We propose a definition of differential operators of an associative algebra $A$ in the spirit of Hochschild cohomology. Specifically we define $D(A)$ as the zero cohomology of a certain bicomplex formed by Hom-spaces…
Each flag manifold carries a unique algebra of chiral differential operators. Continuing along the lines of arXiv:0903.1281 we compute the vertex algebra structure on the cohomology of this algebra. The answer is: the tensor product of the…
We translate the construction of the chiral operad by Beilinson and Drinfeld to the purely algebraic language of vertex algebras. Consequently, the general construction of a cohomology complex associated to a linear operad produces a vertex…
The existing constructions of derived Lie and sh-Lie brackets involve multilinear maps that are used to define higher order differential operators. In this paper, we prove the equivalence of three different definitions of higher order…
Infinitesimal deformations are governed by partition Lie algebras. In characteristic $0$, these higher categorical structures are modelled by differential graded Lie algebras, but in characteristic $p$, they are more subtle. We give…
We find an interpretation of the complex of variational calculus in terms of the Lie conformal algebra cohomology theory. This leads to a better understanding of both theories. In particular, we give an explicit construction of the Lie…
The universal enveloping algebra U(g) of a Lie algebra g acts on its representation ring R through D(R), the ring of differential operators on R. A quantised universal enveloping algebra (or "quantum group") is a deformation of a universal…
The aim of this paper is to compare the structure and the cohomology spaces of Lie algebras and induced $3$-Lie algebras.
We construct the Lie algebra of an n-Lie algebra and we also define the notion of cohomology of an n-Lie algebra.
Fix a manifold M, and let V be an infinite dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields on M. Assume that V contains a finite dimensional semisimple maximal subalgebra A, the projective or conformal subalgebra. A projective or conformal…
This survey paper is an exposition of old and recent results of Kostant and al. on the relationships between the exterior algebra of a simple Lie algebra and the action of the Casimir operator on it. Our exposition relies on u-cohomology…
We define two $(n+1)$ graded Lie brackets on spaces of multilinear mappings. The first one is able to recognize $n$-graded associative algebras and their modules and gives immediately the correct differential for Hochschild cohomology. The…
We show that there is a sequence of operations on the positively graded part of a differential graded algebra making it into an L-infinity algebra. The formulas for the higher brackets involve Bernoulli numbers. The construction generalizes…
The Leibniz bracket of an operator on a (graded) algebra is defined and some of its properties are studied. A basic theorem relating the Leibniz bracket of the commutator of two operators to the Leibniz bracket of them, is obtained. Under…
In this paper, first we show that $(\g,[\cdot,\cdot],\alpha)$ is a hom-Lie algebra if and only if $(\Lambda \g^*,\alpha^*,d)$ is an $(\alpha^*,\alpha^*)$-differential graded commutative algebra. Then, we revisit representations of hom-Lie…
Barr--Beck cohomology, put into the framework of model categories by Quillen, provides a cohomology theory for any algebraic structure, for example Andr\'e--Quillen cohomology of commutative rings. Quillen cohomology has been studied…
In this dissertation, we investigate the cohomology theory of restricted Lie algebras. The representation theory of restricted Lie algebras is reviewed including a description of the restricted universal enveloping algebra. In the case of…
By using the Ringel-Hall algebra approach, we investigate the structure of the Lie algebra $L(\Lambda)$ generated by indecomposable constructible sets in the varieties of modules for any finite dimensional $\mathbb{C}$-algebra $\Lambda.$ We…
As an algebraic study of differential equations, differential algebras have been studied for a century and and become an important area of mathematics. In recent years the area has been expended to the noncommutative associative and Lie…
Each choice of a K\"ahler class on a compact complex manifold defines an action of the Lie algebra $\slt$ on its total complex cohomology. If a nonempty set of such K\"ahler classes is given, then we prove that the corresponding…
