We study some properties of the non-abelian tensor product of Hom-Lie algebras concerning the preservation of products and quotients, solvability and nilpotency, and describe compatibility with the universal central extensions of perfect Hom-Lie algebras.
In this paper, we introduce the notion of a derivation of a Hom-Lie algebra and construct the corresponding strict Hom-Lie 2-algebra, which is called the derivation Hom-Lie 2-algebra. As applications, we study non-abelian extensions of Hom-Lie algebr
as. We show that iso- morphism classes of diagonal non-abelian extensions of a Hom-Lie algebra g by a Hom-Lie algebra h are in one-to-one correspondence with homotopy classes of morphisms from g to the derivation Hom-Lie 2-algebra DER(h).
In this paper, first we show that under the assumption of the center of h being zero, diagonal non-abelian extensions of a regular Hom-Lie algebra g by a regular Hom-Lie algebra h are in one-to-one correspondence with Hom-Lie algebra morphisms from g
to Out(h). Then for a general Hom-Lie algebra morphism from g to Out(h), we construct a cohomology class as the obstruction of existence of a non-abelian extension that induce the given Hom-Lie algebra morphism.
We introduce the notion of 3-Hom-Lie-Rinehart algebra and systematically describe a cohomology complex by considering coefficient modules. Furthermore, we consider extensions of a 3-Hom-Lie-Rinehart algebra and characterize the first cohomology space
in terms of the group of automorphisms of an $A$-split abelian extension and the equivalence classes of $A$-split abelian extensions. Finally, we study formal deformations of 3-Hom-Lie-Rinehart algebras.
The set HLie(n) of the n-dimensional Hom-Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero is provided with a structure of algebraic subvariety of the affine plane of dimension n^2(n-1)/2}. For n=3, these two sets coincide, for n
=4 it is an hypersurface in K^{24}. For n>4, we describe the scheme of polynomial equations which define HLie(n). We determine also what are the classes of Hom-Lie algebras which are P-algebras where P is a binary quadratic operads.
