Courant brackets on noncommutative algebras and omni-Lie algebras

Symplectic Geometry 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We define a Courant bracket on an associative algebra using the theory of Hochschild homology, and we introduce the notion of Dirac algebra. We show that the bracket of an omni-Lie algebra is quite a kind of Courant bracket.
