Abstract

Let $L$ be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra. We say a subalgebra $H$ of $L$ is permutably complemented in $L$ if there is a subalgebra $K$ of $L$ such that $L=H+K$ and $H\cap K=0$. Also, if every subalgebra of $L$ is permutably complemented in $L$, then $L$ is called completely factorisable. In this article, we consider the influence of these concepts on the structure of a Lie algebra, in particular, we obtain some characterizations for supersolvability of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra in terms of permutably complemented subalgebras.
