Applications of algebras in physics are related to the connection of measurable observables to relevant elements of the algebras, usually the generators. However, in the determination of the generators in Lie algebras there is place for some arbitrary conventions. The situation is much more involved in the context of quantum algebras, where inside the quantum universal enveloping algebra, we have not enough primitive elements that allow for a privileged set of generators and all basic sets are equivalent. In this paper we discuss how the Drinfeld double structure underlying every simple Lie bialgebra characterizes uniquely a particular basis without any freedom, completing the Cartan program on simple algebras. By means of a perturbative construction, a distinguished deformed basis (we call it the analytical basis) is obtained for every quantum group as the analytical prolongation of the above defined Lie basis of the corresponding Lie bialgebra. It turns out that the whole construction is unique, so to each quantum universal enveloping algebra is associated one and only one bialgebra. In this way the problem of the classification of quantum algebras is moved to the classification of bialgebras. In order to make this procedure more clear, we discuss in detail the simple cases of su(2) and su_q(2).
We investigate some properties of Rota-Baxter operators on BiHom-Lie algebras. Along the way, we introduce BiHom analogues of pre-Lie and Leibniz algebras.
We construct an associative product on the symmetric module S(L) of any pre-Lie algebra L. Then we proove that in the case of rooted trees our construction is dual to that of Connes and Kreimer. We also show that symmetric brace algebras and pre-Lie algebras are the same. Finally, using brace algebras instead of pre-Lie algebras, we give a similar interpretation of Foissy's Hopf algebra of planar rooted trees.
We associate elliptic affine Lie algebras with what are called vertex $\C((z))$-algebras and their modules in a certain category. In the course, we construct two families of Lie algebras closely related to elliptic affine Lie algebras.
We introduce a notion of Hopf-Lie-Rinehart algebra and show that the universal algebra of a Hopf-Lie-Rinehart algebra acquires an ordinary Hopf algebra structure.
In this paper, we study a family of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras $\widehat{X}_{S}$, where $X$ stands for the type: $A,B,C,D$, and $S$ is an abelian group, which generalize the $A,B,C,D$ series of trigonometric Lie algebras. Among the main results, we identify $\widehat{X}_{S}$ with what are called the covariant algebras of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\mathcal{L}_{S}}$ with respect to some automorphism groups, where $\mathcal{L}_{S}$ is an explicitly defined associative algebra viewed as a Lie algebra. We then show that restricted $\widehat{X}_{S}$-modules of level $\ell$ naturally co…
In this paper, we study nullity-2 toroidal extended affine Lie algebras in the context of vertex algebras and their $ϕ$-coordinated modules. Among the main results, we introduce a variant of toroidal extended affine Lie algebras, associate vertex algebras to the variant Lie algebras, and establish a canonical connection between modules for toroidal extended affine Lie algebras and $ϕ$-coordinated modules for these vertex algebras. Furthermore, by employing some results of Billig, we obtain an explicit realization of irreducible modules for the variant Lie algebras.
In this paper, we give a unified construction of vertex algebras arising from infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, including the affine Kac-Moody algebras, Virasoro algebras, Heisenberg algebras and their higher rank analogs, orbifolds and deformations. We define a notion of what we call quasi vertex Lie algebra to unify these Lie algebras. Starting from any (maximal) quasi vertex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, we construct a corresponding vertex Lie algebra ${\mathfrak{g}}_0$, and establish a canonical isomorphism between the category of restricted $\mathfrak{g}$-modules and that of equivariant $ϕ…
Given a simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra and an automorphism of finite order, one defines the notion of a twisted toroidal Lie algebra. In this paper, we construct representations of twisted toroidal Lie algebras from twisted modules over affine and lattice vertex algebras.
The notions of Lie color 2-algebras and 2-term color L-infty-algebras over a group-graded vector space are introduced and studied. It is proved that the category of Lie color 2-algebras and the category of 2-term color L1-algebras are equivalent. We construct Lie color 2-algebras from omni-Lie color algebras and Leibniz color algebras. Some example of $Z^2_2$ -graded Lie color 2-algebras are given.
Representations of color Hom-Lie algebras are reviewed, and it is shown that there exist a series of coboundary operators. We also introduce the notion of a color omni-Hom-Lie algebra associated to a vector space and an even invertible linear map. We show how regular color Hom-Lie algebra structures on a vector space can be characterized. Moreover, it is shown that the underlying algebraic structure of the color omni-Hom-Lie algebra is a color Hom-Leibniz algebra.
We prove that free pre-Lie algebras, when considered as Lie algebras, are free. Working in the category of S-modules, we define a natural filtration on the space of generators. We also relate the symmetric group action on generators with the structure of the anticyclic PreLie operad.
In this paper, we explore natural connections among trigonometric Lie algebras, (general) affine Lie algebras, and vertex algebras. Among the main results, we obtain a realization of trigonometric Lie algebras as what were called the covariant algebras of the affine Lie algebra $\widehat{\mathcal{A}}$ of Lie algebra $\mathcal{A}=\frak{gl}_{\infty}\oplus\frak{gl}_{\infty}$ with respect to certain automorphism groups. We then prove that restricted modules of level $\ell$ for trigonometric Lie algebras naturally correspond to equivariant quasi modules for the affine vertex algebras $V_{\widehat{\…
In this paper,we will show how to kill the obstructions to Lie algebra deformations via a method which essentially embeds a Lie algebra into Strong homotopy Lie algebra or $L_{\infty}$ algebra. All such obstructions have been transfered to the revelvant $L_{\infty}$ algebras which contain only three terms
Lie-Rinehart algebras, also known as Lie algebroids, give rise to Hopf algebroids by a universal enveloping algebra construction, much as the universal enveloping algebra of an ordinary Lie algebra gives a Hopf algebra, of infinite dimension. In finite characteristic, the universal enveloping algebra of a restricted Lie algebra admits a quotient Hopf algebra which is finite-dimensional if the Lie algebra is. Rumynin has shown that suitably defined restricted Lie algebroids allow to define restricted universal enveloping algebras that are finitely generated projective if the Lie algebroid is. T…
The purpose of this paper is to generalize some results on $n$-Lie algebras and $n$-Hom-Lie algebras to $n$-Hom-Lie color algebras. Then we introduce and give some constructions of $n$-Hom-Lie color algebras.
