Abstract
In this paper, we begin to study the subalgebra lattice of a Leibniz algebra. In particular, we deal with Leibniz algebras whose subalgebra lattice is modular, upper semi-modular, lower semi-modular, distributive, or dually atomistic. The fact that a non-Lie Leibniz algebra has fewer one-dimensional subalgebras in general results in a number of lattice conditions being weaker than in the Lie case.
1. Introduction
An algebra over a field F is called a Leibniz algebra if, for every
we have
In other words, the right multiplication operator is a derivation of L. As a result, such algebras are sometimes called right Leibniz algebras, and there is a corresponding notion of left Leibniz algebra. Every Lie algebra is a Leibniz algebra and every Leibniz algebra satisfying
for every element is a Lie algebra.
Leibniz algebras were first considered by Bloh in [Citation8] and Loday in [Citation18], and nowadays they play an important role in several areas of mathematics such as homological algebra, algebraic K-theory, differential geometry, algebraic topology, noncommutative geometry, etc. As a result, the theory of these algebraic structures has been developing intensively in the last three decades and many important theorems for Lie algebras have been considered in the more general context of Leibniz algebras.
Now, the set of subalgebras of a nonassociative algebra forms a lattice under the operations and
where the join
of two subalgebras is the subalgebra generated by their set-theoretic union, and the meet
is the usual intersection. The relationship between the structure of a Lie algebra L and that of the lattice
of all subalgebras of L has been studied by many authors. Much is known about modular subalgebras (modular elements in
) through a number of investigations including [Citation1, Citation12, Citation13, Citation25–27]. Other lattice conditions, together with their duals, have also been studied. These include semi-modular, upper semi-modular, lower semi-modular, upper modular, lower modular, and their respective duals. For a selection of results on these conditions see [Citation9, Citation11, Citation14, Citation15, Citation17, Citation19, Citation21, Citation22, Citation24, Citation28].
The subalgebra lattice of a Leibniz algebra, however, is rather different; in a Lie algebra every element generates a one-dimensional subalgebra, whereas in a Leibniz algebra elements can generate subalgebras of any dimension. Thus, one could expect different results to hold for Leibniz algebras and, as we shall see, this is indeed the case. In Section 2, we show that cyclic Leibniz algebras are determined by their subalgebra lattice. In Section 3, we classify Leibniz algebras over a field of characteristic zero in which every subalgebra is an intersection of maximal subalgebras; an extra family arises in the non-Lie case.
In Section 4, we study upper semi-modular Leibniz algebras. There turn out to be many more of these than in the Lie algebra case; in particular, all nilpotent cyclic Leibniz algebras and a subset of the extraspecial Leibniz algebras introduced in [Citation16] belong to this class. Section 5 is devoted to lower semi-modular Leibniz algebras. The situation here turns out to be very similar to the Lie algebra case. The final section deals with modular Leibniz algebras. We see that this is a much larger class than in the Lie algebra case; in particular, any Leibniz algebra which is of the form where E is an upper semi-modular extraspecial or a nilpotent cyclic Leibniz algebra and C is a central ideal is modular. However, these do not exhaust all of the modular Leibniz algebras even of dimension four.
We fix some notation and terminology. Unless otherwise stated, throughout the paper all algebras are assumed to be finite-dimensional. Algebra direct sums will be denoted by ⊕, whereas vector space direct sums will be denoted by
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over a field F. For a subset S of L, we denote by the subalgebra generated by S. The Leibniz kernel is defined as
Note that
is the smallest ideal of L such that
is a Lie algebra. Also,
We define the following series:
and
Then L is nilpotent of class n (respectively solvable of derived length n) if but
(respectively
but
) for some
It is straightforward to check that L is nilpotent of class n precisely when every product of n + 1 elements of L, no matter how associated, is zero, but some product of n elements is non-zero (see, e.g., Proposition 5.4 of [Citation10]). The nilradical N(L) (respectively radical, R(L)) is the largest nilpotent (respectively solvable) ideal of L.
