In the present paper, we obtain a matrix representation for each of these Lie algebras. We are able to find such representations by exploiting properties of the radical, principally, when it has a trivial center, in which case we can obtain such a representation by restricting the adjoint representation. Another important subclass of algebras is where the radical has a codimension one abelian nilradical and for which a representation can readily be found. In general, finding matrix representations for abstract Lie algebras is difficult and there is no algorithmic process, nor is it at all easy to program by computer, even for algebras of low dimension. The present paper represents another step in our efforts to find linear representations for all the low dimensional abstract Lie algebras.展开更多

Let G = S+R be the Levi decomposition, where T4 is the radical of G and S is a strong semisimple subalgebra of G. Denote by re(G) the number of all minimal ideals of an indecomposable metric n-Lie algebra and R^⊥ the orthogonal complement of R. We obtain the following results. As S-modules, R^⊥ is isomorphic to the dual module of G/R. The dimension of the vector space spanned by all nondegenerate invariant symmetric bilinear forms on G is equal to that of the vector space of certain linear transformations on G; this dimension is greater than or equal to rn(G) + 1. The centralizer of T4 in G is equal to the sum of all minimal ideals; it is the direct sum of R^⊥and the center of G. Finally, G has no strong semisimple ideals if and only if R^⊥ R.展开更多
A Nash group is said to be almost linear if it has a Nash representation with a finite kernel. Structures and basic properties of these groups are studied.
