From the four normed division algebras--the real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and octonions, of dimension k=1, 2, 4 and 8, respectively--a systematic procedure gives a 3-cocycle on the Poincare superalgebra in dimensions k+2=3, 4,…
In extending results from Lie to Leibniz algebras, it is helpful to have techniques which translate results from the former to the latter without having to repeat the (perhaps modified) arguments. Such a technique is developed in this work,…
A Lie algebra is said to be metric if it admits a symmetric invariant and nondegenerate bilinear form. The harmonic oscillator algebra, which arises in the quantum mechanical description of a harmonic oscillator, is the smallest solvable…
The concept of weak Lie motion (weak Lie symmetry) is introduced through ${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}g_{ab}=0,$ (${\cal{L}}_{\xi}{\cal{L}}_{\xi}f=0$). Applications are given which exhibit a reduction of the usual symmetry, e.g., in the…
Linear Geometry studies geometric properties which can be expressed via the notion of a line. All information about lines is encoded in a ternary relation called a line relation. A set endowed with a line relation is called a liner. So,…
Theoretical background of continuous contractions of finite-dimensional Lie algebras is rigorously formulated and developed. In particular, known necessary criteria of contractions are collected and new criteria are proposed. A number of…
F-Lie algebras are natural generalisations of Lie algebras (F=1) and Lie superalgebras (F=2). We give finite dimensional examples of F-Lie algebras obtained by an inductive process from Lie algebras and Lie superalgebras. Matrix…
Hilbert--Lie groups are Lie groups whose Lie algebra is a real Hilbert space whose scalar product is invariant under the adjoint action. These infinite-dimensional Lie groups are the closest relatives to compact Lie groups. Here we study…
In this work we consider all metric Lie algebras, having a nondegenerate symmetric invariant bilinear form, over \C and \R up to dimension 5 and all metric Lie algebras over \C in dimension 6. We introduce cyclic and reduced cyclic…
We initiate a study of projections and modules over a noncommutative cylinder, a simple example of a noncompact noncommutative manifold. Since its algebraic structure turns out to have many similarities with the noncommutative torus, one…
These notes loosely follow an introductory course on graph complexes, held at Humboldt-Universit\"at zu Berlin in summer 23. Instead of simply typing up my lecture notes I decided to give here an overview over (parts of) the topic (lecture…
The cycle-preserving symmetries for the nine two-dimensional real spaces of constant curvature are collectively obtained within a Cayley-Klein framework. This approach affords a unified and global study of the conformal structure of the…
The $n$-Lie bialgebras are studied. In Section 2, the $n$-Lie coalgebra with rank $r$ is defined, and the structure of it is discussed. In Section 3, the $n$-Lie bialgebra is introduced. A triple $(L, \mu, \Delta)$ is an $n$-Lie bialgebra…
Motivated by the classical correspondence between short exact sequences and splitting properties in module theory, this paper examines the projective and injective analogues within the category of Lie algebras. We first show that no Lie…
It is shown that any Lie affgebra, that is an algebraic system consisting of an affine space together with a bi-affine bracket satisfying affine versions of the antisymmetry and Jacobi identity, is isomorphic to a Lie algebra together with…
We consider some special type extensions of an arbitrary Lie algebra, which we call universal extensions. We show that these extensions are in one-to-one correspondence with finite dimensional associative commutative algebras. We also…
Following our approach to metric Lie algebras developed in math.DG/0312243 we propose a way of understanding pseudo-Riemannian symmetric spaces which are not semi-simple. We introduce cohomology sets (called quadratic cohomology) associated…
The set of points of a one-dimensional cut-and-project quasicrystal or model set, while not additive, is shown to be multiplicative for appropriate choices of acceptance windows. This leads to the definition of an associative additive…
Lie algebraic techniques are powerful and widely-used tools for studying dynamics and metrology in quantum optics. When the Hamiltonian generates a Lie algebra with finite dimension, the unitary evolution can be expressed as a finite…
Classical affine Lie algebras appear e.g. as symmetries of infinite dimensional integrable systems and are related to certain differential equations. They are central extensions of current algebras associated to finite-dimensional Lie…
