On dimension of the Schur multiplier of nilpotent Lie algebras

Let L be an n-dimensional non-abelian nilpotent Lie algebra and $ s(L) = \frac{1} {2}(n - 1)(n - 2) + 1 - \dim M(L) $ s(L) = \frac{1} {2}(n - 1)(n - 2) + 1 - \dim M(L) where M(L) is the Schur multiplier of L. In [Niroomand P., Russo F., A note on the Schur multiplier of a nilpotent Lie algebra, Comm. Algebra (in press)] it has been shown that s(L) ≥ 0 and the structure of all nilpotent Lie algebras has been determined when s(L) = 0. In the present paper, we will characterize all finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras with s(L) = 1; 2.     

Kostant's problem,Goldie rank and the Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture

Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra andU(g) its enveloping algebra. GivenM a simpleU(g) module, letL(M, M) denote the subspace of ad g finite elements of Hom(M, M). Kostant has asked if the natural homomorphism ofU(g) intoL(M, M) is surjective. Here the question is analysed for simple modules with a highest weight vector. This has a negative answer if g admits roots of different length ([7], 6.5). Here general conditions are obtained under whichU(g)/AnnM andL(M, M) have the same ring of fractions—in particular this is shown to always hold if g has only typeA _n factors. Combined with [21], this provides a method for determining the Goldie ranks for the primitive quotients ofU(g). Their precise form is given in typeA _n (Cartan notation) for which the generalized Gelfand-Kirillov conjecture for primitive quotients is also established.This paper was written while the author was a guest of the Institute for Advanced Studies, the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and on leave of absence from the Centre Nationale de la Recherche Scientifique     

(<Emphasis Type="Italic">o</Emphasis>)-Topology in *-algebras of locally measurable operators

We consider the topology t( M ) t\left( \mathcal{M} \right) of convergence locally in measure in the *-algebra LS( M ) LS\left( \mathcal{M} \right) of all locally measurable operators affiliated to the von Neumann algebra M \mathcal{M} . We prove that t( M ) t\left( \mathcal{M} \right) coincides with the (o)-topology in LS_h( M ) = { T ? LS( M ):T* = T } L{S_h}\left( \mathcal{M} \right) = \left\{ {T \in LS\left( \mathcal{M} \right):T* = T} \right\} if and only if the algebra M \mathcal{M} is σ-finite and is of finite type. We also establish relations between t( M ) t\left( \mathcal{M} \right) and various topologies generated by a faithful normal semifinite trace on M \mathcal{M} .     

The localization of 1-cohomology of transitive Lie algebroids

For a transitive Lie algebroid A on a connected manifold M and its representation on a vector bundle F, we define a morphism of cohomology groups rk: Hk(A,F) → Hk(Lx,Fx), called the localization map, where Lx is the adjoint algebra at x ∈ M. The main result in this paper is that if M is simply connected, or H (LX,FX) is trivial, then T is injective. This means that the Lie algebroid 1-cohomology is totally determined by the 1-cohomology of its adjoint Lie algebra in the above two cases.     

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).     

