Higher derivations on an associative algebra generalizes higher order derivatives. We call a tuple consisting of an algebra and a higher derivation on it by an AssHDer pair. We define a cohomology for AssHDer pairs with coefficients in a representation. Next, we study central extensions, abelian extensions of AssHDer pairs and relate them to the second cohomology group with appropriate coefficients. Deformations of AssHDer pairs are also considered which are governed by the cohomology with self coefficient.
In this paper, we introduce the relevant concepts of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras and construct three classes of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras. As a generalization of the notion of derivations for $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie algebras, we discuss the derivations of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras. In addition, the theory of one parameter formal deformation of $n$-ary multiplicative Hom-Nambu-Lie superalgebras is developed by choosing a suitable cohomology.
Let $T$ be a $δ$-Jordan Lie supertriple system. We first introduce the notions of generalized derivations and representations of $T$ and present some properties. Also, we study the low dimension cohomology and the coboundary operator of $T$, and then we investigate the deformations and Nijenhuis operators of $T$ by choosing some suitable cohomology.
The purpose of this paper is to extend the cohomology and conformal derivation theories of the classical Lie conformal algebras to Lie conformal superalgebras. Firstly, we construct the semidirect product of a Lie conformal superalgebra and its conformal module, and study derivations of this semidirect product. Secondly, we develop cohomology theory of Lie conformal superalgebras and discuss some applications to the study of deformations of Lie conformal superalgebras. Finally, we introduce generalized derivations of Lie conformal superalgebras and study their properties.
The purpose of this paper is to extend the cohomology and conformal derivation theories of the classical Lie conformal algebras to Hom-Lie conformal algebras. In this paper, we develop cohomology theory of Hom-Lie conformal algebras and discuss some applications to the study of deformations of regular Hom-Lie conformal algebras. Also, we introduce $α^k$-derivations of multiplicative Hom-Lie conformal algebras and study their properties.
We obtain deformations of a crossed product of a polynomial algebra with a group, under some conditions, from universal deformation formulas. We show that the resulting deformations are nontrivial by a comparison with Hochschild cohomology. The universal deformation formulas arise from actions of Hopf algebras generated by automorphisms and skew derivations, and are universal in the sense that they apply to deform all algebras with such Hopf algebra actions.
In this paper, we mainly study Jordan derivations of dual extension algebras and those of generalized one-point extension algebras. It is shown that every Jordan derivation of dual extension algebras is a derivation. As applications, we obtain that every Jordan generalized derivation and every generalized Jordan derivation on dual extension algebras are both generalized derivations. For generalized one-point extension algebras, it is proved that under certain conditions, each Jordan derivation of them is the sum of a derivation and an anti-derivation.
In this article we develop an approach to deformations of the Witt and Virasoro algebras based on $σ$-derivations. We show that $σ$-twisted Jacobi type identity holds for generators of such deformations. For the $σ$-twisted generalization of Lie algebras modeled by this construction, we develop a theory of central extensions. We show that our approach can be used to construct new deformations of Lie algebras and their central extensions, which in particular include naturally the $q$-deformations of the Witt and Virasoro algebras associated to $q$-difference operators, providing also correspond…
In this paper, first we give the cohomologies of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra and introduce the notion of a derivation of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra. We show that a derivation of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra is a $1$-cocycle with the coefficient in the adjoint representation. We also give the formula of the dual representation of a representation of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra. Then, we study $(n-1)$-order deformation of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra. We introduce the notion of a Hom-Nijenhuis operator, which could generate a trivial $(n-1)$-order deformation of an $n$-Hom-Lie algebra. Finally, we introduce the notion of…
The paper [9] by Bocklandt, Schedler and Wemyss considers path algebras with relations given by the higher derivations of a superpotential, giving a condition for such an algebra to be Calabi-Yau. In this paper we extend these results, giving a condition for a PBW deformation of a Calabi-Yau, Koszul path algebra with relations given by a superpotential to have relations given by a superpotential, and proving these are Calabi-Yau in certain cases. We apply our methods to symplectic reflection algebras, where we show that every symplectic reflection algebra is Morita equivalent to a path algebra…
The aim of this paper is to deal with BiHom-alternative algebras which are a generalization of alternative and Hom-alternative algebras, their structure is defined with two commuting multiplicative linear maps. We study cohomology and one-parameter formal deformation theory of left BiHom-alternative algebras. Moreover, we study central and $T_θ$-extensions of BiHom-alternative algebras and their relationship with cohomology. Finally, we investigate generalized derivations and give some relevant results.
