Universal Poisson Envelope for Binary-Lie Algebras

In this article the universal Poisson enveloping algebra for a binary-Lie algebra is constructed. Taking a basis 𝔹 of a binary-Lie algebra B, we consider the symmetric algebra S(B) of polynomials in the elements of 𝔹. We consider two products in S(B), the usual product of polynomials fg and the braces {f, g}, defined by the product in B and the Leibniz rule. This algebra is a general Poisson algebra. We find an ideal I of S(B) such that the factor algebra S(B)/I is the universal Poisson envelope of B. We provide some examples of this construction for known binary-Lie algebras.

Finite Subgroups in Algebras and Cohomology

We give a cohomological characterization of the set of conjugacy classes of finite subgroups of the projective multiplicative group of a finite dimensional algebra that become conjugate to a given group over some finite separable extension of the base field. We provide two applications.
