We study the semidirect product of a Lie algebra with a representation up to homotopy and provide various examples coming from Courant algebroids, string Lie 2-algebras, and omni-Lie algebroids. In the end, we study the semidirect product…
We study the extension of a Lie algebroid by a representation up to homotopy, including semidirect products of a Lie algebroid with such representations. The extension results in a higher Lie algebroid. We give exact Courant algebroids and…
We first recall two equivalent definitions of Lie $2$-algebras, categorification of Lie algebras and $2$-term $L_\infty$-algebras. Then we present four different kinds of Lie $2$-algebras from $2$-plectic manifolds, Courant algebroids,…
A Lie 2-algebra is a linear category equipped with a functorial bilinear operation satisfying skew-symmetry and Jacobi identity up to natural transformations which themselves obey coherence laws of their own. Functors and natural…
Given a representation up to homotopy of a Lie algebroid on a 2-term complex of vector bundles, we define the corresponding holonomy as a strict 2-functor from a Weinstein path 2-groupoid to the gauge 2-groupoid of the underlying 2-term…
The goal of this paper is to extend the standard invariant-theoretic design, well-developed in the reductive case, to the setting of representation of certain non-reductive groups. This concerns the following notions and results: the…
We consider homotopy actions of a Lie algebroid on a graded manifold, defined as suitable $L_{\infty}$-algebra morphisms. On the "semi-direct product" we construct a homological vector field that projects to the Lie algebroid. Our main…
Given a strict Lie 2-algebra, we can integrate it to a strict Lie 2-group by integrating the corresponding Lie algebra crossed module. On the other hand, the integration procedure of Getzler and Henriques will also produce a 2-group. In…
First of all, we recall the well known notion of semidirect product both for classical algebraic structures (like groups and rings) and for more recent ones (digroups, left skew braces, heaps, trusses). Then we analyse the concept of…
Following Sullivan's spacial realization of a differential algebra, we construct a universal integrating Lie 2-groupoid for every Lie algebroid. Then We show that unlike Lie algebras which one-to-one correspond to simply connected Lie…
Every finite dimensional real representation of a compact real semisimple Lie algebra determines a metric 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra and a corresponding simply connected metric 2-step nilpotent Lie group N. We study the differential…
If a graded Lie algebra is the direct sum of two graded sub Lie algebras, its bracket can be written in a form that mimics a "double sided semidirect product". It is called the {\it knit product} of the two subalgebras then. The integrated…
We show that double Lie algebroids, together with a chosen linear splitting, are equivalent to pairs of 2-term representations up to homotopy satisfying compatibility conditions which extend the notion of matched pair of Lie algebroids. We…
We show how to integrate a weak morphism of Lie algebra crossed-modules to a weak morphism of Lie 2-groups. To do so we develop a theory of butterflies for 2-term L_infty algebras. In particular, we obtain a new description of the…
We study representations of hemistrict Lie 2-algebras and give a functorial construction of their cohomology. We prove that both the cohomology of an injective hemistrict Lie 2-algebra $L$ and the cohomology of the semistrict Lie 2-algebra…
From the theory of finite dimensional Lie algebras it is known that every finite dimensional Lie algebra is decomposed into a semidirect sum of semisimple subalgebra and solvable radical. Moreover, due to work of Mal'cev the study of…
We exhibit in this article a contraction of the direct product Lie algebra $g\oplus g$ of a finite-dimensional complex Lie algebra $g$ onto the semi-direct product Lie algebra $g\rtimes g$, where the first factor $g$ is viewed as a trivial…
A study is made of real Lie algebras admitting compatible complex and product structures, including numerous 4-dimensional examples. If g is a Lie algebra with such a structure then its complexification has a hypercomplex structure. It is…
Courant algebroids are structures which include as examples the doubles of Lie bialgebras and the direct sum of tangent and cotangent bundles with the bracket introduced by T. Courant for the study of Dirac structures. Within the category…
Li-Bland's correspondence between linear Courant algebroids and Lie $2$-algebroids is explained and shown to be an equivalence of categories. Decomposed VB-Courant algebroids are shown to be equivalent to split Lie 2-algebroids in the same…
