Abstract

In this work we associate a Lie algebra to every finite simple graph and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of degenerations between these Lie algebras. As a corollary, we obtain that all these algebras belong to the irreducible component within the variety of 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras, given by the orbit closure of the free 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra.
