Hello SeqFans,
I found the following in my old notes from the lectures of A.A.Kirillov
on the representation theory:
All nilpotent Lie algebras in dimension 1 and 2 are abelian. Thus, for
dimensions 1 and 2 the number of irreducible nilpotent Lie algebras is
1 and 0 correspondingly.
In dimension 3 (also 4) there is only one irreducible nilpotent lie
algebra (corresponding to the Heisenberg group).
In dimension 5, the number is 6.
In dimension 6 - 23.
In dimension 7 a parameter appears and the number becomes a continuum.
I think there should be a sequence here, but I am not sure what to do
with continuum. Also, my notes are so old, that I would like someone to
confirm that the sequence indeed is: 1,0,1,1,6,23
Best, Tanya
