Abstract:
The objective of the present work is to study the structure of
Binary-Lie algebras,
i.e. algebras where every pair of elements generates a Lie algebra. It is known
that every Malcev algebra is Binary-Lie. We will study the relation of
BL-algebras with assocyclic algebras (also called semialternative
algebras) those are the algebras that satisfy
the identity (ab)c-a(bc) = (bc)a-b(ca). If the original product of an assocyclic
algebra is replaced by the Lie product ([a, b] = ab - ba) a Binary-Lie
algebras is
obtained as a result. We are interested in to find out whether every
Binary-Lie algebra
can be obtained by this process. This result would be a generalization
of the well
known Poincar“e-Birkhoff-Witt theorem. We plan also to start with the
study of finite dimesional Binary-Lie superalgebras.