The Frattini ideal of L, is the largest ideal contained in all maximal subalgebras of L; if
we say that L is
-free. The right centralizer of a subalgebra U of L is the set
It is easy to check that if U is an ideal of L then so is
We denote by
the socle of L, that is, the sum of all minimal ideals of L.
2. Cyclic Leibniz algebras
A Leibniz algebra L is said to be cyclic if it is generated by a single element. In this case, L has a basis (n > 1) and product
Let T be the matrix for Ra with respect to the above basis. Then T is the companion matrix for
where the pj’s are the distinct irreducible factors of p(x). We shall speak of these factors as being the distinct irreducible factors associated with L. The purpose of this short section is to characterize cyclic Leibniz algebras in terms of their subalgebra lattice. We shall need the following result, which is proved in [Citation6, Corollary 4.3].
Theorem 2.1.
The maximal subalgebras of the cyclic Leibniz algebra L are precisely the null spaces of , where
and the
are the distinct irreducible factors associated with L for
Theorem 2.2.
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over a field F with . Then L has precisely s maximal subalgebras if and only if it is cyclic with s distinct associated irreducible factors.
Proof.
Necessity follows from Theorem 2.1. To prove sufficiency, let denote the maximal subalgebras of L. Then
cannot be the whole L, since
Choose
Then x generates L.□
Corollary 2.3.
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over an infinite field. Then L is cyclic if and only if it has only finitely many maximal subalgebras.
3. Dually atomistic Leibniz algebras
We say that a Leibniz algebra L is dually atomistic if every subalgebra of L is an intersection of maximal subalgebras of L. It is easy to see that if L is dually atomistic then so is every factor algebra of L, and if L is dually atomistic then it is -free. Dually atomistic Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero were classified in [Citation19]. An extra family arises for Leibniz algebras.
Lemma 3.1.
Let L be dually atomistic and let N be the nilradical of L. Then
is an ideal of L for every maximal subalgebra M of L; and
every subspace of N is an ideal of L, and
Proof.
(i) The result is clear if so suppose that
Then
and
using Theorem 6.5 of [Citation20] (or Theorem 2.4 of [Citation5]).
(ii) We have so every subspace of N is a subalgebra of L. Let S be any subspace of N. Then
where
is the set consisting of all maximal subalgebras of L containing S. Therefore, S is an intersection of ideals of L, by (i), and so is itself an ideal of L.□
Proposition 3.2.
Let L be a solvable Leibniz algebra over any field F. Then L is dually atomistic if and only if one of the following conditions holds:
L is an abelian or almost abelian Lie algebra;
, where
and
for every
Proof.
Obviously, we can assume that L is not abelian. We first prove necessity. Let N be the nilradical of L. Then N is abelian by Lemma 3.1. As L is -free, from [Citation5, Theorems 2.4 and 2.6] it follows that
for some subalgebra V of L. As L is solvable, all minimal ideals of L are abelian. Moreover, by Lemma 3.1, every subspace of N is an ideal of L. Therefore, by [Citation5, Theorem 2.4] and [Citation2, Lemma 1.9], we deduce that
Note that the map
is an endomorphism with kernel
and so
has codimension at most one in L. Let
such that
i = 1, 2. Since every subspace of N is an ideal of L, all elements of L act by scalar multiplication on N. It follows that
which allows us to conclude that V is one-dimensional.
Let As
there exists
such that
for some
Replacing v by
we can assume that
so that Rv acts as the identity map on N. Now, if
then we have
so
Put Then I and U are ideals of L and
Clearly,
But, also, if
then we have
Finally, as every subspace of N is an ideal of L, we must have either I = 0 or U = 0, and the assertion follows.
We now prove the converse. If L is an almost abelian Lie algebra, then, by [Citation15, Proposition 1.1(3)], every subspace of L is a subalgebra, so L is obviously dually atomistic. Suppose next that L satisfies condition (ii) of the statement. Note that B + Fv is a maximal subalgebra of L for any maximal subspace B of Let H be a subalgebra of L. Let
and write
for some
and
One has
hence
This proves that either H is contained in
or is of the form
for some subalgebra A of
In the latter case, we clearly have
where
denote the set of all maximal subspaces of
containing A. On the other hand, if
then we have
where
denotes the set of all maximal subspaces of
containing H. This completes the proof.□
The combination of Theorem 3.2 with the next result yields a full characterization of dually atomistic Lie algebras over fields of characteristic zero.
