Omni-Lie 2-algebras and their Dirac structures
We introduce the notion of omni-Lie 2-algebra, which is a categorification of
Weinstein's omni-Lie algebras. We prove that there is a one-to-one
correspondence between strict Lie 2-algebra structures on 2-sub-vector spaces
of a 2-vector space \V and Dirac structures on the omni-Lie 2-algebra
\gl(\V)\oplus \V . In particular, strict Lie 2-algebra structures on \V
itself one-to-one correspond to Dirac structures of the form of graphs.
Finally, we introduce the notion of twisted omni-Lie 2-algebra to describe
(non-strict) Lie 2-algebra structures. Dirac structures of a twisted omni-Lie
2-algebra correspond to certain (non-strict) Lie 2-algebra structures, which
include string Lie 2-algebra structures.Comment: 23 page
Conservative algebras of -dimensional algebras, II
In 1990 Kantor defined the conservative algebra of all algebras (i.e.
bilinear maps) on the -dimensional vector space. If , then the algebra
does not belong to any well-known class of algebras (such as
associative, Lie, Jordan, or Leibniz algebras). We describe automorphisms,
one-sided ideals, and idempotents of Also similar problems are solved
for the algebra of all commutative algebras on the 2-dimensional vector
space and for the algebra of all commutative algebras with trace zero
multiplication on the 2-dimensional vector space
Irreducible Modules for the Lie Algebra of Divergence Zero Vector Fields on a Torus
This paper investigates the irreducibility of certain representations for the
Lie algebra of divergence zero vector fields on a torus. In "Irreducible
Representations of the Lie-Algebra of the Diffeomorphisms of a d-Dimensional
Torus," S. Eswara Rao constructs modules for the Lie algebra of polynomial
vector fields on a d-dimensional torus, and determines the conditions for
irreducibility. The current paper considers the restriction of these modules to
the subalgebra of divergence zero vector fields. It is shown here that Rao's
results transfer to similar irreducibility conditions for the Lie algebra of
divergence zero vector fields.Comment: 13 page
Superspace Geometrical Representations of Extended Super Virasoro Algebras
Utilizing sets of super-vector fields (derivations), explicit expressions are
obtained for; (a.) the 1D, N-extended superconformal algebra, (b.) the 1D,
N-extended super Virasoro algebra for N = 1, 2 and 4 and (c.) a geometrical
realization (GR) covering algebra that contains the super Virasoro algebra for
arbitrary values of N. By use of such vector fileds, the super Virasoro algebra
is embedded as a geometrical and model-independent structure in 1D and 2D
Aleph-null-extended superspace.Comment: 13 pages, Late
On the representations and -equivariant normal form for solenoidal Hopf-zero singularities
In this paper, we deal with the solenoidal conservative Lie algebra
associated to the classical normal form of Hopf-zero singular system. We
concentrate on the study of some representations and -equivariant
normal form for such singular differential equations. First, we list some of
the representations that this Lie algebra admits. The vector fields from this
Lie algebra could be expressed by the set of ordinary differential equations
where the first two of them are in the canonical form of a one-degree of
freedom Hamiltonian system and the third one depends upon the first two
variables. This representation is governed by the associated Poisson algebra to
one sub-family of this Lie algebra. Euler's form, vector potential, and Clebsch
representation are other representations of this Lie algebra that we list here.
We also study the non-potential property of vector fields with Hopf-zero
singularity from this Lie algebra. Finally, we examine the unique normal form
with non-zero cubic terms of this family in the presence of the symmetry group
. The theoretical results of normal form theory are illustrated
with the modified Chua's oscillator
