On the cohomology of vector fields on parallelizable manifolds
In the present paper we determine for each parallelizable smooth compact manifold the second cohomology spaces of the Lie algebra of smooth vector fields on with values in the module . The case of is of particular interest since the gauge algebra of functions on with values in a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra has the universal central extension with center , generalizing affine Kac-Moody algebras. The second cohomology classifies twists of the semidirect product of with the...
On the Lie algebra of holomorphic infinitesimal isometries of some classical complex symmetric Banach manifolds
The Banach-Lie algebras ℌκ of all holomorphic infinitesimal isometries of the classical symmetric complex Banach manifolds of compact type (κ = 1) and non compact type (κ = −1) associated with a complex JB*-triple Z are considered and the Lie ideal structure of ℌκ is studied.
On universal enveloping algebras in a topological setting
We study some embeddings of suitably topologized spaces of vector-valued smooth functions on topological groups, where smoothness is defined via differentiability along continuous one-parameter subgroups. As an application, we investigate the canonical correspondences between the universal enveloping algebra, the invariant local operators, and the convolution algebra of distributions supported at the unit element of any finite-dimensional Lie group, when one passes from finite-dimensional Lie groups...
One-parameter subgroups and the B-C-H formula
An algebraic scheme for Lie theory of topological groups with "large" families of one-parameter subgroups is proposed. Such groups are quotients of "𝔼ℝ-groups", i.e. topological groups equipped additionally with the continuous exterior binary operation of multiplication by real numbers, and generated by special ("exponential") elements. It is proved that under natural conditions on the topology of an 𝔼ℝ-group its group multiplication is described by the B-C-H formula in terms of the associated...

Relationships between generalized Heisenberg algebras and the classical Heisenberg algebra
A Lie algebra is called a generalized Heisenberg algebra of degree n if its centre coincides with its derived algebra and is n-dimensional. In this paper we define for each positive integer n a generalized Heisenberg algebra 𝓗ₙ. We show that 𝓗ₙ and 𝓗 ₁ⁿ, the Lie algebra which is the direct product of n copies of 𝓗 ₁, contain isomorphic copies of each other. We show that 𝓗ₙ is an indecomposable Lie algebra. We prove that 𝓗ₙ and 𝓗 ₁ⁿ are not quotients of each other when n ≥ 2, but 𝓗 ₁ is a...

Self-similar Lie algebras
We give a general definition of branched, self-similar Lie algebras, and show that important examples of Lie algebras fall into that class. We give sufficient conditions for a self-similar Lie algebra to be nil, and prove in this manner that the self-similar algebras associated with Grigorchuk’s and Gupta–Sidki’s torsion groups are nil as well as self-similar.We derive the same results for a class of examples constructed by Petrogradsky, Shestakov and Zelmanov.
