Quasi-Frobenius Lie Algebra

In mathematics, a quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra

over a field is a Lie algebra

equipped with a nondegenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form

, which is a Lie algebra 2-cocycle of with values in . In other words,

for all, in .

If is a coboundary, which means that there exists a linear form such that

then

is called a Frobenius Lie algebra.

Famous quotes containing the words lie and/or algebra:

    The lakes are something which you are unprepared for; they lie up so high, exposed to the light, and the forest is diminished to a fine fringe on their edges, with here and there a blue mountain, like amethyst jewels set around some jewel of the first water,—so anterior, so superior, to all the changes that are to take place on their shores, even now civil and refined, and fair as they can ever be.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Poetry has become the higher algebra of metaphors.
    José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
