Inner post-Lie algebras and inner post-groups

Abstract

In this paper, using extension theory and cohomological approach we introduce the notion of the obstruction class for an inner post-Lie algebra being induced by a Rota-Baxter operator, and show that an inner post-Lie algebra is induced by a Rota-Baxter operator if and only if the obstruction class is trivial. Similarly, we introduce the notion of the obstruction class for an inner post-group being induced by a Rota-Baxter operator, and prove a parallel result. Finally, we give some applications of inner post-Lie algebras and inner post-groups.
