Characteristic 2

Abstract All results concern characteristic 2. We describe two procedures; each of which to every simple Lie algebra assigns a simple Lie superalgebra. We prove that every simple finite-dimensional Lie superalgebra is obtained as the result of one of these procedures. For Lie algebras, in addition to the known “classical” restrictedness, we introduce a (2,4)-structure on the two non-alternating series: orthogonal and Hamiltonian vector fields. For Lie superalgebras, the classical restrictedness of Lie algebras has two analogs: a $2|4$-structure, which is a direct analog of the classical restrictedness, and a novel $2|2$-structure—one more analog, a $(2,4)|4$-structure on Lie superalgebras is the analog of (2,4)-structure on Lie algebras known only for non-alternating orthogonal and Hamiltonian series.

AbstractLet be a finite dimensional simple Lie algebra over the complex numbers C. Fernando reduced the classification of infinite dimensional simple -modules with a finite dimensional weight space to determining the simple torsion free -modules for of type A or C. Thesemodules were determined by Mathieu and using his work we provide a more elementary construction realizing each one as a submodule of an easily constructed tensor product module.

AbstractLet ($$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g , τ) be a real simple symmetric Lie algebra and let W ⊂ $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g be an invariant closed convex cone which is pointed and generating with τ(W) = −W. For elements h ∈ $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g with τ(h) = h, we classify the Lie algebras $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g (W, τ, h) which are generated by the closed convex cones $$ {C}_{\pm}\left(W,\tau, h\right):= \left(\pm W\right)\cap {\mathfrak{g}}_{\pm 1}^{-\tau }(h) $$ C ± W τ h ≔ ± W ∩ g ± 1 − τ h , where $$ {\mathfrak{g}}_{\pm 1}^{-\tau }(h):= \left\{x\in \mathfrak{g}:\tau (x)=-x\left[h,x\right]=\pm x\right\} $$ g ± 1 − τ h ≔ x ∈ g : τ x = − x h x = ± x . These cones occur naturally as the skew-symmetric parts of the Lie wedges of endomorphism semigroups of certain standard subspaces. We prove in particular that, if $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g (W, τ, h) is non-trivial, then it is either a hermitian simple Lie algebra of tube type or a direct sum of two Lie algebras of this type. Moreover, we give for each hermitian simple Lie algebra and each equivalence class of involutive automorphisms τ of $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g with τ(W) = −W a list of possible subalgebras $$ \mathfrak{g} $$ g (W, τ, h) up to isomorphy.

Highest Weight Representations

For many questions, both in Mathematics and in Physics, the most important representations of a Lie algebra a are those which are unitarizable and highest weight (such representations are automatically irreducible). The classification of such representations when a is a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra was completed only recently (see [3] for details and further references) and the corresponding question when a is an affine algebra was investigated by Jakobsen and Kac [5]. Theorem 3·1 of that paper contains a list of unitarizable highest weight representations which is claimed to be exhaustive. However, we shall show that this list is incomplete by constructing a further family of such representations. In fact, the classification problem in the affine case must be considered to be still open.

Type Ii

In this paper, we present a complete classification of Bianchi type II spacetime according to Ricci inheritance collineations (RICs). The RICs are classified considering cases when the Ricci tensor is both degenerate as well as non-degenerate. In case of non-degenerate Ricci tensor, it is found that Bianchi type II spacetime admits 4-, 5-, 6- or 7-dimensional Lie algebra of RICs. In the case when the Ricci tensor is degenerate, majority cases give rise to infinitely many RICs, while remaining cases admit finite RICs given by 4, 5 or 6.

AbstractWe study three related topics in representation theory of classical Lie superalgebras. The first one is classification of primitive ideals, i.e. annihilator ideals of simple modules, and inclusions between them. The second topic concerns Arkhipov’s twisting functors on the BGG category
