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.

“A box of teak, a box of sandalwood,
A brass-ringed spyglass in a case,
A coin, leaf-thin with many polishings,
Last kingdom of a gold forgotten face,
These lie about the room....”
—Philip Larkin (19221986)
