Lie algebras of slow growth

Victor Petrogradsky

University of Brasilia, Brazil   -   petrogradsky@rambler.ru

We discuss rather old and recent constructions of Lie algebras and superalgebras of slow growth. In particular, we obtain examples of finitely generated (self-similar) (restricted) Lie (super)algebras of slow polynomial growth with a nil p-mapping.

By their properties, these restricted Lie (super)algebras resemble Grigorchuk and Gupta-Sidki groups. We discuss different properties of these algebras and their associative hulls.
