Conformal triple derivations and triple homomorphisms of Lie conformal algebras

Abstract

Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a finite Lie conformal algebra. In this paper, we first investigate the conformal derivation algebra $CDer(\mathcal{R})$, the conformal triple derivation algebra $CTDer(\mathcal{R})$ and the generalized conformal triple derivation algebra $GCTDer(\mathcal{R})$. Mainly, we focus on the connections among these derivation algebras. Next, we give a complete classification of (generalized) conformal triple derivation algebras on all finite simple Lie conformal algebras. In particular, $CTDer(\mathcal{R})=CDer(\mathcal{R})$, where $\mathcal{R}$ is a finite simple Lie conformal algebra. But for $GCDer(\mathcal{R})$, we obtain a conclusion that is closely related to $CDer(\mathcal{R})$. Finally, we introduce the definition of triple homomorphism of a Lie conformal algebra. Furthermore, triple homomorphisms of all finite simple Lie conformal algebras are also characterized.
