Simple left-symmetric algebras with solvable Lie algebra.
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.
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 germs of vector fields leaving fixed in , of finite codimension in symplectic Lie algebra contain the ideal of germs infinitely flat at . We give an application.
Let be a Laurent polynomial algebra over a field of characteristic zero, the Lie algebra of -derivations of the algebra , the so-called Witt Lie algebra, and let be the Virasoro Lie algebra which is a -dimensional central extension of the Witt Lie algebra. The Lie algebras and are infinite dimensional Lie algebras. We prove that the following isomorphisms of the groups of Lie algebra automorphisms hold: , and give a short proof that .
We prove the universal lifting theorem: for an -simply connected and -connected Lie groupoid with Lie algebroid , the graded Lie algebra of multi-differentials on is isomorphic to that of multiplicative multi-vector fields on . 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,...
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.
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.
A Weitzenböck formula for the Laplace-Beltrami operator acting on differential forms on Lie algebroids is derived.
