In this paper, we firstly construct an $L_\infty[1]$-algebra via the method of higher derived brackets, whose Maurer-Cartan elements correspond to relative $\Omega$-family Rota-Baxter algebras structures of weight $\lambda$. For a relative…
An LR-structure on a Lie algebra is a bilinear product, satisfying certain commutativity relations, and which is compatible with the Lie product. LR-structures arise in the study of simply transitive affine actions on Lie groups. In…
We prove that a Lie conformal algebra L with bounded locality function is embeddable into an associative conformal algebra A with the same bound on the locality function. If L is nilpotent, then so is A, and the nilpotency index remains the…
Inspired by the work of Chevalley and Eilenberg on the de Rham cohomology on compact Lie groups, we prove that, under certain algebraic and topological conditions, the cohomology associated to left-invariant elliptic, and even hypocomplex,…
This article explores \Z_2-graded L_\infinity algebra structures on a 2|1-dimensional vector space. The reader should note that our convention on the parities is the opposite of the usual one, because we define our structures on the…
We characterize $A_\infty$-structures that are transfers over a chain homotopy equivalence or a quasi-isomorphism, answering a question posed by D. Sullivan. Along the way, we present an obstruction theory for weak $A_\infty$-morphisms over…
The problem of non-solvable contractions of Lie algebras is analyzed. By means of a stability theorem, the problem is shown to be deeply related to the embeddings among semisimple Lie algebras and the resulting branching rules for…
Extended geometry provides a unified framework for double geometry, exceptional geometry, etc., i.e., for the geometrisations of the string theory and M-theory dualities. In this talk, we will explain the structure of gauge transformations…
We introduce a new cohomology for Lie algebroids, and prove that it provides a differential graded Lie algebra which ``controls'' deformations of the structure bracket of the algebroid. We also have a closer look at various special cases…
We consider deformations of finite or infinite dimensional Lie algebras over a field of characteristic 0. There is substantial confusion in the literature if one tries to describe all the non-equivalent deformations of a given Lie algebra.…
The notions of conformal Lie 2-algebras and conformal omni-Lie algebras are introduced and studied. It is proved that the category of conformal Lie 2-algebras and the category of 2-term conformal $L_{\infty}$-algebras are equivalent. We…
The metric approach to studying 2-step nilpotent Lie algebras by making use of non-degenerate scalar products is realised. We show that any 2-step nilpotent Lie algebra is isomorphic to its standard pseudo-metric form, that is a 2-step…
While $L_\infty$ algebras are fundamental structures in differential geometry and mathematical physics, the geometric information encoded in such structures is often implicit. We address the following question: What constitutes a…
We introduce a remarkable subset "the stem" of the set of positive roots of a reduced root system. The stem determines several interesting decompositions of the corresponding reductive Lie algebra. It gives also a nice simple three…
This paper studies averaging algebras, say, associative algebras endowed with averaging operators. We develop a cohomology theory for averaging algebras and justify it by interpreting lower degree cohomology groups as formal deformations…
In this contributed presentation, we discuss and compare the mutually opposite procedures of deformations and contractions of Lie algebras. We suggest that with appropriate combinations of both procedures one may construct new Lie algebras.…
We explain how deformation theories of geometric objects such as complex structures, Poisson structures and holomorphic bundle structures lead to differential Gerstenhaber or Poisson algebras. We use homological perturbation theory to…
Given two Lie $\infty$-algebras $E$ and $V$, any Lie $\infty$-action of $E$ on $V$ defines a Lie $\infty$-algebra structure on $E\oplus V$. Some compatibility between the action and the Lie $\infty$-structure on $V$ is needed to obtain a…
Using group actions and orbit-stabilizer methods, we study the geometry of isomorphism classes of finite-dimensional $\omega$-Lie algebras over a field $\mathbb{K}$ of characteristic $\neq 2$ and establish a one-to-one correspondence…
A study is made of real Lie algebras admitting a hypersymplectic structure, and we provide a method to construct such hypersymplectic Lie algebras. We use this method in order to obtain the classification of all hypersymplectic structures…
