Quasi-Lie algebras in nature?
A Lie algebra over $\mathbb Z$ is defined to be an abelian group with a bracketing operation $[\cdot,\cdot]$, satisfying the Jacobi identity and the relation $[x,x]=0$ for every $x$. On the other hand …

Quasi-Lie algebras in nature?
Tom Goodwillie:
The homotopy groups of a (say, simply connected) space $X$ form a graded Lie algebra under Whitehead product, in which the even-dimensional part (which is actually the $\pi_n$ for …

Good and/or standard notation for the abelianization of a Lie algebra
I'd like to solicit good notations for the abelianization of a Lie algebra $\mathfrak g$. One could write $\mathfrak g/[\mathfrak g,\mathfrak g]$, or even $H_1(\mathfrak g)$ but I'd like something tha …
