In our previous paper (Axiomatic Differential Geometry II-3) we have discussed the general Jacobi identity, from which the Jacobi identity of vector fields follows readily. In this paper we derive Jacobi-like identities of…

We describe an interesting relation between Lie 2-algebras, the Kac-Moody central extensions of loop groups, and the group $\mathrm{String}(n)$. A Lie 2-algebra is a categorified version of a Lie algebra where the Jacobi identity holds up…

We prove a special case of a conjecture of Davison which pertains to superpotential descriptions of fundamental group algebras $k[\pi_1(X)]$. We consider the case in which the manifold $X$ is the mapping torus $M_{g, \varphi}$ of a genus…

Suppose $X$ is a hyperelliptic curve of genus $g$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p=2$. We prove that the de Rham cohomology of $X$ decomposes into pieces indexed by the branch points of the hyperelliptic…

We consider four-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with commuting higher order Jacobi operators defined on two-dimensional orthogonal subspaces (polygons) and on their orthogonal subspaces. More precisely, we discuss higher order Jacobi…

Frolicher and Nijenhuis recognized well in the middle of the previous century that the Lie bracket and its Jacobi identity could and should exist beyond Lie algebras. Nevertheless the conceptual meaning of their discovery has been obscured…

We present a method for associating labeled directed graphs to finite-dimensional Lie algebras, thereby enabling rapid identification of key structural algebraic features. To formalize this approach, we introduce the concept of…

Naturally reductive spaces, in general, can be seen as an adequate generalization of Riemannian symmetric spaces. Nevertheless, there are some that are closer to symmetric spaces than others. On the one hand, there is the series of Hopf…

Jacobi algebroids (i.e. `Jacobi versions' of Lie algebroids) are studied in the context of graded Jacobi brackets on graded commutative algebras. This unifies varios concepts of graded Lie structures in geometry and physics. A method of…

Lie algebras of dimension $n$ are defined by their structure constants , which can be seen as sets of $N = n^2 (n -- 1)/2$ scalars (if we take into account the skew-symmetry condition) to which the Jacobi identity imposes certain quadratic…

This paper continues the study of decompositions of a smooth 4-manifold into two handlebodies with handles of index $\leq2$. Part I gave existence results in terms of spines and chain complexes over the fundamental group of the ambient…

We prove the noncommutative analogue of Jacobi triple product identity. As an application we organizing the q-characters of circular quiver gauge theories into an infinite product. We conjecture the gauge origami theory interpretation of…

An identity is proved connecting two finite sums of inverse tangents. This identity is discretized version of Jacobi's imaginary transformation for the modular angle from the theory of elliptic functions. Some other related identities are…

In this survey, we review the classical Hamilton Jacobi theory from a geometric point of view in different geometric backgrounds. We propose a Hamilton Jacobi equation for different geometric structures attending to one particular…

We describe a method for solving the Maurer-Cartan structure equation associated with a Lie algebra that isolates the role of the Jacobi identity as an obstruction to integration. We show that the method naturally adapts to two other…

Quadratic Poisson brackets on associative algebras are studied. Such a bracket compatible with the multiplication is related to a differentiation in tensor square of the underlying algebra. Jacobi identity means that this differentiation…

A theorem of Kirby gives a necessary and sufficient condition for two framed links in S^3 to yield orientation-preserving diffeomorphic results of surgery. Kirby's theorem is an important method for constructing invariants of 3-manifolds.…

For an abelian group G we consider braiding in a category of G-graded modules $M^{kG}$ given by a bicharacter \chi on G. For $(G,\chi)$-bialgebra A in $M^{kG}$ an analog of Lie bracket is defined. This bracket is determined by a linear map…

In this lecutre note, we consider infinite dimensional Lie algebras of generalized Jacobi matrices $\mathfrak{g}J(k)$ and $\mathfrak{gl}_\infty(k)$, which are important in soliton theory, and their orthogonal and symplectic subalgebras. In…
