The Schur Lie-Multiplier of Leibinz Algebras

Abstract

For a free presentation $0\to R\to F\to G\to 0$ of a Leibniz algebra $G$, the Baer invariant ${\mathcal{M}}^{\mathsf{Lie}}(G)=\frac{R\cap [F,F{]}_{Lie}}{[F,R{]}_{Lie}}$ is called the Schur multiplier of $G$ relative to the Liezation functor or Schur Lie-multiplier. For a two-sided ideal $N$ of a Leibniz algebra $G$, we construct a four-term exact sequence relating the Schur Lie-multiplier of $G$ and $G/N$, which is applied to study and characterize Lie-nilpotency, Lie-stem covers and Lie-capability of Leibniz algebras.
