Pre-Lie 2-bialgebras and 2-grade classical Yang-Baxter equations

Abstract

We introduce a notion of a para-Kähler strict Lie 2-algebra, which can be viewed as a categorification of a para-Kähler Lie algebra. In order to study para-Kähler strict Lie 2-algebra in terms of strict pre-Lie 2-algebras, we introduce the Manin triples, matched pairs and bialgebra theory for strict pre-Lie 2-algebras and the equivalent relationships between them are also established. By means of the cohomology theory of Lie 2-algebras, we study the coboundary strict pre-Lie 2-algebras and introduce 2-graded classical Yang-Baxter equations in strict pre-Lie 2-algebras. The solutions of the 2-graded classical Yang-Baxter equations are useful to construct strict pre-Lie 2-algebras and para-Kähler strict Lie 2-algebras. In particular, there is a natural construction of strict pre-Lie 2-bialgebras from the strict pre-Lie 2-algebras.