A synopsis of Combinatorial Integral Geometry

A Lie coalgebra is a coalgebra whose comultiplication Δ : M → M ? M satisfies the Lie conditions. Just as any algebra A whose multiplication ? : A ? A → A is associative gives rise to an associated Lie algebra $\text{L}$(A), so any coalgebra C whose comultiplication Δ : C → C ? C is associative gives rise to an associated Lie coalgebra $\text{L}$^c(C). The assignment C ? $\text{L}$^c(C) is functorial. A universal coenveloping coalgebra Uc(M) is defined for any Lie Lie coalgebra M by asking for a right adjoint U^c to $\text{L}$^c. This is analogous to defining a universal enveloping algebra U(L) for any Lie algebra L by asking for a left adjoint U to the functor $\text{L}$. In the case of Lie algebras, the unit (i.e., front adjunction) 1 → $\text{L}$ o U of the adjoint functor pair U ? $\text{L}$ is always injective. This follows from the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem, and is equivalent to it in characteristic zero (x = 0). It is, therefore, natural to inquire about the counit (i.e., back adjunction) $\text{L}$^c o U^c → 1 of the adjoint functor pair $\text{L}$^c ? U^c.Theorem. For any Lie coalgebra M, the natural map$\text{L}$^c(U^cM) → M is surjective if and only if M is locally finite, (i.e., each element of M lies in a finite dimensional sub Lie coalgebra of M).An example is given of a non locally finite Lie coalgebra. The existence of such an example is surprising since any coalgebra C whose diagonal Δ is associative is necessarily locally finite by a result of that theory. The present paper concludes with a development of an analog of the Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt theorem for Lie algebras which we choose to call the Dual Poincaré-Birkhoff-Witt Theorem and abbreviate by “The Dual PBWθ.” The constraints of the present paper, however, allow only a sketch of this theorem. A complete proof will appear in a subsequent paper. The reader may, however, consult [12], in the meantime, for details. The Dual PBWθ shows for any locally finite Lie coalgebra M the existence (in χ = 0) of a natural isomorphism of the graded Hopf algebras ₀E(U^cM) and ₀E(S^cM) associated to U^cM and to S^cM = U^c(TrivM) when U^c(M) and S^c(M) are given the Lie filtrations. [Just as U^c(M) is the analog of the enveloping algebra U(L) of a Lie algebra L, so S^c(V) is the analog of the symmetric algebra S(V) on a vector space V. Triv(M) denotes the trivial Lie coalgebra structure on the underlying vector space of M obtained by taking the comultiplication to be the zero map.]     

A remark on the genericity of multiplicity results for forced oscillations on manifolds

We discuss the genericity of some multiplicity results for periodically perturbed autonomous first- and second-order ODEs on manifolds.?In particular, the genericity of the following property is investigated: if the differentiable manifold M is compact, then the equation _π=h(x,)+f(t,x,) on M has |χ(M)| geometrically distinct T-periodic solutions for any small enough T-periodic perturbing function f.

Identities of representations of nilpotent lie algebras

Lret N be a nilpotent of class 2 Lie algebra with one-dimensional centre C = Kc over an infinite field K and let p : N → End_k:(V) be a representation of N in a vector space V such that p(c) is invertible in End_k(V). We find a basis for the identities of the representation p. As consequences we obtain a basis for all the weak polynomial identities of the pair (M₂:(K), s1₂(K)) over an infinite field K of characteristic 2 and describe the identities of the regular representation of Lie algebras related with the Weyl algebra and its tensor powers.     

On the Twistor Spaces of Almost Hermitian Manifolds

We study Grassmannian bundles G_k(M) of analytical 2k-planes over an almost Hermitian manifold M²ⁿ, from the point of view of the generalized twistor spaces of [13], and with the method of the moving frame [9]. G₁(M⁴) is the classical twistor space. We find four distinguished almost Hermitian structures, one of them being that of [13], and discuss their integrability and Kählerianity. For n=2, we compute the corresponding Hermitian connections, and derive consequences about the corresponding first Chern classes.     

Matrices with zero trace

LetM _n(F) denote the algebra ofn-square matrices with elements in a fieldF. In this paper we show that ifM ∈M _n(F) has zero trace thenM=AB−BA for certainA, B ∈ M _n(F), withA nilpotent and traceB=0, apart from some exceptional cases whenn=2 or 3. We also determine whenM=MB−BM for someB ∈ M _n(F). The preparation of this paper was supported in part by the U.S. Air Force under contract AFOSR 698-65.

On the curvatures of Einstein spaces

For a pseudo-Riemannian manifold (M, g) of dimensionn3, we introduce a scalar curvature functionS(V) for non-degenerate subspacesV ofT _pM which is a generalization of the scalar curvature, and give some characterizations of Einstein spaces in terms of this scalar curvature function. We also give a characterization for spaces of constant curvature. As an application of our results, we show that the Ricci curvature or the sectional curvature of a Lorentz manifold is constant if the scalar curvature function for non-degenerate subspaces is bounded.Partially supported by the grants from TGRC.     

