Abstract: The existence of a flat torsion-free connection, or left symmetric algebra structure on a Lie algebra g gives rise to a canonically defined complex structure on g+g and a symplectic structure on g+g^*. We verify that the associated differential Gerstenhaber algebras controlling the deformation theories of the complex and symplectic form are isomorphic. This provides a class of examples of "weak mirror symmetry" as suggested by Merkulov. For nilpotent algebras in dimension 4 and 6 the isomorphism classes of the semi-direct products g+g and g+g^* are listed. A one-parameter family of inequivalent pseudo-K"ahler structures is given.

Review text

The authors consider weak mirror symmetry of Lie algebras. They show that the semi-direct product of a Lie algebra equipped with a torsion-free flat connection with itself is a mirror partner of a semi-direct product of the same Lie algebra with its dual space. For nilpotent algebras this analysis on Lie algebra can be applied to the compact quotients of the underlying nilpotent group. The authors also classify mirror pairs among 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras that have the semi-direct product structure as well as mirror pairs admitting the more involved special Lagrangian structure. In particular, all computation and results on nilpotent algebras can be used to provide a full description of the differential Gerstenhaber algebras of any invariant complex structures on nilmanifolds in all dimensions.
