Abstract
The index of a Lie algebra is an important invariant which arises in several areas, e.g. in the study of coadjoint orbits for a Lie group, in invariant theory and in representation theory. We study the index for several classes of nilpotent Lie algebras. In particular, we give explicit formulas for free-nilpotent Lie algebras of nilpotency class two and three, or of solvability class two, for graph Lie algebras, and for filiform nilpotent Lie algebras.