Prime non-Lie modules for Mal'tsev superalgebras

A module V for a superalgebra A is called prime if any two of its nonzero submodules have a nonzero intersection, and no nonzero submodule is annihilated by a nonzero ideal of A. We prove that if V is a prime module for a Mal'tsev superalgebra M = M₀+M₁, one of the following cases is realized:

Nonlinear Lie derivations on upper triangular matrices

Let M _n (𝔸) and T _n (𝔸) be the algebra of all n?×?n matrices and the algebra of all n?×?n upper triangular matrices over a commutative unital algebra 𝔸, respectively. In this note we prove that every nonlinear Lie derivation from T _n (𝔸) into M _n (𝔸) is of the form A?→?AT???TA?+?A _??+?ξ(A)I _n , where T?∈?M _n (𝔸), ??:?𝔸?→?𝔸 is an additive derivation, ξ?:?T _n (𝔸)?→?𝔸 is a nonlinear map with ξ(AB???BA)?=?0 for all A,?B?∈?T _n (𝔸) and A _? is the image of A under???applied entrywise.     

Flat Riemannian Manifolds as Torus Bundles

Vasquez showed that for any finite group G there exists a number n(G) such that for every flat Riemannian manifold M with holonomy group G there exists a fiber bundle T → M → N, where T is a flat torus and N is a flat manifold of dimension less than or equal to n(G). We show that n(H) ≤ n(G) if H Δ leftG or G = N ? H and use this result to describe groups with the Vasquez number equal to 2 or 3.     

The Frattini p-subsystem of a solvable restricted Lie triple system

As a natural generalization of a restricted Lie algebra, a restricted Lie triple system was defined by Hodge. In this paper, we develop initially the Frattini theory for restricted Lie triple systems, generalize some results of Frattini p-subalgebra for restricted Lie algebras, obtain some properties of the Frattini p-subsystem and give the relationship between Фp（T） and Ф（T） for solvable Lie triple systems.     

Lie group structures on groups of smooth and holomorphic maps on non-compact manifolds

We study Lie group structures on groups of the form C ^∞(M, K), where M is a non-compact smooth manifold and K is a, possibly infinite-dimensional, Lie group. First we prove that there is at most one Lie group structure with Lie algebra for which the evaluation map is smooth. We then prove the existence of such a structure if the universal cover of K is diffeomorphic to a locally convex space and if the image of the left logarithmic derivative in is a smooth submanifold, the latter being the case in particular if M is one-dimensional. We also obtain analogs of these results for the group of holomorphic maps on a complex manifold with values in a complex Lie group K. We further show that there exists a natural Lie group structure on if K is Banach and M is a non-compact complex curve with finitely generated fundamental group.      

A Characterization of Stem Algebras in Terms of Central Derivations

Let L be a Lie algebra, and Der _z (L) denote the set of all central derivations of L, that is, the set of all derivations of L mapping L into the center. In this paper, by using the notion of isoclinism, we study the center of Der _z (L) for nilpotent Lie algebras with nilindex 2. We also give a characterization of stem Lie algebras by their central derivations. In fact we show that for non-abelian nilpotent Lie algebras of finite dimension and any nilpotent Lie algebra with nilindex 2 (not finite dimensional in general), Der _z (L) is abelian if and only if L is a stem Lie algebra.     

On the pseudohermitian sectional curvature of a strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold

We show that the pseudohermitian sectional curvature Hθ(σ) of a contact form θ on a strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold M measures the difference between the lengths of a circle in a plane tangent at a point of M and its projection on M by the exponential map associated to the Tanaka-Webster connection of (M,θ). Any Sasakian manifold (M,θ) whose pseudohermitian sectional curvature Kθ(σ) is a point function is shown to be Tanaka-Webster flat, and hence a Sasakian space form of φ-sectional curvature c=−3. We show that the Lie algebra i(M,θ) of all infinitesimal pseudohermitian transformations on a strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold M of CR dimension n has dimension ?²(n+1) and if dimRi(M,θ)=²(n+1) then Hθ(σ)= constant.
