Field Of Positive Characteristic

A method is presented that allows one to compute the maximum number of functionally-independent invariant functions under the action of a linear algebraic group as long as its Lie algebra admits a basis of square-zero matrices even on a field of positive characteristic. The class of such Lie algebras is studied in the framework of the classical Lie algebras of arbitrary characteristic. Some examples and applications are also given.

Simple Lie Algebras

AbstractLet G be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field with Lie algebra g. Then the orbits of nilpotent elements of g under the adjoint action of G have been classified. We describe a simple algorithm for finding a representative of a nilpotent orbit. We use this to compute lists of representatives of these orbits for the Lie algebras of exceptional type. Then we give two applications. The first one concerns settling a conjecture by Elashvili on the index of centralizers of nilpotent orbits, for the case where the Lie algebra is of exceptional type. The second deals with minimal dimensions of centralizers in centralizers.

Abelian Subgroups

The maximal finite abelian subgroups, up to conjugation, of the simple algebraic group of type E8 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are computed. This is equivalent to the determination of the fine gradings on the simple Lie algebra of type E8 with trivial neutral homogeneous component. The Brauer invariant of the irreducible modules for graded semisimple Lie algebras plays a key role.

Filiform Lie Algebras

We investigate the existence of affine structures on nilmanifolds Γ\G in the case where the Lie algebra g of the Lie group G is filiform nilpotent of dimension less or equal to 11. Here we obtain examples of nilmanifolds without any affine structure in dimensions 10, 11. These are new counterexamples to the Milnor conjecture. So far examples in dimension 11 were known where the proof is complicated, see [5] and [4]. Using certain 2-cocycles we realize the filiform Lie algebras as deformation algebras from a standard graded filiform algebra. Thus we study the affine algebraic variety of complex filiform nilpotent Lie algebra structures of a given dimension ≤11. This approach simplifies the calculations, and the counterexamples in dimension 10 are less complicated than the known ones. We also obtain results for the minimal dimension µ(g) of a faithful g-module for these filiform Lie algebras g.

AbstractLet G be a connected reductive algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We consider the commuting variety of the nilradical of the Lie algebra of a Borel subgroup B of G. In case B acts on with only a finite number of orbits, we verify that is equidimensional and that the irreducible components are in correspondence with the distinguishedB-orbits in . We observe that in general is not equidimensional, and determine the irreducible components of in the minimal cases where there are infinitely many B-orbits in .

Entropy Functions

Equations of hydrodynamic type with the equation of state in the form of pressure separated into a sum of density and entropy functions are considered. Such a system of equations admits a twelve-dimensional Lie algebra. In the case of the equation of state of the general form, the equations of gas dynamics admit an eleven-dimensional Lie algebra. For both Lie algebras the optimal systems of non-similar subalgebras are constructed. In this paper two partially invariant submodels of rank 3 defect 1 are constructed for two-dimensional subalgebras of the twelve-dimensional Lie algebra. The reduction of the constructed submodels to invariant submodels of eleven-dimensional and twelve-dimensional Lie algebras is proved.

The Absolute

We study a relative variant of Serre’s notion of $G$ -complete reducibility for a reductive algebraic group $G$ . We let $K$ be a reductive subgroup of $G$ , and consider subgroups of $G$ that normalize the identity component $K^{\circ }$ . We show that such a subgroup is relatively $G$ -completely reducible with respect to $K$ if and only if its image in the automorphism group of $K^{\circ }$ is completely reducible. This allows us to generalize a number of fundamental results from the absolute to the relative setting. We also derive analogous results for Lie subalgebras of the Lie algebra of $G$ , as well as ‘rational’ versions over nonalgebraically closed fields.

We study the structure of n-Lie algebras with involutive derivations for n≥2. We obtain that a 3-Lie algebra A is a two-dimensional extension of Lie algebras if and only if there is an involutive derivation D on A=A1  ∔  A-1 such that dim A1=2 or dim A-1=2, where A1 and A-1 are subspaces of A with eigenvalues 1 and -1, respectively. We show that there does not exist involutive derivations on nonabelian n-Lie algebras with n=2s for s≥1. We also prove that if A is a (2s+2)-dimensional (2s+1)-Lie algebra with dim A1=r, then there are involutive derivations on A if and only if r is even, or r satisfies 1≤r≤s+2. We discuss also the existence of involutive derivations on (2s+3)-dimensional (2s+1)-Lie algebras.
