We construct quasi-Hopf algebras quantizing double extensions of the Manin pairs of Drinfeld, associated to a curve with a meromorphic differential, and the Lie algebra sl(2). This construction makes use of an analysis of the vertex…
We study quotients of multi-graded bundles, including double vector bundles. Among other things, we show that any such quotient fits into a tower of affine bundles. Applications of the theory include a construction of normal bundles for…
In this paper, we first discuss the topological properties of projective Stiefel manifolds, we compute their cohomology rings and classify their cohomology endomorphisms; Then by embedding the flag manifold of a classical Lie group into its…
In the present article we discuss the classification of quantum groups whose quasi-classical limit is a given simple complex Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. This problem reduces to the classification of all Lie bialgebra structures on…
We define Drinfeld orbifold algebras as filtered algebras deforming the skew group algebra (semi-direct product) arising from the action of a finite group on a polynomial ring. They simultaneously generalize Weyl algebras, graded (or…
In this work, we study symplectic structures on graded manifolds and their global counterparts, higher Lie groupoids. We begin by introducing the concept of graded manifold, starting with the degree 1 case, and translating key geometric…
We study Lie bialgebroid crossed modules which are pairs of Lie algebroid crossed modules in duality that canonically give rise to Lie bialgebroids. A one-one correspondence between such Lie bialgebroid crossed modules and co-quadratic…
A notion of Drinfeld polynomials is introduced for modules of two-parameter quantum affine algebras. Finite dimensional representations are then characterized by sets of $l$-tuples of pairs of Drinfeld polynomials with certain conditions.
A notion of an algebroid - a generalization of a Lie algebroid structure is introduced. We show that many objects of the differential calculus on a manifold M associated with the canonical Lie algebroid structure on T^M can be obtained in…
Lie n-algebroids and Lie infinity algebroids are usually thought of exclusively in supergeometric or algebraic terms. In this work, we apply the higher derived brackets construction to obtain a geometric description of Lie n-algebroids by…
We show how the relation between $Q$-manifolds and Lie algebroids extends to ``higher'' or ``non-linear'' analogs of Lie algebroids. We study the identities satisfied by a new algebraic structure that arises as a replacement of operations…
We consider generalizations of symplectic manifolds called n-plectic manifolds. A manifold is n-plectic if it is equipped with a closed, nondegenerate form of degree n+1. We show that higher structures arise on these manifolds which can be…
Using special quasigraded Lie algebras we obtain new hierarchies of integrable nonlinear vector equations admitting zero-curvature representations. Among them the most interesting is extension of the generalized Landau-Lifshitz hierarchy…
Applications of algebras in physics are related to the connection of measurable observables to relevant elements of the algebras, usually the generators. However, in the determination of the generators in Lie algebras there is place for…
We generalize the Donagi and Witten construction of a first obstruction class for splitting of a supermanifold via differential operators using the theory of $n$-fold vector bundles and graded manifolds. Applying the generalized…
In this paper we use graded supergeometry to define and study $L_{\infty}$-bialgebras and their Drinfeld doubles a la Roytenberg & Voronov.
We introduce and examine the notion of principal $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-bundles, i.e., principal bundles in the category of $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-manifolds. The latter are higher graded extensions of supermanifolds in which a $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-grading…
The notion of a generalized Lie bialgebroid (a generalization of the notion of a Lie bialgebroid) is introduced in such a way that a Jacobi manifold has associated a canonical generalized Lie bialgebroid. As a kind of converse, we prove…
We present a formal algebraic language to deal with quantum deformations of Lie-Rinehart algebras - or Lie algebroids, in a geometrical setting. In particular, extending the ice-breaking ideas introduced by Xu in [Ping Xu, "Quantum…
Let $S$ be a spinor bundle of a pseudo-Euclidean vector bundle $(E,\mathrm{g})$ of even rank. We introduce a new filtration on the algebra $\mathcal{D}(M,S)$ of differential operators on $S$. As main property, the associated graded algebra…
