Contact Lie poset algebras (Q2170787): Difference between revisions

Summary: We provide a combinatorial recipe for constructing all posets of height at most two for which the corresponding type-A Lie poset algebra is contact. In the case that such posets are connected, a discrete Morse theory argument establishes that the posets' simplicial realizations are contractible. It follows from a cohomological result of \textit{V. E. Coll jun.} and \textit{M. Gerstenhaber} [J. Lie Theory 26, No. 1, 79--95 (2016; Zbl 1404.17032)] on Lie semi-direct products that the corresponding contact Lie algebras are absolutely rigid.
