Aug 22, 2021 at 7:35 | comment | added | Praphulla Koushik | @DenisT. Can you please give reference for seeing Leibniz algebroids as dg Lie algebroids. Thank you :) | |
Aug 21, 2021 at 11:48 | comment | added | Denis T | Another approach is to regard Leibniz algebroids as acyclic dg Lie algebroids concentrated in degrees 0, 1 and 2. There's an equivalence of categories sending a Leibniz algebra $S$ to a complex with degree 0 equal to liefication of $S$ (quotient by an ideal spanned by $[x, x]$), degree 1 being $S$ and degree 2 the kernel of natural projection. So, you can rewrite that non-skew symmetric bracket as a honest dg Lie bracket. | |
