Secondary Characteristic Classes of Lie Algebra Extensions
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce a notion of secondary characteristic classes of Lie algebra extensions. As a spin-off of our construction we obtain a new proof of Lecomte’s generalization of the Chern–Weil homomorphism.

Universal Central Extension of Current Superalgebras
Representation as well as central extension are two of the most important concepts in the theory of Lie (super)algebras. Apart from the interest of mathematicians, the attention of physicist are also drawn to these two subjects because of the significant amount of their applications in Physics. In fact for physicists, the study of projective representations of Lie (super)algebras are very impo...
متن کاملGroupoid extensions, principal 2-group bundles and characteristic classes
We give an explicit description of a 1-1 correspondence between Morita equivalence classes of, on the one hand, principal 2-group [G → Aut(G)]bundles over Lie groupoids (i.e. [G → Aut(G)]-bundles over differentiable stacks) and, on the other hand, centralG-extensions of Lie groupoids (i.e. Ggerbes over differentiable stacks). We also introduce universal characteristic classes for 2-group bundle...
متن کاملMonomial Irreducible sln-Modules
In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.
متن کاملNovikov Structures on Solvable Lie Algebras
We study Novikov algebras and Novikov structures on finite-dimensional Lie algebras. We show that a Lie algebra admitting a Novikov structure must be solvable. Conversely we present an example of a nilpotent 2-step solvable Lie algebra without any Novikov structure. We construct Novikov structures on certain Lie algebras via classical r-matrices and via extensions. In the latter case we lift No...
متن کاملClassical R-matrices and Novikov Algebras
We study the existence problem for Novikov algebra structures on finite-dimensional Lie algebras. We show that a Lie algebra admitting a Novikov algebra is necessarily solvable. Conversely we present a 2-step solvable Lie algebra without any Novikov structure. We use extensions and classical r-matrices to construct Novikov structures on certain classes of solvable Lie algebras.
