For arbitrary $3$-Lie algebra $L$, infinite many metric symplectic $3$-Lie algebras are constructed. It is proved that a metric $3$-Lie algebra $(A, B)$ is a metric symplectic $3$-Lie algebra if and only if there exists an invertible derivation $D$ such that $D\\in Der_B(A)$, and is also proved that every metric symplectic $3$-Lie algebra $(\\tilde{A}, \\tilde{B}, \\tilde{\\omega})$ is a $T^*_{\\theta}$-extension of a metric symplectic $3$-Lie algebra $(A, B, \\omega)$. Finally, we construct a metric symplectic double extension of a metric symplectic $3$-Lie algebra by means of a special derivation.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-08-19T02:10:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lie algebra", "symplectic structures", "metric symplectic double extension", "special derivation", "invertible derivation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 1311884, "adsabs": "2014arXiv1408.4763B" } } }