In this paper, we consider Leibniz algebras with derivations. A pair consisting of a Leibniz algebra and a distinguished derivation is called a LeibDer pair. We define a cohomology theory for LeibDer pair with coefficients in a representation. We study central extensions and abelian extensions of a LeibDer pair. In the next, we generalize the formal deformation theory to LeibDer pairs in which we deform both the Leibniz bracket and the distinguished derivation. It is governed by the cohomology of LeibDer pair with coefficients in itself. Finally, we consider homotopy derivations on sh Leibniz …
In this paper we apply a method devised in \cite{HartLarsSilv1D,LarsSilv1D} to the three-dimensional simple Lie algebra $\sll$. One of the main points of this deformation method is that the deformed algebra comes endowed with a canonical twisted Jacobi identity. We show in the present paper that when our deformation scheme is applied to $\sll$ we can, by choosing parameters suitably, deform $\sll$ into the Heisenberg Lie algebra and some other three-dimensional Lie algebras in addition to more exotic types of algebras, this being in stark contrast to the classical deformation schemes where $\s…
For a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ related to a quantum torus, we compute its automorphisms, derivations and universal central extension. This Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$ is isomorphic to a subalgebra of the Lie algebra of derivations over the quantum torus, and moreover contains a subalgebra isomorphic to the centerless higher rank Virasoro algebra.
Let $K$ be a field and $Γ$ a finite quiver without oriented cycles. Let $Λ$ be the path algebra $K(Γ, ρ)$ and let $\mathscr{D}(Λ)$ be the dual extension of $Λ$. In this paper, we prove that each Lie derivation of $\mathscr{D}(Λ)$ is of the standard form.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a derivation of a Hom-Lie algebra and construct the corresponding strict Hom-Lie 2-algebra, which is called the derivation Hom-Lie 2-algebra. As applications, we study non-abelian extensions of Hom-Lie algebras. We show that iso- morphism classes of diagonal non-abelian extensions of a Hom-Lie algebra g by a Hom-Lie algebra h are in one-to-one correspondence with homotopy classes of morphisms from g to the derivation Hom-Lie 2-algebra DER(h).
In this paper we investigate in details derivations on trivial extension algebras. We obtain generalizations of both known results on derivations on triangular matrix algebras and a known result on first cohomology group of trivial extension algebras. As a consequence we get the characterization of trivial extension algebras on which every derivation is inner. We show that, under some conditions, a trivial extension algebra on which every derivation is inner has necessarily a triangular matrix representation. The paper starts with detailed study (with examples) of the relation between the triv…
A cohomology theory, associated to a $n$-Lie algebra and a representation space of it, is introduced. It is observed that this cohomology theory is qualified to encode the generalized derivation extensions, and that it coincides, for $n=3$, with the known cohomology of $n$-Lie algebras. The abelian extensions and infinitesimal deformations of $n$-Lie algebras, on the other hand, are shown to be characterized by the usual cohomology of $n$-Lie algebras. Furthermore, the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence of the Lie algebra cohomology is upgraded to the level of $n$-Lie algebras, and is applied …
In this paper we provide some conditions under which a Lie derivation on a trivial extension algebra is proper, that is, it can be decomposed into the sum of a derivation and a center valued map. We extend some known results on the properness of Lie derivations of triangular algebras. Some illuminating examples are also included.
In this paper, we study the derivations, central extensions and the automorphisms of the infinite-dimensional Lie algebra W which appeared in [8] and Dong-Zhang's recent work [22] on the classification of some simple vertex operator algebras.
We study an extension algebra $A$ from two given $3$-Lie algebras $M$ and $H$, and discuss the extensibility of a pair of derivations, one from the derivation algebra of $M$ and the other from that of $H$, to a derivation of $A$. In particular, we give conditions for such an extension to be a $3$-Lie algebra, and provide necessary and sufficient conditions of the pair of derivations to be extendable.

In this paper we expand on previous results, studying the extent to which one can detect fusion in certain finite groups $Γ$, from information about the universal deformation rings of absolutely irreducible $\mathbb{F}_pΓ$-modules. We consider groups which are extensions of finite irreducible subgroups of $Gl_2({\mathbb{C}})$ by elementary abelian $p$-groups of rank $2$.
Lie algebras formed via semi-direct sums of the Witt algebra $\text{Der}(\mathbb{C}[t,t^{-1}])$ and its modules have become increasingly prominent in both physics and mathematics in recent years. In this paper, we complete the study of (Leibniz) central extensions, derivations and automorphisms of the Lie algebras formed from the semi-direct sum of the Witt algebra and its indecomposable intermediate series modules (that is, graded modules with one-dimensional graded components). Our techniques exploit the internal grading of the Witt algebra, which can be applied to a wider class of graded Li…
We extend some recent results on the differentiability of torsion theories. In particular, we generalize the concept of $(α, β)$-derivation to $(α, β)$-higher derivation and demonstrate that a filter of a hereditary torsion theory that is invariant for $α$ and $β$ is $(α, β)$-higher derivation invariant. As a consequence, any higher derivation can be extended from a module to its module of quotients. Then, we show that any higher derivation extended to a module of quotients extends also to a module of quotients with respect to a larger torsion theory in such a way that these extensions agree. …
In this paper we define and discuss the representations of $n$-BiHom-Lie algebra. We also introduce $T_θ$-extensions and $T_θ^{\ast}$-extensions of $n$-BiHom-Lie algebras and prove the necessary and sufficient conditions for a $2m$-dimensional quadratic $n$-Bihom-Lie algebra to be isomorphic to a $T_θ^{\ast}$-extension. Moreover, we develop the one-parameter formal deformations of $n$-BiHom-Lie algebras, and we proved that the first and second cohomology groups are suitable to the deformation theory involving infinitesimals, equivalent deformations, and rigidity
In this paper we study universal central extensions and non-abelian tensor product of hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras. We discuss about universal $α$- central extensions, and, lifting of automorphisms and $α$-derivations to central extensions for hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras. This is in turn provide such lifting of automorphisms and $α^k$-derivations to the central extensions for hom-Lie algebras.
