Characterizations for Supersolvable Lie Algebras

In (2009), Towers [10 Towers , D. A. ( 2009 ). C-ideals of Lie algebras . Comm. Algebra 37 : 4366 – 4373 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] presented the notion of c-ideality of a subalgebra of a Lie algebra, and gave some characterizations of solvable and supersolvable Lie algebras. In this article, we further investigate the influence of c-ideality of some subalgebras on the structure of Lie algebras. We also obtain some equivalent conditions for supersolvability of a finite dimensional Lie algebra.     

Characterizing n-Isoclinism Classes of Lie Algebras

In this article, we introduce the notion of the equivalence relation, n-isoclinism, between Lie algebras, and obtain some criterions under which Lie algebras are n-isoclinic. In particular, we show that n-isoclinic Lie algebras can be isoclinically embedded into one Lie algebra. Also, we present the notion of an n-stem Lie algebra and prove its existence within an arbitrary n-isoclinism class. In addition, similar to a result of Hekster [6 Hekster , N. S. ( 1986 ). On the structure of n-isoclinam classes of groups . J. Pure Appl. Algebra 40 : 63 – 85 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]] in the group case, we characterize the n-stem Lie algebras in the n-isoclinism classes which contains at least one finitely generated Lie algebra L with dim (L ⁿ⁺¹) finite.     

Simple Nil Lie Algops

A Lie algop is a pair (A, L) where A is a commutative algebra and L is a Lie algebra operating on A by derivations. Faithful simple Lie algops (A, L) are of interest because the corresponding Lie algebras AL are simple—with some rare exceptions at characteristic 2. The simplicity and representation theory of Jordan Lie algops is reduced in Winter (2005b Winter , D. J. ( 2005b ). Lie algops and simple Lie algebras . Comm. Algebra 33 : 3157 – 3178 .[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) to the simplicity theory of nil Lie algops and the simplicity and representation theory of toral Lie algops. This paper is devoted to building the first of these two theories, the simplicity theory of nil Lie algops, as a structure theory.     

Lie Algops and Simple Lie Algebras

ABSTRACT

Pairs (A, L) with A a commutative algebra and L a Lie algebra acting on A by derivations, called Lie algops, are studied as algebraic structures over arbitrary fields of arbitrary characteristic. Lie algops possess modules and tensor products—and are considered with respect to a central simple theory.

The simplicity problem of determining the faithful unital simple Lie algops ( A, L ) is of interest since the corresponding Lie algebras AL are usually simple (Jordan, 2000 Jordan , D. A. ( 2000 ). On the simplicity of Lie algebras of derivations of commutative algebras . J. Algebra 228 : 580 – 585 . [CSA] [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]). For locally finite Lie algops, and up to purely inseparable descent, this problem reduces by way of closures to the closed central simplicity problem of determining those which are closed central simple.

The simplicity and representation theories for locally nilpotent separably triangulable unital Lie algops are of particular interest because they relate to the problems of classifying simple Lie algebras of Witt type and their representations. Of these, the simplicity theory reduces to that of Jordan Lie algops.

The main Theorems 7.3 and 7.4 reduce the simplicity and representation theories for Jordan Lie algops to the simplicity and representation theories for simple nil and toral Lie algops.
