Lie Quandles, Leibniz Racks and Noether's First Theorem
- 1University of South Florida, USA
Abstract
In [Internat. J. Theoret. Phys. 64 (2025), 73, 10 pages], Fritz was motivated by the structure of Hamiltonian/Heisenberg mechanics to define the notion of ''Lie quandle'', which he argued is a nonlinear generalization of finite-dimensional real Lie algebras. In this article, we will investigate a linear/nonlinear correspondence to which Fritz's is a special case, classify a family of generalizations of these objects, as well as describe some results in the direction of a nonlinear analogue of Noether's first theorem first described by Fritz.