Let $(L, α)$ be a Hom-Lie-Yamaguti superalgebra. We first introduce the representation and cohomology theory of Hom-Lie-Yamaguti superalgebras. Furthermore, we introduce the notions of generalized derivations and representations of $(L, α)$ and present some properties. Finally, we investigate the deformations of $(L, α)$ by choosing some suitable cohomology.
In this article we consider the Ore extension Algebra for the algebra $\mathcal{A}$ of functions with finite support on a countable set. We derive explicit formulas for twisted derivations on $\mathcal{A}.$ We give a description for the centralizer of $\mathcal{A},$ and the center of the Ore extension algebra when the derivation is zero.
A deformation $U$, of a graded $K$-algebra $A$ is said to be of PBW type if $grU$ is $A$. It has been shown for Koszul and $N$-Koszul algebras that the deformation is PBW if and only if the relations of $U$ satisfy a Jacobi type condition. In particular, for these algebras the determination of the PBW property is a {\it finite} and explicitly determined linear algebra problem. We extend these results to an arbitrary graded $K$-algebra, using the notion of central extensions of algebras and a homological constant attached to $A$ which we call the {\it complexity} of $A$.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a BiHom-Lie conformal algebra and develop its cohomology theory. Also, we discuss some applications to the study of deformations of regular BiHom-Lie conformal algebras. Finally, we introduce derivations of multiplicative BiHom-Lie conformal algebras and study their properties.
A quadratic Lie conformal algebra corresponds to a Hamiltonian pair in \cite{GD}, which plays fundamental roles in completely integrable systems. Moreover, it also corresponds to certain compatible pairs of a Lie algebra and a Novikov algebra which was called Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebra by Xu in \cite{X1}. In this paper, central extensions and conformal derivations of quadratic Lie conformal algebras are studied in terms of Gel'fand-Dorfman bialgebras. It is shown that central extensions and conformal derivations of a quadratic Lie conformal algebra are related with some bilinear forms and some…
Let $Ł_m$ be the scheme of the laws defined by the Jacobi's identities on $\K^m$ with $\K$ a field. A deformation of $\g\inŁ_m$, parametrized by a local $\K$-algebra $\A$, is a local $\K$-algebra morphism from the local ring of $Ł_m$ at $ϕ_m$ to $\A$. The problem to classify all the deformation equivalence classes of a Lie algebra with given base is solved by "versal" deformations. First, we give an algorithm for computing versal deformations. Second, we prove there is a bijection between the deformation equivalence classes of an algebraic Lie algebra $ϕ_m=\mathrm{R}\ltimesϕ_n$ in $Ł_m$ and it…
In this paper, we study 3-Lie algebras with derivations. We call the pair consisting of a 3-Lie algebra and a distinguished derivation by the 3-LieDer pair. We define a cohomology theory for 3-LieDer pair with coefficients in a representation. We study central extensions of a 3-LieDer pair and show that central extensions are classified by the second cohomology of the 3-LieDer pair with coefficients in the trivial representation. We generalize Gerstenhaber's formal deformation theory to 3-LieDer pairs in which we deform both the 3-Lie bracket and the distinguished derivation.
We study almost inner derivations of Lie algebras, which were introduced by Gordon and Wilson in their work on isospectral deformations of compact solvmanifolds. We compute all almost inner derivations for low-dimensional Lie algebras, and introduce the concept of fixed basis vectors for proving that all almost inner derivations are inner for $2$-step nilpotent Lie algebras determined by graphs, free $2$ and $3$-step nilpotent Lie algebras, free metabelian nilpotent Lie algebras on two generators, almost abelian Lie algebras and triangular Lie algebras. On the other hand we also exhibit famili…
We examine PBW deformations of finite group extensions of skew polynomial rings, in particular the quantum Drinfeld orbifold algebras defined by the first author. We give a homological interpretation, in terms of Gerstenhaber brackets, of the necessary and sufficient conditions on parameter functions to define a quantum Drinfeld orbifold algebra, thus clarifying the conditions. In case the acting group is trivial, we determine conditions under which such a PBW deformation is a generalized enveloping algebra of a color Lie algebra; our PBW deformations include these algebras as a special case.
