Symplectic Leibniz algebras as a non-commutative version of symplectic Lie algebras

Abstract

We introduce symplectic left Leibniz algebras and symplectic right Leibniz algebras as generalizations of symplectic Lie algebras. These algebras possess a left symmetric product and are Lie-admissible. We describe completely symmetric Leibniz algebras that are symplectic as both left and right Leibniz algebras. Additionally, we show that symplectic left or right Leibniz algebras can be constructed from a symplectic Lie algebra and a vector space through a method that combines the double extension process and the $T^*$-extension. This approach allows us to generate a broad class of examples.
