Abstract
In this paper, we first introduce the notion of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems associated to a representation and a 3-cocycle. Then, we develop a cohomology of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems. As applications, we use the first cohomology group to classify linear deformations and we study the obstruction class of an extendable order n deformation. Finally, we introduce and investigate Hom-NS-Lie triple system as the underlying structure of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems.

1. Introduction
Lie triple systems first appeared in Cartan’s work [1] on Riemannian geometry. Since then, Jacobson [2,3] has studied Lie triple systems from Jordan theory and quantum mechanics. Lie triple systems extend the classical theory of Lie algebras and Lie groups by introducing a trilinear product, capturing the interplay between three elements. Lie triple systems have found applications in diverse fields, such as quantum mechanics, differential geometry and numerical analysis of differential equations. As a Hom-type algebra [4] generalization of Lie triple systems, Hom-Lie triple systems were introduced by Yau in [5]. Furthermore, Ma et al. [6] established the cohomology, central extensions and deformations of Hom-Lie triple systems. Further research on Hom-Lie triple systems has been developed (see [7,8,9,10,11] and references cited therein).
The notion of Rota–Baxter operators on associative algebras was introduced by Baxter [12] in his study of the fluctuation theory. Subsequently, the notion of a relative Rota–Baxter operator (also called an -operator) on a Lie algebra was independently introduced by Kupershmidt [13], to better understand the classical Yang–Baxter equation and related integrable systems. Recently, relative Rota–Baxter operators have been widely studied (see [14,15,16,17,18,19]). In addition, other operators related to (relative) Rota–Baxter operators are constantly emerging. Among them is the Reynolds operator, motivated by the work of Reynolds [20] on turbulence in fluid dynamics. Kampé de Fériet [21] created the notion of the Reynolds operator as a mathematical subject in general. Inspired by the twisted Poisson structure, Uchino [22] introduced generalized Reynolds operators on associative algebras, also known as twisted Rota–Baxter operators, and studied their relationship with NS-algebras.
In recent years, Das [23] introduced the cohomology of generalized Reynolds operators on associative algebras, and considered NS-algebras as the underlying structure motivated by Uchino’s work. Das also developed the notions of generalized Reynolds operators on Lie algebras and NS-Lie algebras in [24]. Generalized Reynolds operators on other algebraic structures have also been widely studied, including 3-Lie algebras [25,26], 3-Hom-Lie algebras [27], Hom-Lie algebras [28], Lie-Yamaguti algebras [29], Lie triple systems [29,30] and Lie supertriple systems [31].
Inspired by these works, we propose generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems, we investigate the corresponding cohomology theory, which will be used to describe deformations, and we establish Hom-NS-Lie triple systems as the underlying structure in the present paper.
The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we recall some basic notions and facts about Hom-Lie triple systems. In Section 3, we introduce the notion of generalized Reynolds operators on a Lie triple system and we give some examples. In Section 4, we develop the cohomology of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems. In Section 5, we study linear deformations and higher-order deformations of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems via the cohomology theory. In Section 6, we introduce the notion of Hom-NS-Lie triple systems, which is the underlying algebraic structure of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems.

7. Conclusions
In the current research, we introduce the concept of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems, and give some examples. Subsequently, we construct the cohomology of generalized Reynolds operators on Hom-Lie triple systems. Furthermore, we show that any linear deformation of a generalized Reynolds operator is classified by the first cohomology group. Also, we prove that an order n deformation of a generalized Reynolds operator is extendable if and only if this cohomology class in the third cohomology group vanishes. Finally, we introduce a new algebraic structure, in connection with generalized Reynolds operators on a Hom-Lie triple system, called Hom-NS-Lie triple system.
