The Klein Quadric and the Classification of Nilpotent Lie Algebras of Class Two
Journal of Lie theory, Tome 18 (2008) no. 2, pp. 391-411
We collect information about the Klein quadric which is useful to determine the orbits of the group of all linear bijections of a four-dimensional vector space on the Grassmann manifolds of the exterior product. This information is used to classify nilpotent Lie algebras of small dimension, over arbitrary fields (including the characteristic 2 case). The invariants used are easy to read off from any set of structure constants.
