We prove that the hierarchy of higher antibrackets (aka higher Koszul brackets, aka Koszul braces) of a linear operator ∆ on a commutative superalgebra can be defined by some universal formulas involving iterated Nijenhuis–Richardson brackets having as arguments ∆ and the multiplication operators. As a byproduct, we can immediately extend higher antibrackets to noncommutative algebras in a way ...

We describe a generalization to Optimal Control of the theory of envelopes of the classical Calculus of Variations. This generalization extends our previous work, by allowing the use of \quasi-extremal" trajectories, i.e. trajectories that satisfy all the conditions of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle except for the fact that the sign of the constant 0 that appears in the Hamiltonian multiplyin...

A vector eld on a connected Lie group is said to be linear if its ow is a one parameter group of automorphisms. A control-a ne system is linear if the drift is linear and the controlled vector elds right invariant. The controllability properties of such systems are studied, mainly in the case where the derivation of the group Lie algebra that can be associated to the linear vector eld is inner....

W. H. Davenport has shown that the derivation algebra 3)(4) of a semisimple Malcev algebra A of characteristic 0 acts completely reducibly on A. The purpose of the present note is to characterize those Malcev algebras which have such derivation algebras as those whose radical is central and to obtain the same result for Lie triple systems. Analogous results are known to hold for standard and al...

Let M be a 2 and 3-torsion free prime Γ-ring, d a nonzero derivation on M and U a nonzero Lie ideal of M . In this paper it is proved that U is a central Lie ideal of M if d satisfies one of the following (i) d(U) ⊂ Z, (ii) d(U) ⊂ U and d(U) = 0, (iii) d(U) ⊂ U , d(U) ⊂ Z.

A new singular perturbation method based on the Lie symmetry group is presented to a system of difference equations. This method yields consistent derivation of a renormalization group equation which gives an asymptotic solution of the difference equation. The renormalization group equation is a Lie differential equation of a Lie group which leaves the system approximately invariant. For a 2-D ...

In one of our recent papers, the associative and the Lie algebras of Weyl type A[D] = A⊗IF [D] were defined and studied, where A is a commutative associative algebra with an identity element over a field IF of any characteristic, and IF [D] is the polynomial algebra of a commutative derivation subalgebra D of A. In the present paper, a class of the above associative and Lie algebras A[D] with I...

Several integration schemes exits to solve the equations of motion of the N -body problem. The Lie-integration method is based on the idea to solve ordinary differential equations with Lie-series. In the 1980s this method was applied for the N -body problem by giving the recurrence formula for the calculation of the Lie-terms. The aim of this works is to present the recurrence formulae for the ...

Let $R$ be a prime ring with its Utumi ring of quotients $U$,  $C=Z(U)$ the extended centroid of $R$, $L$ a non-central Lie ideal of $R$ and $0neq a in R$. If $R$ admits a generalized derivation $F$ such that $a(F(u^2)pm F(u)^{2})=0$ for all $u in L$, then one of the following holds: begin{enumerate} item there exists $b in U$ such that $F(x)=bx$ for all $x in R$, with $ab=0$; item $F(x)=...
