Linear Algebra on the Lie Algebra on Two Generators

Abstract Details

2022, Master of Arts (MA), Bowling Green State University, Mathematics/Mathematics (Pure).
In this thesis, we study the free Lie algebra on two generators and a deformation of the free Lie bracket. Our goal is a hands-on derivation of relations which this deformed Lie bracket satisfies. The technical achievement that makes this possible is the identification of a basis for where the relations occur. Using that basis, we verify and extend the calculations found in Schneps (2006). An interesting connection to the Euler polynomials is also discussed.
