Abstract

We show that a double Lie algebroid, together with a chosen decomposition, is equivalent to a pair of 2-term representations up to homotopy 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.

Summary

Background and definitions

We briefly recall the definitions of double vector bundles, of their linear and core sections, and of their linear splittings and lifts. The core C of a double vector bundle is the intersection of the kernels of πA and πB. Given a double vector bundle (D; A, B; M), the space of sections B(D) is generated as a C∞(B)-module by two distinguished classes of sections (see [16]), the linear and the core sections which we describe. Definition 2.3 A section ξ ∈ B(D) is called linear if ξ : B → D is a bundle morphism from B → M to D → A over a section a ∈ (A). The fibered product A ×M B is a double vector bundle with side bundles A and B and core M × 0
