Generalized cartan type k lie algebras in characteristic 0

The Lie algebra of Cartan type K which occurs as a subalgebra of the Lie algebra of derivations of the polynomial algebra F[x₀, x₁,…, x_n,x_n?1,…,x_?n], where F is a field of characteristic 0, was generalized by the first author to a class which included a subalgebra of the derivations of the Laurent polynomials F[x₀,x₁,…, x_n,x_?1,…,x_?n,X₀ ^?1x₁ ^-1,…,x_n ^?1,…,x_?1 ^?1…,x_?n ^?1]A further generalization of these algebras is the main topic of this paper. We show when these algebras are simple, determine all possible     

Polynomial Identities for Tangent Algebras of Monoassociative Loops

We introduce degree n Sabinin algebras, which are defined by the polynomial identities up to degree n in a Sabinin algebra. Degree 4 Sabinin algebras can be characterized by the polynomial identities satisfied by the commutator, associator, and two quaternators in the free nonassociative algebra. We consider these operations in a free power associative algebra and show that one of the quaternators is redundant. The resulting algebras provide the natural structure on the tangent space at the identity element of an analytic loop for which all local loops satisfy monoassociativity, a ² a ≡ aa ². These algebras are the next step beyond Lie, Malcev, and Bol algebras. We also present an identity of degree 5 which is satisfied by these three operations but which is not implied by the identities of lower degree.     

On Cartan Invariants and Blocks of Zassenhaus Algebras #

In this article, we determine the Cartan invariants for Zassenhaus algebras W(1,n). This is done by reducing representations of generalized restricted Cartan type Lie algebra W(1,n) to representations of restricted Lie algebras W(1,1) and of ± b𝔰 ± b𝔩(2), and then extending Feldvoss-Nakano's argument on W(1,1) to the case W(1,n).     

Simple Bol Loops

In this article we investigate the Bol loops and connected with them groups. We prove an analog of the Doro's theorem for Moufang loops and find a criterion for simplicity of Bol loops. One of the main results obtained is the following: If the right multiplication group of a connected finite Bol loop S is a simple group, then S is a Moufang loop.     

On the Implementation of Lie Group Methods on the Stiefel Manifold

There are several applications in which one needs to integrate a system of ODEs whose solution is an n×p matrix with orthonormal columns. In recent papers algorithms of arithmetic complexity order np ² have been proposed. The class of Lie group integrators may seem like a worth while alternative for this class of problems, but it has not been clear how to implement such methods with O(np ²) complexity. In this paper we show how Lie group methods can be implemented in a computationally competitive way, by exploiting that analytic functions of n×n matrices of rank 2p can be computed with O(np ²) complexity.     

Conjugation in Representations of the Zassenhaus Algebra

Let F be an algebracially closed field of characteristic p > 2, and L be the p ⁿ -dimensional Zassenhaus algebra with the maximal invariant subalgebra L ₀ and the standard filtration {L _i }| ^pn−2 _{i =−1}. Then the number of isomorphism classes of simple L-modules is equal to that of simple L ₀-modules, corresponding to an arbitrary character of L except when its height is biggest. As to the number corresponding to the exception there was an earlier result saying that it is not bigger than p ⁿ . Received May 10, 1999, Accepted December 8, 1999     

A note on Bol loops of order 2 n k

It is shown that, for eachn 2 and k 3, there exist at least 2 ⁿ -3 non-isomorphic loops of order 2 ⁿ k which are Bol but not Moufang. In most cases this bound can be improved.     

Incidence properties of cosets in loops

We study incidence properties among cosets of infinite loops, with emphasis on well‐structured varieties such as antiautomorphic loops and Bol loops. While cosets in groups are either disjoint or identical, we find that the incidence structure in general loops can be much richer. Every symmetric design, for example, can be realized as a canonical collection of cosets of a infinite loop. We show that in the variety of antiautomorphic loops the poset formed by set inclusion among intersections of left cosets is isomorphic to that formed by right cosets. We present an algorithm that, given a infinite Bol loop S, can in some cases determine whether |S| divides |Q| for all infinite Bol loops Q with S?Q, and even whether there is a selection of left cosets of S that partitions Q. This method results in a positive confirmation of Lagrange's Theorem for Bol loops for a few new cases of subloops. Finally, we show that in a left automorphic Moufang loop Q (in particular, in a commutative Moufang loop Q), two left cosets of S?Qare either disjoint or they intersect in a set whose cardinality equals that of some subloop of S.     

Triple products on  n

Triple products in  _n whose related algebra is  _n itself or  _n are classified up to isomorphism. This classification is obtained using the intimate relation between triple products and Lie (super)algebra structures.     

L ∞ Structures on Spaces with Three One-Dimensional Components

Abstract

L _∞ structures have been a subject of recent interest in physics, where they occur in closed string theory and in gauge theory. This paper provides a class of easily constructible examples of L _n and L _∞ structures on graded vector spaces with three one-dimensional components. In particular, it demonstrates a way to classify all possible L _n and L _∞ structures on V?=?V _m ?⊕?V _m+1?⊕?V _m+2 when each of the three components is one-dimensional. Included are necessary and sufficient conditions under which a space with an L ₃ structure is a differential graded Lie algebra. It is also shown that some of these differential graded Lie algebras possess a nontrivial L _n structure for higher n.     

