In this paper we calculate cohomology of a classical Lie algebra of type A2 over an algebraically field k of characteristic p = 3 with coefficients in simple modules. To describe their structure we will consider them as modules over an algebraic group SL3(k). In the case of characteristic p = 3, there are only two peculiar simple modules: a simple that module isomorphic to the quotient module of the adjoint module by the center, and a one-dimensional trivial module. The results on the cohomology of simple nontrivial module are used for calculating the cohomology of the adjoint module. We also calculate cohomology of the simple quotient algebra Lie of A2 by the center.

AbstractLet 𝓰 be a compact simple Lie algebra of dimension d. It is a classical result that the convolution of any d non-trivial, G-invariant, orbitalmeasures is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure on 𝓰, and the sum of any d non-trivial orbits has non-empty interior. The number d was later reduced to the rank of the Lie algebra (or rank +1 in the case of type An). More recently, the minimal integer k = k(X) such that the k-fold convolution of the orbital measure supported on the orbit generated by X is an absolutely continuous measure was calculated for each X ∈ 𝓰.In this paper 𝓰 is any of the classical, compact, simple Lie algebras. We characterize the tuples (X1 , . . . , XL), with Xi ∊ 𝓰, which have the property that the convolution of the L-orbital measures supported on the orbits generated by the Xi is absolutely continuous, and, equivalently, the sum of their orbits has non-empty interior. The characterization depends on the Lie type of 𝓰 and the structure of the annihilating roots of the Xi. Such a characterization was previously known only for type An.

We construct a realization of a deformation of the Lie algebra of a group in terms of the generators of the classical Lie algebra of the group. The construction works for arbitrary (odd) deforming functions and, as a special case, it reproduces the standard quantum deformation of the algebra. For all these functions it gives a co-multiplication, that is, a group homomorphism, and provides an antipode and a co-unit. It therefore promotes any arbitrary deformation into a Hopf algebra.
