The divergence map, an important ingredient in the algebraic description of the Turaev cobracket on a connected oriented compact surface with boundary, is reformulated in the context of non-commutative geometry using a flat connection on…

We construct the explicit formula for the (2n+1)-cocycle of the Lie algebra of (pseudo)differential operators on a n-dimensional space. We prove that this formula in fact defines a cocycle for n=1 and n=2.

On Lie algebras, we study commutative 2-cocycles, i.e., symmetric bilinear forms satisfying the usual cocycle equation. We note their relationship with antiderivations and compute them for some classes of Lie algebras, including…

We consider the lower central filtration of the free associative algebra $A_n$ with $n$ generators as a Lie algebra. We consider the associated graded Lie algebra. It is shown that this Lie algebra has a huge center which belongs to the…

Let $G = SO_0(2,m),$ the connected component of the Lie group $SO(2,m);\ K = SO(2) \times SO(m),$ a maximal compact subgroup of $G;$ and $\theta$ be the associated Cartan involution of $G.$ Let $X = G/K,\ \frak{g}_0$ be the Lie algebra of…

For $\mathcal{O}$ a reduced operad, a generalized divergence from the derivations of a free $\mathcal{O}$-algebra to a suitable trace space is constructed. In the case of the Lie operad, this corresponds to Satoh's trace map and, for the…

Starting from the four normed division algebras - the real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and octonions - a systematic procedure gives a 3-cocycle on the Poincare Lie superalgebra in dimensions 3, 4, 6 and 10. A related procedure…

This short note studies $C^{\infty}$-smooth cocycles in $\mathbb{T}\times SO(3)$ that have $0$ degree and are non-homotopic to constants. The study picks up from where the author's PhD thesis left the subject, and shows that, under a…