Proposition 3.3.
Let L be a dually atomistic Leibniz algebra over a field of characteristic zero. Then L is a three-dimensional non-split simple Lie algebra or is solvable.
Proof.
We have that is a solvable or three-dimensional non-split simple Lie algebra by [Citation19, Lemmas 1 and 2]. In the former case, L is solvable, so suppose that the latter case holds. Then, by [Citation3, Theorem 1], we have
where S is a three-dimensional non-split simple Lie algebra and
Leib(L). Moreover, every subspace of I is an ideal of L, by Lemma 3.1 and the fact that L is
-free. Let
Then
and, for all
for some
whence
It follows that and
Therefore L is a Lie algebra, and it follows from [Citation19, Lemma 1] that I = 0, as desired.□
4. Upper semi-modular Leibniz algebras
Let L be a Leibniz algebra. A subalgebra U of L is called upper semi-modular if U is a maximal subalgebra of for every subalgebra B of L such that
is maximal in B. We say that L is upper semi-modular if every subalgebra of L is upper semi-modular in L. The Lie algebras in this class were classified in [Citation15]. There are many more Leibniz algebras in this class.
We first establish the following result, which characterizes Leibniz algebras having a distributive lattice of subalgebras.
Proposition 4.1.
The only non-Lie distributive Leibniz algebras are the two-dimensional cyclic Leibniz algebras.
Proof.
Let L be a distributive Leibniz algebra with Then
must be a distributive Lie algebra and so is one-dimensional. Now, if L has dimension greater than two, then
is an abelian Lie subalgebra of dimension greater than one, and so L is not distributive. Hence, L is two-dimensional cyclic, and it has a basis
with multiplication
or
In the former case, the only one-dimensional subalgebra is Fx2, and in the latter case the only one-dimensional subalgebras are Fx2 and
In either case, L is distributive.□
The following is a straightforward exercise.
Lemma 4.2.
Let U be a subalgebra of the Leibniz algebra L, and let I be an ideal of L contained in U. Then U is upper semi-modular in L if and only if U/I is upper semi-modular in L/I.
Lemma 4.3.
Let L be a nilpotent cyclic Leibniz algebra. Then L is upper semi-modular.
Proof.
Let L be generated by a where Suppose that U is a subalgebra of L which is not in L2. Let
Then
for some
But then it is easy to see that
are linearly independent, so U = L. Hence, all proper subalgebras of L are inside L2, which is abelian. The result follows.□
Proposition 4.4.
Let L be a non-Lie -free Leibniz algebra over any field F. Then L is upper semi-modular if and only
, where
and
for
, all other products being zero.
Proof.
Suppose first that L is upper semi-modular. Then where N is the nilradical, is abelian, and V is a subalgebra of L, by Theorems 2.4 and 2.6 of [Citation5]. Let
Then
Leib
and Fv covers
so Fn is covered by
It follows that
As this is true for all
every subspace of N is an ideal of L. Then, as in Proposition 3.2, L is abelian or an almost abelian Leibniz algebra. Now suppose that
Then Fv covers
where
Hence Fa is covered by
It follows that u = 0 and we have the multiplication claimed.
Conversely, suppose that L has the form given. Then the subalgebras of L are of the form B or Fv + B where B is a subalgebra of If
they clearly satisfy the upper semi-modular condition. Consider B and Fv + C. Then
and
If B covers
we have
for some
and
which covers Fv + C. If Fv + C covers
then
whence
and
which covers B.
Finally consider Fv + B and Fv + C. Then and
If Fv + B covers
then we have that
and
which covers Fv + C. By symmetry this is sufficient in this case. Hence L is upper semi-modular.□
Corollary 4.5.
Let L be an upper semi-modular Leibniz algebra over an algebraically closed field. Then L is supersolvable.
