We study Lie algebras admitting para-K\"ahler and hyper-para-K\"ahler structures. We give new characterizations of these Lie algebras and we develop many methods to build large classes of examples. Bai considered para-K\"ahler Lie algebras as left symmetric bialgebras. We reconsider this point of view and improve it in order to obtain some new results. The study of para-K\"ahler and hyper-para-K\"ahler is intimately linked to the study of left symmetric algebras and, in particular, those admitting invariant symplectic forms. In this paper, we give many new classes of left symmetric algebras and a complete description of all associative algebras admitting an invariant symplectic form. We give also all four dimensional hyper-para-K\"ahler Lie algebras.

A pseudo-Euclidean non-associative algebra $(\mathfrak{g}, \bullet)$ is a real algebra of finite dimension that has a metric, i.e., a bilinear, symmetric, and non-degenerate form $\langle\;\rangle$. The metric is considered $\mathrm{L}$-invariant (resp. $\mathrm{R}$-invariant) if all left multiplications (resp. right multiplications) are skew-symmetric. The metric is called associative if $\langle u\bullet v,w\rangle= \langle u,v\bullet w\rangle$for all$u, v, w \in \mathfrak{g}$. These three notions coincide when $\mathfrak{g}$ is a Lie algebra and in this case $\mathfrak{g}$ endowed with the metric is known as a quadratic Lie algebra. This paper provides a complete description of $\mathrm{L}$-invariant, $\mathrm{R}$-invariant, or associative pseudo-Euclidean metrics on left Leibniz algebras. It shows that a left Leibniz algebra with an associative metric is also right Leibniz and can be obtained easily from its underlying Lie algebra, which is a quadratic Lie algebra. Additionally, it shows that at the core of a left Leibniz algebra endowed with a $\mathrm{L}$-invariant or $\mathrm{R}$-invariant metric, there are two Lie algebras with one quadratic and the left Leibniz algebra can be built from these Lie algebras. We derive many important results from these complete description. Finally, the paper provides a list of left Leibniz algebras with an associative metric up to dimension 6, as well as a list of left Leibniz algebras with an $\mathrm{L}$-invariant metric, up to dimension 4, and $\mathrm{R}$-invariant metric up to dimension 5.

In this paper we investigate two variants of $\alpha$-stable processes, namely tempered stable subordinators and modified tempered stable process as well as their renormalization. We study the weak convergence in the Skorohod space and prove that they satisfy the uniform tightness condition. Finally, applications to the $\alpha$-dependence of the solutions of SDEs driven by these processes are discussed.

This paper presents a numerical study of three-dimensional laminar mixed convection within a liquid flowing on a horizontal channel heated uniformly from below. The upper surface is free and assumed to be flat. The coupled Navier-Stokes and energy equations are solved numerically by the finite volume method taking into account the thermocapillary effects (Marangoni effect). When the strength of the buoyancy, thermocapillary effects and forced convective currents are comparable $(Ri\backsimeq O(1)$ and $Bd=Ra/Ma \backsimeq O(1))$, the results show that the development of instabilities in the form of steady longitudinal convective rolls is similar to those encountered in the Poiseuille-Rayleigh-B\'enard flow. The number and spatial distribution of these rolls along the channel depend on the flow conditions. The objective of this work is to study the influence of parameters, such as the Reynolds, Rayleigh and Biot numbers, on the flow patterns and heat transfer characteristics. The effects of variations in the surface tension with temperature gradients (Marangoni effect) are also considered.

A cyclic Riemannian Lie group is a Lie group $G$ equipped with a left-invariant Riemannian metric $h$ that satisfies $\oint_{X,Y,Z}h([X,Y],Z)=0$ for any left-invariant vector fields $X,Y,Z$. The initial concept and exploration of these Lie groups were presented in Monatsh. Math. \textbf{176} (2015), 219-239. This paper builds upon the results from the aforementioned study by providing a complete description of cyclic Riemannian Lie groups and an in-depth analysis of their various curvatures.
