Abstract

:
In this paper, we introduce two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras and give characterizations of some particular classes of such two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras. Furthermore, we discuss the classification of the non-Abelian extensions in terms of non-Abelian cohomology groups. Finally, we explore the inducibility of pairs of automorphisms and derive the analog Wells exact sequences under the circumstance of differential Leibniz conformal algebras.

1. Introduction

Kac in [1] has proposed Lie conformal algebras, usually considered as an axiomatic description of the singular part of the operator product expansion of chiral fields in conformal field theory. The past few years have witnessed considerable scholarly attention to this algebraic structure in the past few years because they are closely related to vertex algebras [2]. Many more properties and structures of Lie conformal algebras have been developed; see [3,4,5,6,7] and references cited therein.
Leibniz conformal algebras were introduced in [8], which are closely related to field algebras [9] and vertex algebras. Later, the author further elaborated upon and elucidated the concept of a conformal representation of a Leibniz algebra in [10]. After that, Zhang introduced the cohomology of Leibniz conformal algebras in [11] and Wu articulated the notion of a Leibniz pseudoalgebra, which is a multivariable generalization of the concept of Leibniz conformal algebras in [12]. Recently, Feng and Chen studied O -operators, also known as relative Rota–Baxter operators on Leibniz conformal algebras with respect to representations in [13]. Subsequently, the first author and Wang investigated some properties of relative Rota–Baxter operators on Leibniz conformal algebras with respect to representations and their connections with Leibniz dendriform conformal algebras in [14]. For further details on Leibniz conformal algebras, see [15,16]. Recently, the authors [17] introduced L e i b -conformal algebras where the Leibniz conformal identity holds up to homotopy. Additionally, they presented equivalent descriptions of L e i b -conformal algebras and identified certain characteristics of some particular classes of L e i b -conformal algebras in terms of the cohomology of Leibniz conformal algebras and crossed modules of Leibniz conformal algebras as a generalization of [18]. This study would introduce two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra and generalize the common characteristics of some particular classes of such homotopy differential Leibniz conformal algebras, which constitute the major academic focus of this paper.
The extension problem has persisted and incurred scholarly dispute. Non-Abelian extensions were first developed in [19], which induces cohomology to the low dimensional non-Abelian group. The authors examined non-Abelian extensions of Leibniz algebras in [20]. See [21] and references cited therein. Naturally, we look into non-Abelian extensions of a differential Leibniz conformal algebra by another differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Another interesting study linked to extensions of algebraic structures is given by the inducibility of a pair of automorphisms, which, after all, is intimately connected with extensions of algebras. Such a study was first initiated by Wells in extensions of abstract groups in [22]. Later, the authors investigated extending automorphism in [23]. In [24], the authors studied the inducibility of a pair of automorphisms about a non-Abelian extension of Lie algebras. The results of [20,24] have been extended to Rota–Baxter Leibniz algebras in [25]. Naturally, we study the inducibility of a pair of differential Leibniz conformal algebra automorphisms and characterize them by equivalent conditions. This forms the second research focus of this paper.
The paper is organized as follows. In Section 2, we recall some basic definitions of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. In Section 3, we introduce homotopy differential operators on two-term L e i b -conformal algebras. A two-term L e i b -conformal algebra equipped with a homotopy differential operators is called a two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra, and we give characterizations of some particular classes of such two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras. In Section 4, we introduce non-Abelian cohomology groups and classify the non-Abelian extensions in terms of non-Abelian cohomology groups. In Section 5, we explore the inducibility of pairs of automorphisms and derive the analog Wells exact sequences under the circumstance of differential Leibniz conformal algebras.

