- Abstract
- (en) It is well known that, in the semi-abelian category LieAlg𝔽 of Lie algebras over a field 𝔽 with char(𝔽)≠2, algebra actions are represented by derivations. From a categorical point of view, this means that the category LieAlg𝔽 is action representable and the representing object, which is called the actor, is the Lie algebra of derivations. The notion of action representable category has proven to be quite restrictive. For example, if a variety V of non-associative algebras over 𝔽 is action representable, then V must be the category LieAlg𝔽. More recently G. Janelidze introduced the notion of weakly action representable category, which includes a wider class of categories. In this talk we explain that the category LeibAlg𝔽 of Leibniz algebras and the category Pois𝔽 of Poisson algebras are weakly action representable. In both cases we give a construction of the weak actor [X] of a fixed object X and, given two objects X,B, we provide a complete description of the acting morphisms B→[X], i.e. of the morphisms which identify the split extensions of B by X. This is joint work with Alan Cigoli (University of Turin) and Giuseppe Metere (University of Palermo).
