Omni-Lie 2-algebras and their Dirac structures

We introduce the notion of omni-Lie 2-algebra, which is a categorification of Weinstein's omni-Lie algebras. We prove that there is a one-to-one correspondence between strict Lie 2-algebra structures on 2-sub-vector spaces of a 2-vector space $\V$ and Dirac structures on the omni-Lie 2-algebra $ \gl(\V)\oplus \V $. In particular, strict Lie 2-algebra structures on $\V$ itself one-to-one correspond to Dirac structures of the form of graphs. Finally, we introduce the notion of twisted omni-Lie 2-algebra to describe (non-strict) Lie 2-algebra structures. Dirac structures of a twisted omni-Lie 2-algebra correspond to certain (non-strict) Lie 2-algebra structures, which include string Lie 2-algebra structures.

E-Courant algebroids

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $E$-Courant algebroids, where $E$ is a vector bundle. It is a kind of generalized Courant algebroid and contains Courant algebroids, Courant-Jacobi algebroids and omni-Lie algebroids as its special cases. We explore novel phenomena exhibited by $E$-Courant algebroids and provide many examples. We study the automorphism groups of omni-Lie algebroids and classify the isomorphism classes of exact $E$-Courant algebroids. In addition, we introduce the concepts of $E$-Lie bialgebroids and Manin triples.

Quadratic Deformations of Lie-Poisson Structures

In this letter, first we give a decomposition for any Lie-Poisson structure $π_g$ associated to the modular vector. In particular, $π_g$ splits into two compatible Lie-Poisson structures if $dim{g} \leq 3$. As an application, we classified quadratic deformations of Lie-Poisson structures on $\mathbb R^3$ up to linear diffeomorphisms.

Linear Poisson structures on R^4

We classify all of the 4-dimensional linear Poisson structures of which the corresponding Lie algebras can be considered as the extension by a derivation of 3-dimensional unimodular Lie algebras. The affine Poisson structures on R^3 are totally classified.

Jacobi quasi-Nijenhuis Algebroids

In this paper, for a Jacobi algebroid $A$, by introducing the notion of Jacobi quasi-Nijenhuis algebroids, which is a generalization of Poisson quasi-Nijenhuis manifolds introduced by Stiénon and Xu, we study generalized complex structures on the Courant-Jacobi algebroid $A\oplus A^*$, which unifies generalized complex (contact) structures on an even(odd)-dimensional manifold.

Semidirect products of representations up to homotopy

We study the semidirect product of a Lie algebra with a representation up to homotopy and provide various examples coming from Courant algebroids, string Lie 2-algebras, and omni-Lie algebroids. In the end, we study the semidirect product of a Lie group with a representation up to homotopy and use it to give an integration of a certain string Lie 2-algebra.
