The algebraic and geometric classification of Zinbiel algebras

This paper is devoted to the complete algebraic and geometric classification of complex 5-dimensional Zinbiel algebras. In particular, we proved that the variety of complex 5-dimensional Zinbiel algebras has dimension 24, it is defined by 16 irreducible components and it has 11 rigid algebras.

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.     

Leibniz algebras constructed by Witt algebras

ABSTRACT

We describe infinite-dimensional Leibniz algebras whose associated Lie algebra is the Witt algebra and we prove the triviality of low-dimensional Leibniz cohomology groups of the Witt algebra with the coefficients in itself.     

The algebraic and geometric classification of associative algebras of dimension five

The scheme Alg₅ of associative, unitary algebra structures on k⁵, k an algebraically closed field with char (k)2 is investigated. We establish the list of GL₅-orbits on Alg₅ under the action of structural transport. The numberalg₅ of irreducible components of Alg₅ is 10; a list of generic structures is included. We exhibit upper and lower bounds for the asymptotic behaviour of the numberalg_n.     

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.     

Degenerations of binary Lie and nilpotent Malcev algebras

We describe degenerations of four-dimensional binary Lie algebras, and five- and six-dimensional nilpotent Malcev algebras over ?. In particular, we describe all irreducible components of these varieties.     

Novikov algebras and Novikov structures on Lie algebras

We study ideals of Novikov algebras and Novikov structures on finite-dimensional Lie algebras. We present the first example of a three-step nilpotent Lie algebra which does not admit a Novikov structure. On the other hand we show that any free three-step nilpotent Lie algebra admits a Novikov structure. We study the existence question also for Lie algebras of triangular matrices. Finally we show that there are families of Lie algebras of arbitrary high solvability class which admit Novikov structures.     

On supports and associated primes of modules over the enveloping algebras of nilpotent Lie algebras

Let be a nilpotent Lie algebra, over a field of characteristic zero, and its universal enveloping algebra. In this paper we study: (1) the prime ideal structure of related to finitely generated -modules , and in particular the set of associated primes for such (note that now is equal to the set of annihilator primes for ); (2) the problem of nontriviality for the modules when is a (maximal) prime of , and in particular when is the augmentation ideal of . We define the support of , as a natural generalization of the same notion from commutative theory, and show that it is the object of primary interest when dealing with (2). We also introduce and study the reduced localization and the reduced support, which enables to better understand the set . We prove the following generalization of a stability result given by W. Casselman and M. S. Osborne in the case when , as in the theorem, are abelian. We also present some of its interesting consequences.

Theorem. Let be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero, and an ideal of ; denote by the universal enveloping algebra of . Let be a -module which is finitely generated as an -module. Then every annihilator prime of , when is regarded as a -module, is -stable for the adjoint action of on .

     

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.     

Remarks on a Theorem of Amitsur

Amitsur proved the following theorem for an uncountable field k: Let A be a k-algebra, then any finite-dimensional nil subspace of A has bounded index, and any finite dimensional algebraic subspace of A has bounded degree. Here we give a new proof of Amitsur's theorem, a proof which is more elementary and direct, than Amitsur's original proof.     

Lie superalgebras, Clifford algebras, induced modules and nilpotent orbits

Let g be a classical simple Lie superalgebra. To every nilpotent orbit O in g₀ we associate a Clifford algebra over the field of rational functions on O. We find the rank, k(O) of the bilinear form defining this Clifford algebra, and deduce a lower bound on the multiplicity of a U(g)-module with O or an orbital subvariety of O as associated variety. In some cases we obtain modules where the lower bound on multiplicity is attained using parabolic induction. The invariant k(O) is in many cases, equal to the odd dimension of the orbit G⋅O, where G is a Lie supergroup with Lie superalgebra g.     

Bounded degree of algebraic topological algebras

We give a short proof of theorems of Kaplansky and Slin'ko concerning the bounded degree of certain associative or Jordan algebraic topological algebras. This new proof even works for power-associative algebras.     

Tame group actions on central simple algebras

We study actions of linear algebraic groups on finite-dimensional central simple algebras. We describe the fixed algebra for a broad class of such actions.
