Lie Algebras, Lie–Butcher Series and Moving Frames

Pre-Lie (or Vinberg) algebras arise from flat and torsion-free connections on differential manifolds. These algebras have been extensively studied in recent years, both from algebraic operadic points of view and through numerous applications in numerical analysis, control theory, stochastic differential equations and renormalization. Butcher series are formal power series founded on pre-Lie algebras, used in numerical analysis to study geometric properties of flows on Euclidean spaces. Motivated by the analysis of flows on manifolds and homogeneous spaces, we investigate algebras arising from flat connections with constant torsion, leading to the definition of post-Lie algebras, a generalization of pre-Lie algebras. Whereas pre-Lie algebras are intimately associated with Euclidean geometry, post-Lie algebras occur naturally in the differential geometry of homogeneous spaces, and are also closely related to Cartan’s method of moving frames. Lie–Butcher series combine Butcher series with Lie series and are used to analyze flows on manifolds. In this paper we show that Lie–Butcher series are founded on post-Lie algebras. The functorial relations between post-Lie algebras and their enveloping algebras, called D-algebras, are explored. Furthermore, we develop new formulas for computations in free post-Lie algebras and D-algebras, based on recursions in a magma, and we show that Lie–Butcher series are related to invariants of curves described by moving frames.     

A Class of Auslander-Regular Macaulay Rings

Abstract

For a (left and right) noetherian semilocal ring R we analyse a regularity concept (called weak regularity) based on the equation gld R = dim R. Examples are regular Cohen-Macaulay orders over a regular local ring, localized enveloping algebras of finite dimensional Lie algebras, and the regular rings classified in Rump (2001b). We prove that weakly regular rings are Auslander-regular and Macaulay.     

Cartan matrices for restricted Lie algebras

Consider a finite dimensional restricted Lie algebra over a field of prime characteristic. Each linear form on this Lie algebra defines a finite dimensional quotient of its universal enveloping algebra, called a reduced enveloping algebra. This leads to a Cartan matrix recording the multiplicities as composition factors of the simple modules in the projective indecomposable modules for such a reduced enveloping algebra. In this paper we show how to compare such Cartan matrices belonging to distinct linear forms. As an application we rederive and generalise the reciprocity formula first discovered by Humphreys for Lie algebras of reductive groups. For simple Lie algebras of Cartan type we see, for example, that the Cartan matrices for linear forms of non-positive height are submatrices of the Cartan matrix for the zero linear form.     

Categories with Projective Functors

We introduce a notion of a category with full projective functors.It encodes certain common properties of categories appearingin representation theory of Lie groups, Lie algebras and quantumgroups. We describe the left or right exact functors which naturallycommute with projective functors and provide a unified approachto the verification of relations between such functors. 2000Mathematics Subject Classification 17B10.
