Two-Step Nilpotent Lie Algebras Obtained by Quivers and Geometric Structures
摘要
In the study of geometric structures on nilmanifolds, two-step nilpotent Lie algebras obtained by graphs play an important role. Recently, additional examples of nilpotent Lie algebras have been constructed from finite quivers without cycles. These latter examples can have arbitrarily high degrees of nilpotency, and admit Riemannian Ricci soliton metrics. In this paper, we study nilpotent Lie algebras obtained by finite quivers without cycles that are two-step nilpotent, and we prove that they can also be obtained by graphs. Using this relationship, we demonstrate that every two-step nilpotent Lie algebra obtained by a finite quiver without cycles admits a pseudo-Riemannian Ricci-flat metric. Additionally, we also classify these nilpotent Lie algebras that admit symplectic structures.
