Abstract:

This paper is devoted to deformation theory of graded Lie algebras over Z or Zl with finite dimensional graded pieces. Such deformation problems naturally appear in number theory. In the first part of the paper, we use Schlessinger criteria for functors on Artinian local rings in order to obtain universal deformation rings for deformations of graded Lie algebras and their graded representations. In the second part, we use a version of Schlessinger criteria for functors on the Artinian category of nilpotent Lie algebras which is formulated by Pridham, and explore arithmetic deformations using this technique.

Deformation theory via differential graded Lie algebras

This is an expository paper written in 1999 and published in Seminari di Geometria Algebrica 1998-1999, Scuola Normale Superiore (1999). Six years later some arguments used here appear quite naive and obsolete but, in view of the several citations that this paper has obtained in the meantime, I preferred don’t change the mathematical contents and to fix only some typos and minor mistakes. For a...

Global and Arithmetic Hom-Lie Algebras

Hom-Lie algebras are non-associative, non-commutative algebras generalizing Lie algebras by twisting the Jacobi identity by a homomorphism. The main examples are algebras of twisted derivations (i.e., linear maps with a generalized Leibniz rule). Such generalized derivations appear in all parts of number theory, so hom-Lie algebras appear to have a natural role to play in many number-theoretica...

Representation theory of Lie algebras

In these notes, we give a brief overview of the (finite dimensional) representation theory of finite dimensional semisimple Lie algebras. We first study the example of sl2(C) and then provide the general (additive) theory, along with an analysis of the representations of sl3(C). In the last section, we have a look at the multiplicative structure of the representation ring, discussing examples f...

Lie $^$-double derivations on Lie $C^$-algebras

A unital $C^*$ -- algebra $mathcal A,$ endowed withthe Lie product $[x,y]=xy- yx$ on $mathcal A,$ is called a Lie$C^*$ -- algebra. Let $mathcal A$ be a Lie $C^*$ -- algebra and$g,h:mathcal A to mathcal A$ be $Bbb C$ -- linear mappings. A$Bbb C$ -- linear mapping $f:mathcal A to mathcal A$ is calleda Lie $(g,h)$ -- double derivation if$f([a,b])=[f(a),b]+[a,f(b)]+[g(a),h(b)]+[h(a),g(b)]$ for all ...
