The 14 Killing vectors of the target space for five-dimensional minimal supergravity reduced to three dimensions are explicitly constructed in terms of the original field variables. These vectors generate the Lie algebra of $G_2$. We also…
Structures of Lie algebras, Lie coalgebras, Lie bialgebras and Lie quasibialgebras are presented as solutions of Maurer-Cartan equations on corresponding governing differential graded Lie algebras using the big bracket construction of…
We construct a graded Lie algebra $\mathcal{E}$ in which the Maurer-Cartan equation is equivalent to the vacuum Einstein equations. The gauge groupoid is the groupoid of rank 4 real vector bundles with a conformal inner product, over a…
A manifold is multisymplectic, or more specifically n-plectic, if it is equipped with a closed nondegenerate differential form of degree n+1. In our previous work with Baez and Hoffnung, we described how the `higher analogs' of the…
Hom-Lie algebras defined on central extensions of a given quadratic Lie algebra that in turn admit an invariant metric, are studied. It is shown how some of these algebras are naturally equipped with other symmetric, bilinear forms that…
This is a short presentation of some classical results on finite dimensional complex Lie algebras (classification of nilpotent Lie algebras, deformations and perturbations, contractions and rigidity). We present some applications to…
We obtain a recurrent and monotone method for constructing and classifying nilpotent Lie algebras by means of successive central extensions. It consists in calculating the second cohomology of an extendable nilpotent Lie algebra with the…
We construct a supersymmetric extension of three-dimensional Newton-Cartan gravity by gauging a super-Bargmann algebra. In order to obtain a non-trivial supersymmetric extension of the Bargmann algebra one needs at least two supersymmetries…
A compatible $L_\infty$-algebra is a graded vector space together with two compatible $L_\infty$-algebra structures on it. Given a graded vector space, we construct a graded Lie algebra whose Maurer-Cartan elements are precisely compatible…
This paper addresses several structural aspects of the insertion-elimination algebra, a Lie algebra that can be realized in terms of tree-inserting and tree-eliminating operations on the set of rooted trees. In particular, we determine the…
The new 4D geometry whose Killing vectors span the Poincar\'e algebra is presented and its structure is analyzed. The new geometry can be regarded as the Poincar\'e-invariant solution of the degenerate extension of the vacuum Einstein field…
Using the skew-symmetry of the differential operators and multiplication operators in the canonical representations of finite-dimensional classical Lie algebras, we obtain some noncanonical polynomial representations of the classical Lie…
The algebras for all possible Lorentzian and Euclidean kinematics with $\frak{so}(3)$ isotropy except static ones are re-classified. The geometries for algebras are presented by contraction approach. The relations among the geometries are…
Expansions of Lie algebras are the opposite process of contractions. Starting from a Lie algebra, the expansion process goes to another one, non-isomorphic and less abelian. We propose an expansion method based in the Casimir invariants of…
We classify up to automorphisms all left-invariant non-Einstein solutions to the Einstein--Maxwell equations on 4-dimensional Lie algebras.
We associate to any Riemannian symmetric space (of finite or infinite dimension) a L$^*$-algebra, under the assumption that the curvature operator has a fixed sign. L$^*$-algebras are Lie algebras with a pleasant Hilbert space structure.…
We modify a Lie algebra expansion method recently introduced for the (2+1)-dimensional kinematical algebras so as to work for higher dimensions. This new improved and geometrical procedure is applied to expanding the (3+1)-dimensional…
The space M_n of all isomorphism classes of n-dimensional Lie algebras over a field k has a natural non-Hausdorff topology, induced from the Segal topology by the action of GL(n). One way of studying this complicated space is by topological…
We show that formal isomorphism of intransitive linear Lie equations along transversal to the orbits can be extended to neighborhoods of these transversal. In analytic cases, the word formal is dropped from theorems. Also, we associate an…
A deformation of the canonical algebra for kinematical observables of the quantum field theory in Minkowski space-time has been considered under the condition of Lorentz invariance. A relativistic invariant algebra obtained depends on…
