We show that every Lie algebra is equipped with a natural $(1,1)$-variant tensor field, the "canonical endomorphism field", naturally determined by the Lie structure, and satisfying a certain Nijenhuis bracket condition. This observation…

We introduce statistical, conjugate connection and Hessian structures on anti-commutable pre-Leibniz algebroids. Anti-commutable pre-Leibniz algebroids are special cases of local pre-Leibniz algebroids, which are still general enough to…

We examine the standard Courant bracket and its extensions, defined by twists with different $O(D,D)$ transformations relevant to string theory. We analyze Dirac structures on these Courant algebroids and derive the constraints they impose…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Koszul-Vinberg-Nijenhuis structures on a left-symmetric algebroid as analogues of Poisson-Nijenhuis structures on a Lie algebroid, and show that a Koszul-Vinberg-Nijenhuis structure gives rise to a…

A ternary Nambu-Poisson algebra (which we call a Nambu-Poisson algebra in the paper) is the underlying algebraic structure of Nambu-Poisson manifolds of order $3$ that appeared in the generalized Hamiltonian mechanics. First, we consider…

Two structures $M, N$ in the same language are called probably isomorphic if they (or, in case of metric structures, their completions) are isomorphic after forcing with the Lebesgue measure algebra. We show that, if $M$ and $N$ are…

We give a complete classification, up to isometric isomorphism and scaling, of $4$-dimensional metric Lie algebras $(\mathfrak{g},\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ that admit a non-zero parallel skew-symmetric endomorphism. In particular, we…

A 2-plectic manifold is a manifold equipped with a closed nondegenerate 3-form, just as a symplectic manifold is equipped with a closed nondegenerate 2-form. In 2-plectic geometry we meet higher analogues of many structures familiar from…

We develop a structure theory for transposed Poisson algebras over fields of characteristic different from two. In particular, we prove that every finite-dimensional transposed Poisson algebra over an algebraically closed field decomposes…

In this paper, we develop the theory of Hom-Lie algebroids, Hom-Lie bialgebroids and Hom-Courant algebroids introduced by Cai, Liu and Sheng. Specifically, we introduce the notions of Hom-Poisson, Hom-Nijenhuis and Hom-Poisson-Nijenhuis…

Nijenhuis operators are very useful in the deformation theory of algebras. In this paper, we introduce a new cohomology theory related to deformation of Nijenhuis algebra morphisms, this notion involves simultaneous deformation of two…

We introduce a new type of algebra, the Courant-Dorfman algebra. These are to Courant algebroids what Lie-Rinehart algebras are to Lie algebroids, or Poisson algebras to Poisson manifolds. We work with arbitrary rings and modules, without…

The binary bracket of a Courant algebroid structure on $(E,\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ can be extended to a $n$-ary bracket on $\Gamma(E)$, yielding a multi-Courant algebroid. These $n$-ary brackets form a Poisson algebra and were…

In this paper, we introduce right-invariant (similarly, left-invariant) Poisson-Nijenhuis Structures on Lie groupoids and their infinitesimal counterparts as called $(\Lambda , \mathbf{n})-$structures. We present a mutual correspondence…

Courant algebroids provide a useful mathematical tool (not only) in string theory. It is thus important to define and examine their morphisms. To some extent, this was done before using an analogue of canonical relations known from…

Just like Atiyah Lie algebroids encode the infinitesimal symmetries of principal bundles, exact Courant algebroids are believed to encode the infinitesimal symmetries of $S^1$-gerbes. At the same time, transitive Courant algebroids may be…

The paper contains two lines of results: the first one is a study of symmetries and conservation laws of gl-regular Nijenhuis operators. We prove the splitting Theorem for symmetries and conservation laws of Nijenhuis operators, show that…

Deformations of a Courant Algebroid E and its Dirac subbundle A have been widely considered under the assumption that the pseudo-Euclidean metric is fixed. In this paper, we attack the same problem in a setting that allows the…

In recent years, a close connection between supergravity, string effective actions and generalized geometry has been discovered that typically involves a doubling of geometric structures. We investigate this relation from the point of view…

We introduce the notion of double Courant-Dorfman algebra and prove that it satisfies the so-called Kontsevich-Rosenberg principle, that is, a double Courant-Dorfman algebra induces Roytenberg's Courant-Dorfman algebras on the affine…
