On solvable Lie algebras of small breadth

The concept of breadth has been used in the classification of p-groups and nilpotent Lie algebras. In this paper, we investigate this notion for finite-dimensional solvable Lie algebras. Our main focus is to characterize solvable Lie algebras of breadth less than or equal to 2. More importantly, we provide a complete classification of such Lie algebras that are pure and nonnilpotent over the complex numbers.
