Deformations of Lie algebras using \(\sigma\)-derivations. (English) Zbl 1138.17012

Summary: We develop an approach to deformations of the Witt and Virasoro algebras based on \(\sigma\)-derivations. We show that \(\sigma\)-twisted Jacobi type identity holds for generators of such deformations. For the \(\sigma\)-twisted generalization of Lie algebras modeled by this construction, we develop a theory of central extensions. We show that our approach can be used to construct new deformations of Lie algebras and their central extensions, which in particular include naturally the \(q\)-deformations of the Witt and Virasoro algebras associated to \(q\)-difference operators, providing also corresponding \(q\)-deformed Jacobi identities.
