%0 Journal Article %T On pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras: a class of new Lie-admissible algebras %A Zhiqi Chen %A Fuhai Zhu %J Mathematics %D 2008 %I arXiv %X M. Boucetta introduced the notion of pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra in [2] when he studied the line Poisson structure on the dual of a Lie algebra. In this paper, we redefine pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebra, which, in essence, is a class of new Lie admissible algebras and prove that all pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras are solvable. Using our main result and method, we prove some of M. Boucetta's results in [2, 3] in a simple and new way, then we give an explicit construction of Riemann-Lie algebras and a classification of pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebras of dimension 2 and 3. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0807.0936v1
