On Description of Leibniz Algebras Corresponding to sl 2

In this paper we describe finite-dimensional complex Leibniz algebras whose quotient algebra with respect to the ideal I generated by squares is isomorphic to the simple Lie algebra sl ₂. It is shown that the number of isomorphism classes such of Leibniz algebras coincides with the number of partitions of dim I.     

Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree

A Poisson algebra is a Lie algebra endowed with a commutative associative product in such a way that the Lie and associative products are compatible via a Leibniz rule. If we part from a Lie color algebra, instead of a Lie algebra, a graded-commutative associative product and a graded-version Leibniz rule we get a so-called Poisson color algebra (of degree zero). This concept can be extended to any degree, so as to obtain the class of Poisson color algebras of arbitrary degree. This class turns out to be a wide class of algebras containing the ones of Lie color algebras (and so Lie superalgebras and Lie algebras), Poisson algebras, graded Poisson algebras, z-Poisson algebras, Gerstenhaber algebras, and Schouten algebras among other classes of algebras. The present paper is devoted to the study of structure of Poisson color algebras of degree g₀, where g₀ is some element of the grading group G such that g₀ = 0 or 4g₀≠0, and with restrictions neither on the dimension nor the base field, by stating a second Wedderburn-type theorem for this class of algebras.     

The Nilpotency Properties of the Leibniz Algebra Mn(C)D

We study the nilpotency properties of the Leibniz algebras constructed by means of D-mappings on the algebra of complex square matrices M _n (C). In particular, we obtain a criterion for nilpotency of these algebras in terms of the properties of a D-mapping. We prove also that the Leibniz algebras under consideration cannot be simple.     

The Structure of Weak Hopf Algebras Corresponding to U q (sl 2)

The structure of weak Hopf algebras corresponding to U _q (sl ₂) are classified by their algebra structure and coalgebra structure. The algebra structure of weak Hopf algebras corresponding to U _q (sl ₂) can be written as the direct sum of U _q (sl ₂) and an algebra of polynomials. The coalgebra structure of weak Hopf algebras corresponding to U _q (sl ₂) are classified by their Ext quiver. There are four types of such structures.     

Description of some classes of Leibniz algebras

In this paper we describe the isomorphism classes of finite-dimensional complex Leibniz algebras whose quotient algebra with respect to the ideal generated by squares is isomorphic to the direct sum of three-dimensional simple Lie algebra sl₂ and a three-dimensional solvable ideal. We choose a basis of the isomorphism classes’ representatives and give explicit multiplication tables.     

Conservative algebras of 2-dimensional algebras,II

In 1990 Kantor defined the conservative algebra W(n) of all algebras (i.e. bilinear maps) on the n-dimensional vector space. If n>1, then the algebra W(n) does not belong to any well-known class of algebras (such as associative, Lie, Jordan, or Leibniz algebras). We describe automorphisms, one-sided ideals, and idempotents of W(2). Also similar problems are solved for the algebra W₂ of all commutative algebras on the 2-dimensional vector space and for the algebra S₂ of all commutative algebras with trace zero multiplication on the 2-dimensional vector space.     

Leibniz algebras with pseudo-Riemannian bilinear forms

M. Bordemann has studied non-associative algebras with nondegenerate associative bilinear forms. In this paper, we focus on pseudo-Riemannian bilinear forms and study pseudo-Riemannian Leibniz algebras, i.e., Leibniz algebras with pseudo-Riemannian non-degenerate symmetric bilinear forms. We give the notion and some properties of T*-extensions of Leibniz algebras. In addition, we introduce the definition of equivalence and isometrical equivalence for two T*-extensions of a Leibniz algebra, and give a sufficient and necessary condition for the equivalence and isometrical equivalence.     

On Universal Central Extensions of Leibniz Algebras

We construct the endofunctor 𝔲𝔠𝔢 between the category of Leibniz algebras which assigns to a perfect Leibniz algebra its universal central extension, and we obtain the isomorphism 𝔲𝔠𝔢_Lie(𝔮_Lie) ? (𝔲𝔠𝔢_Leib(𝔮))_Lie, where 𝔮 is a perfect Leibniz algebra satisfying the condition [x, [x, y]] + [[x, y], x] = 0, for all x, y ∈ 𝔮. Moreover, we obtain several results concerning the lifting of automorphisms and derivations in a covering. We also study the relationship between the universal central extension of a semidirect product of perfect Leibniz algebras and the semidirect product of the universal central extension of both of them.     

Some notes on the second homology of Leibniz algebras

Some properties of the second homology and cover of Leibniz algebras are established. By constructing a stem cover, the second Leibniz homology and cover of abelian, Heisenberg Lie algebras and cyclic Leibniz algebras are described. Also, for the dimension of a non-cyclic nilpotent Leibniz algebra L, we obtain dim(HL₂(L))≥2.     

Leibniz Central Extensions on Some Infinite-Dimensional Lie Algebras

Abstract

In this paper, all one-dimensional Leibniz central extensions on the algebras of differential operators over C[t, t ^?1] and C((t)), as well as on the quantum 2-torus, the Virasoro-like algebra and its q-analog are studied. We determine all nontrivial Leibniz 2-cocycles on these infinite dimensional Lie algebras.     

The embedding ofU q(sl (2)) and sine algebras in generalized Clifford algebras

In this note, we establish the connection between certain quantum algebras and generalized Clifford algebras (GCA). Precisely, we embed the quantum tori Lie algebra andU _q(sl (2)) in GCA.     

