AbstractWe introduce a class of first order G-structures, each of which has an underlying almost conformally symplectic structure. There is one such structure for each real simple Lie algebra which is not of type {C_{n}} and admits a contact grading. We show that a structure of each of these types on a smooth manifold M determines a canonical compatible linear connection on the tangent bundle {\mathrm{TM}}. This connection is characterized by a normalization condition on its torsion. The algebraic background for this result is proved using Kostant’s theorem on Lie algebra cohomology. For each type, we give an explicit description of both the geometric structure and the normalization condition. In particular, the torsion of the canonical connection naturally splits into two components, one of which is exactly the obstruction to the underlying structure being conformally symplectic. This article is the first in a series aiming at a construction of differential complexes naturally associated to these geometric structures.

Let [Formula: see text] be a short exact sequence of Lie algebras over a field [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is abelian. We show that the obstruction for a pair of automorphisms in [Formula: see text] to be induced by an automorphism in [Formula: see text] lies in the Lie algebra cohomology [Formula: see text]. As a consequence, we obtain a four term exact sequence relating automorphisms, derivations and cohomology of Lie algebras. We also obtain a more explicit necessary and sufficient condition for a pair of automorphisms in [Formula: see text] to be induced by an automorphism in [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a free nilpotent Lie algebra of rank [Formula: see text] and step [Formula: see text].

We introduce quasi-Poisson cohomology groups for a Poisson algebra, which can be computed by its quasi-Poisson complex. Moreover, there exists a Grothendieck spectral sequence relating quasi-Poisson cohomology to Hochschild cohomology and Lie algebra cohomology.

Given a nilpotent Lie algebra 𝔫 we construct a spectral sequence which is derived from a filtration of its Chevalley–Eilenberg differential complex and converges to the Lie algebra cohomology of 𝔫. The limit of this spectral sequence gives a grading for the Lie algebra cohomology, except for the cohomology groups of degree 0, 1, dim 𝔫 - 1 and dim 𝔫 as we shall prove. We describe the spectral sequence associated to a nilpotent Lie algebra which is a direct sum of two ideals, one of them of dimension one, in terms of the spectral sequence of the co-dimension one ideal. Also, we compute the spectral sequence corresponding to each real nilpotent Lie algebra of dimension less than or equal to six.