Braided m-Lie algebras induced by multiplication are introduced, which generalize Lie algebras, Lie color algebras and quantum Lie algebras. The necessary and sufficient conditions for the braided m-Lie algebras to be strict Jacobi braided Lie algebras are given. Two classes of braided m-Lie algebras are given, which are generalized matrix braided m-Lie algebras and braided m-Lie subalgebras of $End_F M$, where $M$ is a Yetter-Drinfeld module over $B$ with dim $B< \infty $ . In particular, generalized classical braided m-Lie algebras $sl_{q, f}(GM_G(A), F)$ and $osp_{q, t} (GM_G(A), M, F)$ of …
In this paper the universal enveloping algebra of color hom-Lie algebras is studied. A construction of the free involutive hom-associative color algebra on a hom-module is described and applied to obtain the universal enveloping algebra of an involutive hom-Lie color algebra. Finally, the construction is applied to obtain the well-known Poincar{é}-Birkhoff-Witt theorem for Lie algebras to the enveloping algebra of an involutive color hom-Lie algebra.
A pre-Lie-Rinehart algebra is an algebraic generalization of the notion of a left-symmetric algebroid. We construct pre-Lie-Rinehart algebras from r-matrices through Lie algebra actions. We study cohomologies of pre-Lie-Rinehart algebras and show that abelian extensions of pre-Lie-Rinehart algebras are classified by the second cohomology groups. We introduce the notion of crossed modules for pre-Lie-Rinehart algebras and show that they are classified by the third cohomology groups of pre-Lie-Rinehart algebras. At last, we use (pre-)Lie-Rinehart 2-algebras to characterize the crossed modules fo…
The notions of vertex Lie algebra and vertex Poisson algebra are presented and connections among vertex Lie algebras, vertex Poisson algebras and vertex algebras are discussed.
Lie conformal algebras $\mathcal{W}(a,b)$ are the semi-direct sums of Virasoro Lie conformal algebra and its nontrivial conformal modules of rank one. In this paper, we first give a complete classification of all finite nontrivial irreducible conformal modules of $\mathcal{W}(a,b)$. It is shown that all such modules are of rank one. Moreover, with a similar method, all finite nontrivial irreducible conformal modules of Schrödinger-Virasoro type Lie conformal algebras $TSV(a,b)$ and $TSV(c)$ are characterized.
We study (quasi-)twilled pre-Lie algebras and the associated $L_\infty$-algebras and differential graded Lie algebras. Then we show that certain twisting transformations on (quasi-)twilled pre-Lie algbras can be characterized by the solutions of Maurer-Cartan equations of the associated differential graded Lie algebras ($L_\infty$-algebras). Furthermore, we show that $\mathcal{O}$-operators and twisted $\mathcal{O}$-operators are solutions of the Maurer-Cartan equations. As applications, we study (quasi-)pre-Lie bialgebras using the associated differential graded Lie algebras ($L_\infty$-algeb…
We construct an abelian quotient of the symplectic derivation Lie algebra $\mathfrak{h}_{g,1}$ of the free Lie algebra generated by the fundamental representation of $\mathrm{Sp}(2g,\mathbb{Q})$. More specifically, we show that the weight $12$ part of the abelianization of $\mathfrak{h}_{g,1}$ is $1$-dimensional for $g \ge 8$. The computation is done with the aid of computers.
We show that there is an equivalence of $\infty$-categories between Lie algebroids and certain kinds of curved Lie algebras. For this we develop a method to study the $\infty$-category of curved Lie algebras using the homotopy theory of algebras over a complete operad.
3-Lie algebras are constructed by Lie algebras, derivations and linear functions, associative commutative algebras, whose involutions and derivations. Then the 3-Lie algebras are obtained from group algebras $F[G]$. An infinite dimensional simple 3-Lie algebra $(A, [,,]_{ω, δ_0})$ and a non-simple 3-Lie algebra $(A, [,,]_{ω_1, δ})$ are constructed by Laurent polynomials $A=F[t, t^{-1}]$ and its involutions $ω$ and $ω_1$ and derivations $δ$ and $δ_0$. At last of the paper, we summarize the methods of constructing $n$-Lie algebras for $n\geq 3$ and provide a problem.
In this paper, first we introduce the notion of quadratic Rota-Baxter Lie algebras of arbitrary weight, and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between factorizable Lie bialgebras and quadratic Rota-Baxter Lie algebras of nonzero weight. Then we introduce the notions of matched pairs, bialgebras and Manin triples of Rota-Baxter Lie algebras of arbitrary weight, and show that Rota-Baxter Lie bialgebras, Manin triples of Rota-Baxter Lie algebras and certain matched pairs of Rota-Baxter Lie algebras are equivalent. The coadjoint representations and quadratic Rota-Baxter Lie algebras pl…
