Abstract

This paper deals with a new series of isotopism invariants that enable us to determine explicitly the distribution of n-dimensional filiform Lie algebras into isomorphism and isotopism classes. For \(n\le 6\), this distribution is explicitly obtained over any field. For \(n=7\), this is determined over algebraically closed fields and over finite fields.