Non-weight representations of Cartan type S Lie algebras

For the two Cartan type S subalgebras of the Witt algebra 𝒲_n, called Lie algebras of divergence-zero vector fields, we determine all module structures on the universal enveloping algebra of their Cartan subalgebra 𝔥_n. We also give all submodules of these modules.     

Alternative rings of small order

We construct all the alternative (but not associative) algebras of dimension at most 5 over a perfect field. For any prime p, we show that there are fifteen alternative rings of prime power order pⁿ ,n≤5, which are not associative. None of these rings is nil. Just one has a unity.     

Varieties of modules for

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic 2. We prove that the restricted nilpotent commuting variety , that is the set of pairs of (n×n)-matrices (A,B) such that A²=B²=[A,B]=0, is equidimensional. can be identified with the ‘variety of n-dimensional modules’ for , or equivalently, for k[X,Y]/(X²,Y²). On the other hand, we provide an example showing that the restricted nilpotent commuting variety is not equidimensional for fields of characteristic >2. We also prove that if e²=0 then the set of elements of the centralizer of e whose square is zero is equidimensional. Finally, we express each irreducible component of as a direct sum of indecomposable components of varieties of -modules.     

On the tensor square of non-abelian nilpotent finite-dimensional Lie algebras

For every finite p-group G of order p ⁿ with derived subgroup of order p ^m , Rocco [N.R. Rocco, On a construction related to the nonabelian tensor square of a group, Bol. Soc. Brasil. Mat. 1 (1991), pp. 63–79] proved that the order of tensor square of G is at most p ^n(n?m). This upper bound has been improved recently by the author [P. Niroomand, On the order of tensor square of non abelian prime power groups (submitted)]. The aim of this article is to obtain a similar result for a non-abelian nilpotent Lie algebra of finite dimension. More precisely, for any given n-dimensional non-abelian nilpotent Lie algebra L with derived subalgebra of dimension m we have dim(L???L)?≤?(n???m)(n???1)?+?2. Furthermore for m?=?1, the explicit structure of L is given when the equality holds.     

On the extension of involutorial Bol loops

The group theoretical problem of the existence of a system of representativesT of the subgroup H of G such that T consists of conjugacy classes of involutions leads to the theory of Bol loops of exponent 2. In this paper, we develop a theory of extensions of such loops and give two applications of the theory. First, we classify all (left) Bol loops of exponent 2 of order 16; second, we classify all Bol loops of exponent 2 whose right nucleus has index 2. In particular, we give a class of examples of non-nilpotent such Bol loops.

Finite-dimensional Representations for a Class of Generalized Intersection Matrix Lie Algebras

In this paper, the authors study a class of generalized intersection matrix Lie algebras gim(M_n), and prove that its every finite-dimensional semisimple quotient is of type M(n, a, c, d). Particularly, any finite dimensional irreducible gim(M_n) module must be an irreducible module of Lie algebra of type M(n, a, c, d) and any finite dimensional irreducible module of Lie algebra of type M(n, a, c, d) must be an irreducible module of gim(M_n).     

Notes on Free Monadic Boolean Algebras

If F B(2 ⁿ – 1) denotes the Boolean algebra with 2 ⁿ – 1 free generators and P(2 ⁿ ) is the Cartesian product of 2 ⁿ Boolean algebras all equal to F B(2 ⁿ – 1), we define on P(2 ⁿ ) an existential quantifier by means of a relatively complete Boolean subalgebra of P(2 ⁿ ) and we prove that (P(2ⁿ),) is the monadic Boolean algebra with n free generators. Every element of P(2 ⁿ ) is a 2 ⁿ -tuple whose coordinates are in F B(2 ⁿ – 1); in particular, so are the n generators of P(2 ⁿ ). We indicate in this work the coordinates of the n generators of P(2 ⁿ ).     

Automorphisms of Relatively Free Nilpotent Lie Algebras

Let L be a relatively free nilpotent Lie algebra over ? of rank n and class c, with n ≥ 2; freely generated by a set 𝒵. Give L the structure of a group, denoted by R, by means of the Baker–Campbell–Hausdorff formula. Let G be the subgroup of R generated by the set 𝒵 and N _Aut(L)(G) the normalizer in Aut(L) of the set G. We prove that the automorphism group of L is generated by GL _n (?) and N _Aut(L)(G). Let H be a subgroup of finite index in Aut(G) generated by the tame automorphisms and a finite subset X of IA-automorphisms with cardinal s. We construct a set Y consisting of s + 1 IA-automorphisms of L such that Aut(L) is generated by GL _n (?) and Y. We apply this particular method to construct generating sets for the automorphism groups of certain relatively free nilpotent Lie algebras.