Proof.
If L is a Lie algebra, then the assertion follows from [Citation15, Corollary 2.2]. On the other hand, if L is non-Lie, then by Proposition 4.4 we have that is supersolvable, and hence so is L, by [Citation4, Theorems 3.9 and 5.2].□
The consideration of the three-dimensional non-split simple Lie algebras shows the hypothesis that the ground field is algebraically closed cannot be dropped in Corollary 4.5.
Lemma 4.6.
Let L be an upper semi-modular nilpotent Leibniz algebra. Then
Leib

;
, for all

Let

and
for all

Proof.
(i) Let If
then
Hence suppose that
Then

Since L is nilpotent, this implies that
and the result follows.
(ii) As is a nilpotent upper semi-modular Lie algebra, it follows from Theorem 2.2 of [Citation15] that
Consequently, we have
by (i). Suppose the result holds for i = k where
Then
which gives the result.
(iii) This is apparent from (ii).
(iv) Let Then

and
whence J is an abelian subalgebra of L. Moreover, by Theorem 2.2 of [Citation15] we have
so J is an ideal of L.
(v) Let If
then
so suppose that
Then
is covered by Fy, so
It follows that
again, which gives the first inclusion. Now
so
yielding the second inclusion.□
Following [Citation16], we say that a Leibniz algebra L is extraspecial if and
is abelian. Then we have the following result.
Proposition 4.7.
An extraspecial Leibniz algebra L is upper semi-modular if and only if is an abelian ideal of L.
Proof.
The necessity follows from Lemma 4.6(iv). Conversely, suppose that J is an abelian ideal of L and let U, B be subalgebras of L for which is a maximal subalgebra of B. We need to show that U is a maximal subalgebra of
We consider several cases.
Suppose first that If
then the result is clear. Therefore we can suppose that
Then there exists
such that
which implies that
It follows that
and so
which covers U.
Suppose so that
Then
so
It follows that
Hence covers U, completing the proof.□
5. Lower semi-modular Leibniz algebras
A subalgebra U of L is called lower semi-modular in L if is maximal in B for every subalgebra B of L such that U is maximal in
We say that L is lower semi-modular if every subalgebra of L is lower semi-modular in L.
If U, V are subalgebras of L with a J-series (or Jordan–Dedekind series) for (U, V) is a series
of subalgebras such that Ui is a maximal subalgebra of
for
This series has length equal to r. We shall call L a J-algebra if, whenever U and V are subalgebras of L with
all J-series for (U, V) have the same finite length, d(U, V). Put
The following is proved in similar manner to [Citation11, Lemma 5].
Proposition 5.1.
For a solvable Leibniz algebra the following are equivalent:
L is lower semi-modular;
L is a J-algebra; and
L is supersolvable.
Proof.
(i)(ii): This is a purely lattice theoretic result (see [Citation7, Theorem V3]).
(ii)(iii): Since L is solvable, all chains from 0 to L will have length
so all maximal subalgebras have codimension one in L. But then L is supersolvable, by [Citation4, Corollary 3.10].
(iii)(i) Let L be a supersolvable Leibniz algebra and let U, B be subalgebras of L such that U is maximal in
Then U has codimension 1 in
so
But now
whence
is maximal in B.□
The following results follow from the corresponding results in [Citation11].
Theorem 5.2.
(cf. [Citation11, Theorem 2]). Let L be a Leibniz algebra over a field F of characteristic 0. Then L is a J-algebra if and only if where the radical R is supersolvable and S is a semisimple Lie algebra which is a J-algebra. Moreover, if S is lower semi-modular then so is L.
Proof.
