Poincaré’s proof of the co-called Birkhoff-Witt theorem

Tuong Ton-That, Thai-Duong Tran (1999)

Revue d'histoire des mathématiques

A methodical analysis of the research related to the article, “Sur les groupes continus”, of Henri Poincaré reveals many historical misconceptions and inaccuracies regarding his contribution to Lie theory. A thorough reading of this article confirms the priority of his discovery of many important concepts, especially that of the universal enveloping algebra of a Lie algebra over the real or complex field, and the canonical map (symmetrization) of the symmetric algebra onto the universal enveloping...

Poisson Lie groups and their relations to quantum groups

Janusz Grabowski (1995)

Banach Center Publications

The notion of Poisson Lie group (sometimes called Poisson Drinfel'd group) was first introduced by Drinfel'd [1] and studied by Semenov-Tian-Shansky [7] to understand the Hamiltonian structure of the group of dressing transformations of a completely integrable system. The Poisson Lie groups play an important role in the mathematical theories of quantization and in nonlinear integrable equations. The aim of our lecture is to point out the naturality of this notion and to present basic facts about...

Poisson-Lie groupoids and the contraction procedure

Kenny De Commer (2015)

Banach Center Publications

On the level of Lie algebras, the contraction procedure is a method to create a new Lie algebra from a given Lie algebra by rescaling generators and letting the scaling parameter tend to zero. One of the most well-known examples is the contraction from 𝔰𝔲(2) to 𝔢(2), the Lie algebra of upper-triangular matrices with zero trace and purely imaginary diagonal. In this paper, we will consider an extension of this contraction by taking also into consideration the natural bialgebra structures on these...

Pre-derivations and description of non-strongly nilpotent filiform Leibniz algebras

K.K. Abdurasulov, A.Kh. Khudoyberdiyev, M. Ladra, A.M. Sattarov (2021)

Communications in Mathematics

In this paper we give the description of some non-strongly nilpotent Leibniz algebras. We pay our attention to the subclass of nilpotent Leibniz algebras, which is called filiform. Note that the set of filiform Leibniz algebras of fixed dimension can be decomposed into three disjoint families. We describe the pre-derivations of filiform Leibniz algebras for the first and second families and determine those algebras in the first two classes of filiform Leibniz algebras that are non-strongly nilpotent....
