Nonabelian embedding tensors on 3-Lie algebras and 3-Leibniz-Lie algebras
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study nonabelian embedding tensors on 3-Lie algebras, and to explore the fundamental algebraic structures, cohomology and deformations associated with them. First, we introduce the concept of nonabelian embedding tensors on 3-Lie algebras. Then, we present the concept of a 3-Leibniz-Lie algebra, which constitutes the fundamental algebraic framework for a nonabelian embedding tensor on a 3-Lie algebra. Additionally, we examine the 3-Leibniz-Lie algebras that are derived from Leibniz-Lie algebras. Finally, we develop the cohomology of nonabelian embedding tensors on 3-Lie algebras and utilize the first cohomology group to characterize infinitesimal deformations.