Let L be a J-algebra. By Levi’s Theorem [4], where R is the radical and S is a semisimple Lie subalgebra of L. Moreover, R is supersolvable and
by Proposition 5.1. We claim that
Let L be a minimal counter-example. Suppose that R is not a minimal ideal of L. Let R/K be a chief factor of L. Then for some
and the minimality implies that
and
But then
Also,
Hence is a minimal ideal of L and S is a maximal subalgebra of L. Let M be a maximal subalgebra of S. Then
But R + M is a maximal subalgebra of L, so
since R + M is a J-algebra. It follows that d(R) = 1 so R = Fr is one-dimensional. As in the first paragraph of Proposition 3.2 we have that
has codimension at most 1 in L. Suppose by contradiction that
As
we have that
is an ideal of codimension 1 in S. Then, by Weyl’s Theorem, we have
where I is a one-dimensional ideal of S, which is not possible as S is semisimple. Thus
in particular
But
a contradiction. This establishes the claim.
The converse is as in [Citation11, Theorem 2].□
Corollary 5.3.
(cf. [Citation11, Corollary 1]). Let L be a Leibniz algebra over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero. Then the following are equivalent:
L is lower semi-modular;
L is a J-algebra; and
where the radical R is supersolvable and
or S = 0.
Theorem 5.4.
(cf. [Citation11, Theorem 3]). Let L be a Leibniz algebra over a field F of characteristic zero. Then L is lower semi-modular if and only if where the radical R is supersolvable and the Si are mutually non-isomorphic three-dimensional simple algebras for
, and also
when
and the Si are indecomposable if
Proof.
The necessity follows easily from Proposition 5.1, Theorem 5.2 and [Citation11, Theorem 3].
The converse follows from Theorem 5.2 and the fact that is lower semi-modular, by [Citation11, Theorem 3].□
6. Modular Leibniz algebras
A subalgebra U of a Leibniz algebra L is called modular in L if the following two conditions hold:
(1)
(1)
(2)
(2)
In particular, quasi-ideals are modular. We call L modular if every subalgebra of L is modular in L.
In the following result we establish when a cyclic Leibniz algebra is modular:
Proposition 6.1.
A cyclic Leibniz algebra L of dimension n is modular if and only if it is one of the following two types:
nilpotent, so
where
for
, and all other products are zero; or
solvable with
where
for
, and all other products are zero.
Proof.
Let be a basis for L with
The Leibniz identity shows that
Let T be the matrix for Ra with respect to this basis, so that it is the companion matrix for
where the pj are the distinct irreducible factors of p and
Let
be the associated primary decomposition of L with respect to Ra. Then, as in [Citation6, Theorem 4.1], we have
(Note that [Citation6] concerns left Leibniz algebras, and there is a slight error in that paper in the first equation given here). Let Then
and so
is an ideal of L. Thus, L has a basis
where
for
for
Then
where
since
is an ideal of L. Hence
Let Then
Since we have k = 0 or 1. Replacing a by
we have the multiplication given in (i) or (ii).
In case (i) all of the subalgebras are inside as in Lemma 4.3, and so it is easy to check that they are modular. Then suppose that case (ii) holds. Let U be a subalgebra which is not in
and let
Then
Hence
But then
so
Similarly we have that
for
Thus U has codimension 1 in L and so is a quasi-ideal and hence modular. All other subalgebras of L are inside
and modularity is straightforward to check.□
The next result shows that the extraspecial Leibniz algebras described in Proposition 4.7 are indeed modular.
Proposition 6.2.
An extraspecial Leibniz algebra L is modular if and only if is an abelian ideal of L.
Proof.
If L is modular then it is upper semi-modular, so the necessity follows from Proposition 4.7.
Conversely, suppose that L is extraspecial and is an abelian ideal of L. It follows from the fact that modular nilpotent Lie algebras are abelian that every subalgebra of L is either inside J or is an ideal of L. The modular identities are then straightforward to check.□
In [Citation23] Towers defined a subspace U of a Leibniz algebra L to be a quasi-ideal if for every subspace V of L. Similarly we shall define a subalgebra U of L to be a weak quasi-ideal if
for every subalgebra V of L. Then we have the following result.
Proposition 6.3.
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over an algebraically closed field. The following conditions are equivalent:
L is modular;
every subalgebra of L is a weak quasi-ideal of L; and
for all
Proof.
(i) (ii): Let U, V be subalgebras of L. Since L is modular, the intervals
and
are isomorphic as lattices. As L is supersolvable (by Corollary 4.5) this implies that
whence
It follows that and U is a weak quasi-ideal of L.
