Deformations of Lie brackets: cohomological aspects

Marius Crainic, Ieke Moerdijk (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

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.

Dirac structures and dynamical r -matrices

Zhang-Ju Liu, Ping Xu (2001)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The purpose of this paper is to establish a connection between various objects such as dynamical r -matrices, Lie bialgebroids, and Lagrangian subalgebras. Our method relies on the theory of Dirac structures and Courant algebroids. In particular, we give a new method of classifying dynamical r -matrices of simple Lie algebras 𝔤 , and prove that dynamical r -matrices are in one-one correspondence with certain Lagrangian subalgebras of 𝔤 𝔤 .
