Some division theorems for vector fields

Andrzej Zajtz (1993)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

This paper is concerned with the problem of divisibility of vector fields with respect to the Lie bracket [X,Y]. We deal with the local divisibility. The methods used are based on various estimates, in particular those concerning prolongations of dynamical systems. A generalization to polynomials of the adjoint operator (X) is given.

Some Remarks on Dirac Structures and Poisson Reductions

Zhang-Ju Liu (2000)

Banach Center Publications

Dirac structures are characterized in terms of their characteristic pairs defined in this note and then Poisson reductions are discussed from the point of view of Dirac structures.

Subalgebras of finite codimension in symplectic Lie algebra

Mohammed Benalili, Abdelkader Boucherif (1999)

Archivum Mathematicum

Subalgebras of germs of vector fields leaving 0 fixed in R 2 n , of finite codimension in symplectic Lie algebra contain the ideal of germs infinitely flat at 0 . We give an application.

The groups of automorphisms of the Witt W n and Virasoro Lie algebras

Vladimir V. Bavula (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Let L n = K [ x 1 ± 1 , ... , x n ± 1 ] be a Laurent polynomial algebra over a field K of characteristic zero, W n : = Der K ( L n ) the Lie algebra of K -derivations of the algebra L n , the so-called Witt Lie algebra, and let Vir be the Virasoro Lie algebra which is a 1 -dimensional central extension of the Witt Lie algebra. The Lie algebras W n and Vir are infinite dimensional Lie algebras. We prove that the following isomorphisms of the groups of Lie algebra automorphisms hold: Aut Lie ( Vir ) Aut Lie ( W 1 ) { ± 1 } K * , and give a short proof that Aut Lie ( W n ) Aut K - alg ( L n ) GL n ( ) K * n .

Universal lifting theorem and quasi-Poisson groupoids

David Inglesias-Ponte, Camille Laurent-Gengoux, Ping Xu (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove the universal lifting theorem: for an α -simply connected and α -connected Lie groupoid Γ with Lie algebroid A , the graded Lie algebra of multi-differentials on A is isomorphic to that of multiplicative multi-vector fields on Γ . As a consequence, we obtain the integration theorem for a quasi-Lie bialgebroid, which generalizes various integration theorems in the literature in special cases. The second goal of the paper is the study of basic properties of quasi-Poisson groupoids. In particular,...

Variational calculus on Lie algebroids

Eduardo Martínez (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

It is shown that the Lagrange's equations for a Lagrangian system on a Lie algebroid are obtained as the equations for the critical points of the action functional defined on a Banach manifold of curves. The theory of Lagrangian reduction and the relation with the method of Lagrange multipliers are also studied.

Vector form brackets in Lie algebroids

Albert Nijenhuis (1996)

Archivum Mathematicum

A brief exposition of Lie algebroids, followed by a discussion of vector forms and their brackets in this context - and a formula for these brackets in “deformed” Lie algebroids.

Weitzenböck Formula on Lie Algebroids

Bogdan Balcerzak, Jerzy Kalina, Antoni Pierzchalski (2012)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

A Weitzenböck formula for the Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on differential forms on Lie algebroids is derived.