(ii) (i): If we assume (ii) then the two modular identities (1) and (2) are easily checked.
(ii) (iii): If (ii) holds, then
(iii) (ii): Suppose that (iii) holds and let U, V be subalgebras of L. Then
for all
whence U is a weak quasi-ideal of L.□
Remark 6.4.
In the proof of Proposition 6.3, the assumption that the ground field is algebraically closed is only used in the implication “(i) (ii)”. Therefore, the remaining implications remain valid over arbitrary fields.
Corollary 6.5.
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over a field F. Suppose that , where Z is a central ideal of L and E is an extraspecial Leibniz algebra such that
is an abelian ideal of L. Then L is modular.
Proof.
Note that every subalgebra of L is either inside J + Z or is an ideal of L. As a consequence, if U and V are subalgebras of L, then one has that and the conclusion follows from Proposition 6.3 and Remark 6.4.□
Notice that the algebras described in Corollary 6.5 include those in which every subalgebra is an ideal, as described in [Citation16]; they are the ones for which
For our next result we shall need the following from [Citation6], which we include for the reader’s convenience.
Theorem 6.6.
([Citation6, Theorem 2.5]). Let L be a four-dimensional non-split non-Lie nilpotent Leibniz algebra with and
. Then, L is isomorphic to a Leibniz algebra spanned by
with the nonzero products given by the following:
or
In [Citation6] the authors are assuming that the algebras are defined over the complex field. However, all the basis changes made in the proof of this theorem are valid over any algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2; the only place where 2 is a problem is in the choice of s in the penultimate line. By non-split they mean that L is not a direct sum of two non-zero ideals.
Proposition 6.7.
Let L be a Leibniz algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 and suppose that Then L is modular if and only if it is of the form given in Corollary 6.5.
Proof.
Suppose first that L is modular. We use induction on the (minimal) number of generators of L as a Leibniz algebra. If L is cyclic, then it is at most two-dimensional and so is clearly of the claimed form. Hence, suppose that L is generated by two elements, x, y, say. If L has dimension 3 or less, then it is clearly of the claimed form; if not, it must have dimension 4.
A four-dimensional nilpotent modular Leibniz algebra must have a basis with
and
by Proposition 6.3. Then L must be one of the algebras given in Theorem 6.6. None of these are modular, as is shown below
That just leaves the split case. If L is a direct sum of a three-dimensional ideal and a one-dimensional ideal, then the latter is in the center and so this is of the claimed form. If it is a direct sum of two two-dimensional ideals, then it is of the form and
which cannot be written as a direct sum of
and
Assume now that the result is true for and suppose that L is generated by n + 1 elements. Then
where L1 is of the form
with E being an extraspecial Leibniz algebra and C being a central ideal of L. By considering pairs of generators and using the above we see that
say. Suppose there exists
such that
Then
is of the required form. Similarly,
if
If neither, then L is of the form
where,
is an extraspecial Leibniz algebra,
is a central ideal of L, and
which completes the proof.□
Extending the above result to the case where and n > 3 is far from straightforward. It is easy to see that any Leibniz algebra of the form
where E is extraspecial in which J is an abelian ideal, or a nilpotent cyclic algebra and C is a central ideal, is modular. However, not every nilpotent modular Leibniz algebra L has this form, even if L is four-dimensional, as the following example shows:
Example 6.8.
Let L have basis and nonzero products
(This is A25 in [Citation6, Theorem 2.6]). Then it is straightforward to check that L is modular but is not of the form given in the previous paragraph.
It would also be good to remove the requirement of an algebraically closed field in Proposition 6.7. However, this is not straightforward either, as modularity is not preserved by extending the base field, as the following example shows.
Example 6.9.
Let L be the extraspecial Leibniz algebra with
and
the other products being zero. By Proposition 6.3 and Remark 6.4, it is easy to see that L is modular over the real number field and non-modular over the complex number field. (For the latter conclusion, note that the elements x + iy and x − iy are in J but their sum is not.)
