Let R be a commutative algebra over a field k. We prove two related results on the simplicity of Lie algebras acting as derivations of R. If D is both a Lie subalgebra and R-submodule of Der k R such that R is D-simple and either char k = 2 or D is not cyclic as an R-module or D R = R, then we show

Let R be an arbitrary commutative ring with identity. Denote by t the Lie algebra over R consisting of all upper triangular n by n matrices over R and let b be the Lie subalgebra of t consisting of all matrices of trace 0. The aim of this paper is to give an explicit description of the automorphism
Let \(R\) be a non-trivial commutative ring having no idempotents except 0 and 1 . Denote by \(t\) the Lie algebra over \(R\) consisting of all upper triangular \(n\) by \(n\) matrices over \(R\). We give an explicit description of the automorphism group of this Lie algebra. 1994 Academic Press, Inc
