Abstract
In this paper, we propose a classification of finite-dimensional real Lie algebras that admit subalgebras of codimension two, but no subalgebra of codimension one, which leads to a description of homogeneous spaces without isotropy subgroups of codimension one. This study expands upon the existing body of research on codimension-one subalgebras, aiming to extend the analysis to a new setting. The result of this expansion is a comprehensive description of the relevant families. It is demonstrated that a such Lie algebra contains an ideal , containing the radical of , such that belongs to a list , consisting of one compact and two non compact Lie algebras.
