Abstract:We prove that the variety of Lie algebras arising from splicing operation coincides with the variety CM of centreby-metabelian Lie algebras. Using these Lie algebras we find the minimal dimension algebras generated the variety CM and the variety of its associative envelope algebras. We study the splicing n-ary operation. We show that all n-ary (n>2) commutator algebras arising from this operation are nilpotent of index 3. We investigate the generalization of the splicing n-ary operation, and we formulate a series of open problems.