Solvable extensions of the naturally graded quasi-filiform Leibniz algebra of second type ℒ2

For a sequence of the naturally graded quasi-filiform Leibniz algebra of second type ?² introduced by Camacho, Gómez, González and Omirov, all possible right and left solvable indecomposable extensions over the field ? are constructed so that the algebra serves as the nilradical of the corresponding solvable Leibniz algebras we find in the paper.     

Leibniz algebras constructed by Witt algebras

ABSTRACT

We describe infinite-dimensional Leibniz algebras whose associated Lie algebra is the Witt algebra and we prove the triviality of low-dimensional Leibniz cohomology groups of the Witt algebra with the coefficients in itself.     

A Characterization of Nilpotent Leibniz Algebras

W. A. Moens proved that a Lie algebra is nilpotent if and only if it admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation. In this paper, using the definition of a Leibniz-derivation from Moens (2010), we show that a similar result for non-Lie Leibniz algebras is not true. Namely, we give an example of non-nilpotent Leibniz algebra that admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation. In order to extend the results of the paper by Moens (2010) for Leibniz algebras, we introduce a definition of a Leibniz-derivation of Leibniz algebras that agrees with Leibniz-derivation of the Lie algebra case. Further, we prove that a Leibniz algebra is nilpotent if and only if it admits an invertible Leibniz-derivation of Definition 3.4. Moreover, the result that a solvable radical of a Lie algebra is invariant with respect to a Leibniz-derivation was extended to the case of Leibniz algebras.     

On Exact Courant Algebras

In this note, we will show that exact Courant algebras over a Lie algebra 𝔤 can be characterized via Leibniz 2-cocycles, and the automorphism group of a given exact Courant algebra is in a one-to-one correspondence with first Leibniz cohomology space of 𝔤.     

Finite vs affine W-algebras

In Section 1 we review various equivalent definitions of a vertex algebra V. The main novelty here is the definition in terms of an indefinite integral of the λ-bracket. In Section 2 we construct, in the most general framework, the Zhu algebra Zhu_ΓV, an associative algebra which “controls” Γ-twisted representations of the vertex algebra V with a given Hamiltonian operator H. An important special case of this construction is the H-twisted Zhu algebra Zhu_H V. In Section 3 we review the theory of non-linear Lie conformal algebras (respectively non-linear Lie algebras). Their universal enveloping vertex algebras (resp. universal enveloping algebras) form an important class of freely generated vertex algebras (resp. PBW generated associative algebras). We also introduce the H-twisted Zhu non-linear Lie algebra Zhu_H R of a non-linear Lie conformal algebra R and we show that its universal enveloping algebra is isomorphic to the H-twisted Zhu algebra of the universal enveloping vertex algebra of R. After a discussion of the necessary cohomological material in Section 4, we review in Section 5 the construction and basic properties of affine and finite W-algebras, obtained by the method of quantum Hamiltonian reduction. Those are some of the most intensively studied examples of freely generated vertex algebras and PBW generated associative algebras. Applying the machinery developed in Sections 3 and 4, we then show that the H-twisted Zhu algebra of an affine W-algebra is isomorphic to the finite W-algebra, attached to the same data. In Section 6 we define the Zhu algebra of a Poisson vertex algebra, and we discuss quasiclassical limits. In the Appendix, the equivalence of three definitions of a finite W-algebra is established. “I am an old man, and I know that a definition cannot be so complicated.” I.M.

Classification of solvable Leibniz algebras with null-filiform nilradical

In this article we classify solvable Leibniz algebras whose nilradical is a null-filiform algebra. We extend the obtained classification to the case when the solvable Leibniz algebra is decomposed as a direct sum of its nilradical, which is a direct sum of null-filiform ideals and a one-dimensional complementary subspace. Moreover, in this case we establish that these ideals are ideals of the algebra as well.     

Generalization of quasi-Koszul algebras

In this paper, we generalize two kinds of graded algebras, δ-Koszul algebras and K p algebras, to the non-graded cases. The trivial modules of δ-Koszul algebras have pure resolutions, while those of K p algebras admit non-pure resolutions. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a notherian semiperfect algebra either to be a quasi-δ-Koszul algebra or to be a quasi-K p algebra.     

Cocycles on a finite dimensional quotient of uq (sl(2))

We prove that certain algebra quotients of Hopf algebras are twisted Hopf algebras. On the other handu_q (sl(2)) is a crossed product of a central subalgebra with a quotient [Ubar], when q is a root of 1. Using the cocycle involved in this crossed product we construct non-trivial complex cocycles τ and we find the isomorphism classes of the corresponding twisted Hopf algebras _τ [Ubar]. These provide complex projective representations of [Ubar] which are not ordinary representations.     

Ideals of identities of representations of nilpotent lie algebras

Let L be a Lie algebra, nilpotent of class 2, over an infinite field K, and suppose that the centre C of L is one dimensional; such Lie algebras are called Heisenberg algebras. Let ρ:L→hom _KV be a finite dimensional representation of the Heisenberg algebra L such that ρ(C) contains non-singular linear transformations of V, and denote l(ρ) the ideal of identities for the representation ρ. We prove that the ideals of identities of representations containing I(ρ) and generated by multilinear polynomials satisfy the ACC. Let sl ₂(L) be the Lie algebra of the traceless 2×2 matrices over K, and suppose the characteristic of K equals 2. As a corollary we obtain that the ideals of identities of representations of Lie algebras containing that of the regular representation of sl ₂(K) and generated by multilinear polynomials, are finitely based. In addition we show that one cannot simply dispense with the condition of multilinearity. Namely, we show that the ACC is violated for the ideals of representations of Lie algebras (over an infinite field of characteristic 2) that contain the identities of the regular representation of sl ₂(K).
