Abstract: Each matrix A in GL_n(Z) naturally defines an automorphism f of the free r-step nilpotent Lie algebra on n generators. We study the relationship between the matrix A and the eigenvalues and rational invariant subspaces for f. We give applications to the study of Anosov automorphisms.

Review text

The \(r\)-tuple of polynomials associated to an Anosov automorphism of a Lie algebra is defined. Properties of the \(r\)-tuple of polynomials, such as their reducibility and their Galois groups are described. Anosov Lie algebras for which the associated Galois group is symmetric or cyclic, are considered. The results to the problem of the classification of Anosov Lie algebras whose associated polynominal has a small degree, are applied.
