The upcoming talk
At the next session of the TCS,
on the 19th of June 2024,
at 2:15 – 4:15 p.m. CET / 3:15 – 5:15 p.m. EET
Cornelia Vizman (Universitatea de Vest din Timișoara)
shall talk about
“Universal extensions of Lie algebras of Hamiltonian/divergence free vector fields”.
Abstract
This talk is about two conjectures by Claude Roger in [2]. I will shortly recall our older work [1], where we prove the conjecture about the universal central extension of the Lie algebra of Hamiltonian vector fields. Then I will focus on the universal central extension of the Lie algebra of exact divergence free vector fields. To prove this second conjecture, one needs to make a detour in the realm of Leibniz algebras.
Joint work with Bas Janssens (Delft University of Technology) and Leonid Ryvkin (University Claude Bernard Lyon 1)
