On flat pseudo-Euclidean solvable Malcev algebras

A pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebra is a Malcev algebra equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form. In this paper, we introduce a curvature operator for pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras, generalizing the notion of curvature for pseudo-Euclidean Lie algebras. We define flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and show that every flat Euclidean solvable Malcev algebra which is also a Lie algebra remains flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense. Furthermore, we develop the flat double extension construction for flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and prove that every flat Lorentzian Malcev algebra with a degenerate center can be obtained via the flat double extension of a flat Euclidean Malcev algebra. Moreover, we demonstrate that all flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebras arise from the flat double extension of a Euclidean abelian Lie algebras. Finally, we establish that any flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebra is necessarily a Lie algebra and is flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense.

Abstract

A pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebra is a Malcev algebra equipped with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form. In this paper, we introduce a curvature operator for pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras, generalizing the notion of curvature for pseudo-Euclidean Lie algebras. We define flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and show that every flat Euclidean solvable Malcev algebra which is also a Lie algebra remains flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense. Furthermore, we develop the flat double extension construction for flat pseudo-Euclidean Malcev algebras and prove that every flat Lorentzian Malcev algebra with a degenerate center can be obtained via the flat double extension of a flat Euclidean Malcev algebra. Moreover, we demonstrate that all flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebras arise from the flat double extension of a Euclidean abelian Lie algebras. Finally, we establish that any flat Lorentzian nilpotent Malcev algebra is necessarily a Lie algebra and is flat in the classical Lie algebra curvature sense.
