Bv-generators and Lie Algebroids
نویسنده
چکیده
We study the conditions that an operator, defined on the spaces of degree 0 and 1 of a Gerstenhaber or BV algebra, has to satisfy so that we can find an extension that generates the whole algebra. When applied to the Gerstenhaber or BV algebra associated to a Lie algebroid, it gives a global proof of the correspondence between BV-generators and flat connections.

Horizontal Subbundle on Lie Algebroids
Providing an appropriate definition of a horizontal subbundle of a Lie algebroid will lead to construction of a better framework on Lie algebriods. In this paper, we give a new and natural definition of a horizontal subbundle using the prolongation of a Lie algebroid and then we show that any linear connection on a Lie algebroid generates a horizontal subbundle and vice versa. The same correspo...
متن کاملOn the category of Lie n-algebroids
Lie n-algebroids and Lie infinity algebroids are usually thought of exclusively in supergeometric or algebraic terms. In this work, we apply the higher derived brackets construction to obtain a geometric description of Lie n-algebroids by means of brackets and anchors. Moreover, we provide a geometric description of morphisms of Lie n-algebroids over different bases, give an explicit formula fo...
متن کاملDouble Lie algebroids and representations up to homotopy
Weshow that a double Lie algebroid, togetherwith a chosen decomposition, is equivalent to a pair of 2-term representations up tohomotopy satisfying compatibility conditions which extend the notion of matched pair of Lie algebroids. We discuss in detail the double Lie algebroids arising from the tangent bundle of a Lie algebroid and the cotangent bundle of a Lie bialgebroid.
متن کاملVb–algebroids and Representation Theory of Lie Algebroids Alfonso Gracia-saz and Rajan
A VB–algebroid is essentially defined as a Lie algebroid object in the category of vector bundles. There is a one-to-one correspondence between VB–algebroids and certain flat Lie algebroid superconnections, up to a natural notion of equivalence. In this setting, we are able to construct characteristic classes, which in special cases reproduce characteristic classes constructed by Crainic and Fe...
متن کاملDifferential Operators and Actions of Lie Algebroids
We demonstrate that the notions of derivative representation of a Lie algebra on a vector bundle, of semi-linear representation of a Lie group on a vector bundle, and related concepts, may be understood in terms of representations of Lie algebroids and Lie groupoids, and we indicate how these notions extend to derivative representations of Lie algebroids and semi-linear representations of Lie g...
