Symmetric Structures in Mock-Lie Algebras: The Quasi-Centroid and Its Matrix Representations up to Dimension 5

Symmetric structures are key in non-associative algebras. A Mock-Lie algebra, defined by commutativity and the Jacobi identity, shows strong algebraic symmetry. This paper studies the quasi-centroid, which captures the symmetry of linear operators commuting with the algebra’s product. We define the quasi-centroid and set its condition for linear endomorphisms under the bracket operation. We classify matrix representations of quasi-centroids for all Mock-Lie algebras of dimensions 2 to 5 by computing matrices and analyzing coefficient relations. These results provide a foundation for further structural study. We also show that in each case, the centroid is strictly contained in the quasi-centroid, confirming proper containment for all these algebras.

Abstract

Symmetric structures are key in non-associative algebras. A Mock-Lie algebra, defined by commutativity and the Jacobi identity, shows strong algebraic symmetry. This paper studies the quasi-centroid, which captures the symmetry of linear operators commuting with the algebra’s product. We define the quasi-centroid and set its condition for linear endomorphisms under the bracket operation. We classify matrix representations of quasi-centroids for all Mock-Lie algebras of dimensions 2 to 5 by computing matrices and analyzing coefficient relations. These results provide a foundation for further structural study. We also show that in each case, the centroid is strictly contained in the quasi-centroid, confirming proper containment for all these algebras.
