In mathematics, a quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra
over a field is a Lie algebra
equipped with a nondegenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form
- , which is a Lie algebra 2-cocycle of with values in . In other words,
for all, in .
If is a coboundary, which means that there exists a linear form such that
then
is called a Frobenius Lie algebra.

Famous quotes containing the words lie and/or algebra:
“The interest in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their relations to each other, but largely in the power to communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
“Poetry has become the higher algebra of metaphors.”
—José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)
