Wedderburn–Artin like theorem for infinite dimensional Lie algebras?
The Wedderburn–Artin Theorem is one of the cornerstones of the structure theory of (associative) rings.
Wedderburn–Artin Theorem : Let $R$ be a left Artinian ring with zero Jacobson radical. Then $R$ ...

Homotopes of simple Lie algebras
Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a complex simple Lie algebra with bracket $[x,y]$. For which $z\in \mathfrak{g}$ does the formula
$$
\mu(x,y)=ad (z)([x,y])=[z,[x,y]]
$$
define another Lie bracket on the same ...
