Let [Formula: see text] be a relatively free Lie algebra of finite rank [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] be the completion of [Formula: see text] with respect to the topology defined by the lower central series [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text]. We prove that, with respect to the formal power series topology, the automorphism group [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is dense in the automorphism group [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] if and only if [Formula: see text] is nilpotent. Furthermore, we show that there exists a dense subgroup of [Formula: see text] generated by [Formula: see text] and a finite set of IA-automorphisms if and only if [Formula: see text] is generated by [Formula: see text] and a finite set of IA-automorphisms independent upon [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text]. We apply our study to several varieties of Lie algebras.

In the paper [13], for an arbitrary virtual link [Formula: see text], three groups [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] were defined. In the present paper, these groups for the virtual trefoil are investigated. The structure of these groups are found out and the fact that some of them are not isomorphic to each other is proved. Also, we prove that [Formula: see text] distinguishes the Kishino knot from the trivial knot. The fact that these groups have the lower central series which does not stabilize on the second term is noted. Hence, we have a possibility to study these groups using quotients by terms of the lower central series and to construct representations of these groups in rings of formal power series. It allows to construct an invariants for virtual knots.

Let R be a principal and integral domain. We say that two differential graded free Lie algebras over R (free dgl for short) are weakly equivalent if and only if the homologies of their corresponding enveloping universal algebras are isomophic. This paper is devoted to the problem of how we can characterize the weakly equivalent class of a free dgl. Our tool to address this question is the Whitehead exact sequence. We show, under a certain condition, that two R-free dgls are weakly equivalent if and only if their Whitehead sequences are isomorphic.

AbstractLet r be a positive integer, F a field of odd prime characteristic p, and L the free Lie algebra of rank r over F. Consider L a module for the symmetric group , of all permutations of a free generating set of L. The homogeneous components Ln of L are finite dimensional submodules, and L is their direct sum. For p ≤ r ≤ 2p, the main results of this paper identify the non-porojective indecomposable direct summands of the Ln as Specht modules or dual Specht modules corresponding to certain partitions. For the case r = p, the multiplicities of these indecomposables in the direct decompositions of the Ln are also determined, as are the multiplicities of the projective indecomposables. (Corresponding results for p = 2 have been obtained elsewhere.)

AbstractIn group theory Schreier's technique provides a basis for a subgroup of a free group. In this paper an analogue is developed for free Lie algebras. It hinges on the idea of cutting a Hall set into two parts. Using it, we show that proper subalgebras of finite codimension are not finitely generated and, following M. Hall, that a finitely generated subalgebra is a free factor of a subalgebra of finite codimension.

We investigate equations of the form [x,u] + [y,v] = 0 over a free Lie algebra L. In the case where u and v are free generators of L, we exhibit two series of solutions, we work out the dimensions of the homogeneous components of the solution space, and we determine its radical. In the general case we show that the results on free generator coefficients are sufficient to obtain the solution space up to finite codimension. As an application we determine the radical of the bilinear equation [x1,x2] + [x3,x4] = 0.

Recently, the author has suggested a series of dimensions of algebras which includes as first terms dimension of a vector space, Gelfand–Kirillov dimension, and superdimension. These dimensions enabled us to describe the change of the growth in the transition from a Lie algebra to its universal enveloping algebra. In fact, this is a result on some generalized partitions. In this paper, we obtain more precise asymptotics for generalized partitions. As a main application, we obtain more precise asymptotics for the growth of free polynilpotent finitely generated Lie algebras. As a corollary, we specify the asymptotic growth of the lower central series ranks for free polynilpotent finitely generated groups. We essentially use Hilbert–Poincaré series and some facts on the growth of functions analytic in the unit circle. By the growth of such functions, we mean their growth when the variable tends to 1. Finally, we study two kinds of p-central series for free polynilpotent finitely generated groups. We obtain asymptotics for the ranks of these series, in one case we have an example of a polynomial, but not rational growth.
