In this note “vector space” will mean “Banach space” unless otherwise specified. Accordingly “Lie algebra” will stand for “Banach Lie algebra”. Morphisms between Lie algebras will be assumed continuous. A Banach algebra B will be always assumed associative, and it will be also viewed as a Lie algebra with product [X, YXY− YX. In particular, the Lie algebra gl(V) of endomorphisms of a vector space V will be equipped with the uniform norm. A morphism of Lie algebras L → gl(V) will b called a representation of L in gl(V). Also, if B is a Banach algebra, a morphism of Lie algebras L → B will be called a representation of L in B. From such one evidently obtains a representation of L in gl(B). A representation will be called faithful if it is injective.

A form P of degree r is a homogeneous polynomial in k[Yi, …, Yn] on kn, k a field; Yi are the coordinate functions on kn. Let V(n, r) denote the k-vector space of forms of degree r. Mn(k) = Endk(kn) has canonical Lie algebra structure with [A, B] = AB-BA and it acts as a k-Lie Algebra of kderivations of degree 0 on k[Yi, …, Yn] defined by setting D(A)Y= Yo(-A) for A∈Endk(kn), Y∈V(n,l) = Homk(kn, k) and extending as a k-derivation. Define the orthogonal Lie Algebra, LO(P), of P by LO(P) =

q-Deformations of 3-Lie algebras and representations of q-3-Lie algebras are discussed. A q-3-Lie algebra [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], is a vector space A over a field 𝔽 with 3-ary linear multiplications [ , , ]q and [Formula: see text] from [Formula: see text] to A, and a map [Formula: see text] satisfying the q-Jacobi identity [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text]. If the multiplications satisfy that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is skew-symmetry, then [Formula: see text] is called a type (I)-q-3- Lie algebra. From q-Lie algebras, group algebras and commutative associative algebras, q-3-Lie algebras and type (I)-q-3-Lie algebras are constructed. Also, the non-trivial onedimensional central extension of q-3-Lie algebras is investigated, and new q-3-Lie algebras [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] are obtained.

AbstractLet A be a unital commutative associative algebra over a field of characteristic zero, a Lie algebra, and a vector space, considered as a trivial module of the Lie algebra . In this paper, we give a description of the cohomology space in terms of easily accessible data associated with A and . We also discuss the topological situation, where A and are locally convex algebras.

Let [Formula: see text] be the ring of Laurent polynomials in commuting variables. As a generalization of the toroidal Lie algebra, the gradation shifting toroidal Lie algebra [Formula: see text] is isomorphic to the corresponding (centerless) toroidal Lie algebra so(n, ℂ) ⨂ A of type B or D as a vector space, with the Lie bracket twisted by n fixed elements E1,…,En from A. In this paper, we study the automorphisms of the gradation shifting toroidal algebra [Formula: see text], which is proved to be closely related to a class of subgroups of GL(n,ℤ), called the linear groups over semilattices. We use the linear group over a special semilattice to determine the automorphism group of the gradation shifting toroidal algebra [Formula: see text], which extends our earlier work.

We prove (i) Nichols algebra 𝔅(V) of vector space V is finite dimensional if and only if Nichols braided Lie algebra 𝔏(V) is finite dimensional; (ii) if the rank of connected V is 2 and 𝔅(V) is an arithmetic root system, then 𝔅(V) = F ⊕ 𝔏(V); and (iii) if Δ(𝔅(V)) is an arithmetic root system and there does not exist any m-infinity element with puu ≠ 1 for any u ∈ D(V), then dim (𝔅(V)) = ∞ if and only if there exists V′, which is twisting equivalent to V, such that dim (𝔏-(V′)) = ∞. Furthermore, we give an estimation of dimensions of Nichols Lie algebras and two examples of Lie algebras which do not have maximal solvable ideals.

SynopsisMetrisable Lie algebras have been defined by Tsou and Walker (1957). Their definition is adopted below in § I.The object of the present paper is to display something of the geometrical background of such algebras, particularly for those taken over the field of real numbers.§ I is introductory. In § 2 appears a statement, made as brief as possible because it is wholly classical, of the relationship between the vector-space of the Lie algebra L and the associated affine and projective spaces A and P. Some properties of metrisable Lie algebras are then examined in terms of the geometry of P, which provides an (n –I)-dimensional map of the n-dimensional algebra L. It is assumed throughout the paper that the Lie algebras under discussion are non-abelian, since the projective map of an abelian algebra presents nothing of interest.As the present work is intended as no more than a preliminary, it is confined, so far as its applications are concerned, to a discussion of metrisable algebras of dimensions 3 and 4 and to one example of an algebra of dimension 6.I have been privileged in preparing the paper to have access to the typescript of the paper by Tsou and Walker referred to above, and also to the doctoral thesis (1955) of the former. I am greatly indebted to them both, and also to Dr Paul Cohn and to a referee for suggestions regarding certain details of presentation.

In the paper it is shown that the two-dimensional dynamical system of equations is Darboux integrable if and only if its characteristic Lie algebra is finite-dimensional. The class of systems having a full set of fist and second order integrals is described.

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.

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.
