Abstract

We calculate the enveloping Lie algebras of Leibniz algebras of dimensions two and three. We show how these Lie algebras could be used to distinguish non-isomorphic (nilpotent) Leibniz algebras of low dimension in some cases. These results could be used to associate geometric objects (loop spaces) to low dimensional Leibniz algebras.

Highlights

  • We work with vector spaces over a field F of characteristic 0, our results can be extended in obvious way to the case of vector spaces over a field of positive characteristic, or even over a commutative ring with unit

  • The main tool to classify Low dimensional Leibniz algebras is to find the corresponding enveloping Lie algebra and fit them in the Beck-Kolman list of low dimensional Lie algebras. Since these Lie algebras are realized as certain quotients of the given Leibniz algebras, we first need the following fact

  • This theorem could be used to prove that some Leibniz algebras are non-isomorphic

Summary

Introduction

We work with vector spaces (and algebras) over a field F of characteristic 0, our results can be extended in obvious way to the case of vector spaces over a field of positive characteristic (not equal 2), or even over a commutative ring with unit. By an algebra L, , we mean a vector space L over F with a (not necessarily associative) bilinear operation : L L L. We work with a class of algebras in which the left multiplication map has a stronger compatibility relation with derivations. These are Leibniz algebras, introduced by J. L. Loday [1], as non-antisymmetric generalizations of Lie algebras
