Cohomology and 1-parameter formal deformations of Hom-Lie triple systems (1309.3347v1)
Published 13 Sep 2013 in math.RA
Abstract: In this paper, we study the cohomology theory of Hom-Lie triple systems generalizing the Yamaguti cohomology theory of Lie triple systems. We introduce the central extension theory for Hom-Lie triple systems and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between equivalent classes of central extensions of Hom-Lie triple systems and the third cohomology group. We develop the 1-parameter formal deformation theory of Hom-Lie triple systems, and prove that it is governed by the cohomology group.
