This contribution studies a specific deformation of algebras with anti-involution. Starting with the observation that twisting the multiplication of such an algebra by its anti-involution generates a Hom-associative algebra of type II, it…
In a deformation quantization of $\Real^n$, the Jacobi identity is automatically satisfied. This article poses the contrary question: Given a set of commutators which satisfies the Jacobi identity, is the resulting associative algebra a…
We study non-trivial deformations of the natural action of the Lie algebra $\mathrm{Vect}({\mathbb R}^n)$ on the space of differential forms on ${\mathbb R}^n$. We calculate abstractions for integrability of infinitesimal multi-parameter…
For each natural number $n$, we define a category whose objects are discriminant algebras in rank $n$, i.e. functorial means of attaching to each rank-$n$ algebra a quadratic algebra with the same discriminant. We show that the discriminant…
For any factorization domain $\cal A$ and an algebra endomorphism $\sigma$ of $\cal A$, there exists a non-associative algebra $({\cal A},\sigma,[\cdot,\cdot])$ with multiplication satisfying skew-symmetry and generalized (twisted) Jacobi…
A class of differential calculi is explored which is determined by a set of automorphisms of the underlying associative algebra. Several examples are presented. In particular, differential calculi on the quantum plane, the $h$-deformed…
In this paper, we consider associative algebras equipped with derivations. A pair consisting of an associative algebra and a distinguished derivation is called an AssDer pair. We study central extensions and formal one-parameter…
This paper studies the formal deformations of differential algebra morphisms. As a consequence, we develop a cohomology theory of differential algebra morphisms to interpret the lower degree cohomology groups as formal deformations. Then,…
We study all possible deformations of the Maxwell algebra. In D=d+1\neq 3 dimensions there is only one-parameter deformation. The deformed algebra is isomorphic to so(d+1,1)\oplus so(d,1) or to so(d,2)\oplus so(d,1) depending on the signs…
A description of a ring of functions on the base of a universal formal deformation for several moduli problems is given. The answer is given in terms of a homology group of a certain dg Lie algebra canonically (up to an essentially unique…
We introduce and study the definition, main properties and applications of iterated twisted tensor products of algebras, motivated by the problem of defining a suitable representative for the product of spaces in noncommutative geometry. We…
In our previous paper math.QA/0409261, we defined a deformation of the group algebra of the group of even elements of a Coxeter group W, and showed that it is flat for all values of parameters if and only if all the rank 3 parabolic…
A dendriform algebra is an associative algebra whose product splits into two binary operations and the associativity splits into three new identities. These algebras arise naturally from some combinatorial objects and through Rota-Baxter…
We introduce a notion of elliptic differential graded Lie algebra. The class of elliptic algebras contains such examples as the algebra of differential forms with values in endomorphisms of a flat vector bundle over a compact manifold, etc.…
A 3-parametric two-sided deformation of Heisenberg algebra (HA), with p,q-deformed commutator in the l.h.s. of basic defining relation and certain deformation of its r.h.s., is introduced and studied. The third deformation parameter \mu…
In this paper, we give a purely cohomological interpretation of the extension problem for associative algebras; that is the problem of extending an associative algebra by another associative algebra. We then give a similar interpretation of…
The deformed algebra $\cal{A(R)}$, depending upon a Yang-Baxter R- matrix, is considered. The conditions under which the algebra is associative are discussed for a general number of oscillators. Four types of solutions satisfying these…
We study several classes of non-associative algebras as possible candidates for deformation quantization in the direction of a Poisson bracket that does not satisfy Jacobi identities. We show that in fact alternative deformation…
Deformational structures, in many aspects generalizing standard elasticity theory, are investigated in abstract form. Within free deformational structures we define algebra of deformations, classify them by its special properties, define…
Lie conformal algebras appear in the theory of vertex algebras. Their relation is similar to that of Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras. Associative conformal algebras play a role in conformal representation theory. We…
