Finitary Lie algebras

Finitary Lie algebras

An algebra is called finitary if it consists of finite-rank transformations of a vector space. We classify finitary simple and finitary irreducible Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 6= 2, 3.

Lie $^*$-double derivations on Lie $C^*$-algebras

A unital $C^*$ -- algebra $mathcal A,$ endowed withthe Lie product $[x,y]=xy- yx$ on $mathcal A,$ is called a Lie$C^*$ -- algebra. Let $mathcal A$ be a Lie $C^*$ -- algebra and$g,h:mathcal A to mathcal A$ be $Bbb C$ -- linear mappings. A$Bbb C$ -- linear mapping $f:mathcal A to mathcal A$ is calleda Lie $(g,h)$ -- double derivation if$f([a,b])=[f(a),b]+[a,f(b)]+[g(a),h(b)]+[h(a),g(b)]$ for all ...

Locally semisimple and maximal subalgebras of the finitary Lie algebras gl ( ∞ ) , sl ( ∞ ) , so ( ∞ ) , and sp ( ∞ )

We describe all locally semisimple subalgebras and all maximal subalgebras of the finitary Lie algebras gl(∞), sl(∞), so(∞), and sp(∞). For simple finite–dimensional Lie algebras these classes of subalgebras have been described in the classical works of A. Malcev and E. Dynkin.

Some properties of nilpotent Lie algebras

In this article, using the definitions of central series and nilpotency in the Lie algebras, we give some results similar to the works of Hulse and Lennox in 1976 and Hekster in 1986. Finally we will prove that every non trivial ideal of a nilpotent Lie algebra nontrivially intersects with the centre of Lie algebra, which is similar to Philip Hall's result in the group theory.
