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.     

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].     

c-Graded filiform Lie algebras

In this paper we generalize naturally graded filiform Lie algebras as well as filiform Lie algebras admitting a connected gradation of maximal length, by introducing the concept of c-graded complex filiform Lie algebras. We deal with the particular case of 3-graded filiform Lie algebras and we obtain their classification in arbitrary dimension. We finally show a link among derived algebras, graded filiform and rigid solvable Lie algebras.     

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 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.     

On the description of Leibniz algebras with nilindex <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>−3

We present the classification of a subclass of naturally graded Leibniz algebras. These n-dimensional Leibniz algebras have the characteristic sequence (n−3,3). For this purpose we use the software Mathematica.     

Classifying Several Classes of Leibniz Algebras

We extend results related to maximal subalgebras and ideals from Lie to Leibniz algebras. In particular, we classify minimal non-elementary Leibniz algebras and Leibniz algebras with a unique maximal ideal. In both cases, there are types of these algebras with no Lie algebra analogue. We also give a classification of E-Leibniz algebras which is very similiar to its Lie algebra counterpart. Note that a classification of elementary Leibniz algebras has been shown in Batten Ray et al. (2011).     

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.     

Einstein solvmanifolds with a simple Einstein derivation

The structure of a solvable Lie group admitting an Einstein left-invariant metric is, in a sense, completely determined by the nilradical of its Lie algebra. We give an easy-to-check necessary and sufficient condition for a nilpotent algebra to be an Einstein nilradical whose Einstein derivation has simple eigenvalues. As an application, we classify filiform Einstein nilradicals (modulo known classification results on filiform graded Lie algebras).      

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 Some Solvable Leibniz Algebras

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we give classification of non-Lie solvable (left) Leibniz algebras of dimension ≤ 8 with one dimensional derived subalgebra. We use the canonical forms for the congruence classes of matrices of bilinear forms to obtain our result. Our approach can easily be extended to classify these algebras of higher dimensions. We also revisit the classification of three dimensional non-Lie solvable (left) Leibniz algebras.     

The Classification of Non-Characteristically Nilpotent Filiform Leibniz Algebras

In this paper we investigate the derivations of filiform Leibniz algebras. Recall that the set of filiform Leibniz algebras of fixed dimension is decomposed into three non-intersected families. We found sufficient conditions under which filiform Leibniz algebras of the first family are characteristically nilpotent. Moreover, for the first family we classify non-characteristically nilpotent algebras by means of Catalan numbers. In addition, for the rest two families of filiform Leibniz algebras we describe non-characteristically nilpotent algebras, i.e., those filiform Leibniz algebras which lie in the complementary set to those characteristically nilpotent.     

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.     

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.     

A Characterization of Nilpotent Leibniz Algebras

W. A. Moens proved that a Lie algebra is nilpotent if and only if it admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation. In this paper, using the definition of a Leibniz-derivation from Moens (2010), we show that a similar result for non-Lie Leibniz algebras is not true. Namely, we give an example of non-nilpotent Leibniz algebra that admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation. In order to extend the results of the paper by Moens (2010) for Leibniz algebras, we introduce a definition of a Leibniz-derivation of Leibniz algebras that agrees with Leibniz-derivation of the Lie algebra case. Further, we prove that a Leibniz algebra is nilpotent if and only if it admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation of Definition 3.4. Moreover, the result that a solvable radical of a Lie algebra is invariant with respect to a Leibniz-derivation was extended to the case of Leibniz algebras.     

Classification of three-dimensional solvable <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>-adic Leibniz algebras

The present paper is devoted to the study of low dimensional Leibniz algebras over the field of p-adic numbers. The classification up to isomorphism of three-dimensional Lie algebras over the integer p-adic numbers is already known [8]. Here, we extend this classification to solvable Lie and non-Lie Leibniz algebras over the field of p-adic numbers.     

Solvable extensions of naturally graded quasi-filiform Leibniz algebras of second type ℒ1 and ℒ3

For sequences of naturally graded quasi-filiform Leibniz algebras of second type ?¹ and ?³ introduced by Camacho et al., all possible right and left solvable indecomposable extensions over the field ? are constructed so that these algebras serve as the nilradicals of the corresponding solvable algebras. The construction continues Winternitz’ and colleagues’ program established to classify solvable Lie algebras using special properties rather than trying to extend one dimension at a time.     

Naturally graded Leibniz algebras with characteristic sequence (n − m, m)

We consider the classification problem for special classes of nilpotent Leibniz algebras. Namely, we consider “naturally” graded nilpotent n-dimensional Leibniz algebras for which the right multiplication operator (by the generic element) has two Jordan blocks of dimensionsm and n ? m. Earlier, the problem of classifying such algebras was studied form < 4. The present paper continues these studies for the case m ≥ 4.     

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.
