Abstract
We give examples of Lie ideals in a tridiagonal algebra $Alg\mathcal{L}_{\infty}$ and study some properties of Lie ideals in $Alg\mathcal{L}_{\infty}$. We also investigate relationships between Lie ideals in $Alg\mathcal{L}_{\infty}$. Let k be a fixed natural number. Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a linear manifold in $Alg\mathcal{L}_{\infty}$ such that $T_{(2k-1,2k)}=0$ for all $T{\in}\mathcal{A}$. Then $\mathcal{A}$ is a Lie ideal if and only if $T_{(2k-1,2k-1)}=T_{(2k,2k)}$ for all $T{\in}\mathcal{A}$.