2. Preliminaries

Throughout the paper, all algebraic systems are supposed to be over a field C . We denote by Z the set of all integers and Z + the set of all nonnegative integers. We now recall some useful definitions in [8,11,26].
Definition 1. 
A Leibniz conformal algebra is a C [ ] -module R endowed with a λ-bracket [ · λ · ] R , which defines a C -bilinear map from R R to R [ λ ] = C [ λ ] R such that the following axioms hold:
[ x λ y ] R = λ [ x λ y ] R , [ x λ y ] R = ( + λ ) [ x λ y ] R , ( conformal sesquilinearity ) [ x λ [ y μ z ] R ] R = [ [ x λ y ] R λ + μ z ] R + [ y μ [ x λ z ] R ] R , ( Jacobi identity )
for any x , y , z R .
Definition 2. 
A representation of a Leibniz conformal algebra R is a C [ ] -module R endowed with left and right λ-actions, which are two C -linear maps
· λ : R V V [ λ ] , λ · : V R V [ λ ]
that satisfy the following conditions:
( x ) λ u = λ x λ u , x λ ( u ) = ( + λ ) x λ u , ( u ) λ x = λ u λ x , u λ ( x ) = ( + λ ) u λ x , u λ [ x μ y ] = ( u λ x ) λ + μ y + x μ ( u λ y ) , x μ ( u λ y ) = ( x μ u ) λ + μ y + u λ [ x μ y ] R , x λ ( y μ u ) = [ x λ y ] R λ + μ u + y μ ( x λ u ) ,
for any x , y R and u V .
It follows that any Leibniz conformal algebra R is a representation of itself with
x · λ y = ( L x ) λ ( y ) = [ x λ y ] R and y · λ x = ( R x ) λ ( y ) = [ y λ x ] , for x , y R .
Here, L x and R x denote the left and right λ -bracket on R by x, respectively. This is called the regular representation.
Let R be a Leibniz conformal algebra and V a representation of R. For n 1 , an n- λ -bracket on R with coefficients in V is a C -linear map f λ 1 , , λ n 1 : R n V [ λ 1 , . . . , λ n 1 ] denoted by
x 1 x n f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x n ) ,
satisfying the following sesquilinearity conditions:
f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x i , x n ) = λ i f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x n ) , 1 i < n , f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x n ) = ( λ 1 + + λ n 1 + ) f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x n ) .
Let C LeibC 0 = V / V . For n 1 , let C LeibC n = C LeibC n ( R , V ) be the space of all n- λ -brackets on R with coefficients in V. Define C LeibC * = n N C LeibC n as the space of all poly λ -brackets.
For n 1 , f C LeibC n , define
( LeibC f ) λ 1 , , λ n ( x 1 , , x n + 1 ) = i = 1 n ( 1 ) i + 1 a i λ i f λ 1 , , λ n ( x 1 , , x n + 1 ) + ( 1 ) n + 1 f λ 1 , , λ n 1 ( x 1 , , x n ) λ 1 + + λ n x n + 1 + 1 i < j n + 1 ( 1 ) i f λ 1 , , λ i + λ j , , λ n ( x 1 , , [ x i λ i x j ] R , , x n + 1 ) .
The cohomology of this complex denoted by H LeibC * ( R , V ) is called the cohomology of the Leibniz conformal algebra R with coefficients in a representation V.
Let R be a Leibniz conformal algebra. Recall that a C [ ] -linear map d R : R R is called a differential operator such that
d R ( [ x λ y ] ) = [ d R ( x ) λ y ] + [ x λ d R ( y ) ] + α [ d R ( x ) λ d R ( y ) ] , x , y R .
One denotes by Der ( R ) the set of differential operators of the Leibniz conformal algebra R.
Definition 3. 
A differential Leibniz conformal algebra is a Leibniz conformal algebra R with a differential operator d R Der ( R ) . One denotes it by ( R , d R ) .
Definition 4. 
Given two differential Leibniz conformal algebras ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) , a homomorphism of differential Leibniz conformal algebras from ( R , d R ) to ( Q , d Q ) is a Leibniz conformal algebra homomorphism φ : R Q such that φ d R = d Q φ .
Definition 5. 
Let ( R , d R ) be a differential Leibniz conformal algebra.
(i)
A representation over the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R , d R ) is a pair ( V , d V ) , where d V Cend ( V ) , and V is a representation over the Leibniz conformal algebra R, such that for all x R , u V , the following equalities hold:
d V ( x · λ u ) = d R ( x ) · λ u + x · λ d V ( u ) + α d R ( x ) · λ d V ( u ) , d V ( u · λ x ) = u · λ d R ( x ) + d V ( u ) · λ x + α d V ( u ) · λ d R ( x ) .
(ii)
Given two representations ( U , d U ) , ( V , d V ) over ( R , d R ) , a conformal linear map f : U V is called a homomorphism of representations, if f d U = d V f and
f ( x · λ u ) = x · λ f ( u ) , f ( u · λ x ) = f ( u ) · λ x , x R , u V .
Define the set of n-cochains by
C DLeibC n ( R , V ) : = C LeibC n ( R , V ) C LeibC n 1 ( R , V ) , n 2 , C LeibC 1 ( R , V ) = Hom ( R , V ) , n = 1 , C LeibC 0 ( R , V ) = V , n = 0 .
For n 1 , we define a linear map δ : C LeibC n ( R , V ) C LeibC n ( R , V ) by
δ f λ 1 , , λ n ( x 1 , , x n ) : = k = 1 n α k 1 1 i 1 < < i k n f λ 1 , , λ n ( x 1 , , d R ( x i 1 ) , , d R ( x i k ) , , x n ) d V f λ 1 , , λ n ( x 1 , , x n ) ,
for any f C LeibC n ( R , V ) and
δ v = d V ( v ) , v C LeibC 0 ( R , V ) = V / V .
Define DLeibC : C LeibC 1 ( R , V ) C LeibC 2 ( R , V ) by
DLeibC ( f ) = ( LieC ( f ) , δ f ) , f Hom ( R , V ) .
Then, for n 2 , we define DLeibC : C LeibC n ( R , V ) C LeibC n + 1 ( R , V ) by
DLeibC ( f n , g n 1 ) = ( LeibC ( f n ) , LeibC ( g n 1 ) + ( 1 ) n δ f n ) ,
for any f n C LeibC n ( R , V ) and g n 1 C LeibC n 1 ( R , V ) . The cohomology of the cochain complex ( C DLeibC * ( R , V ) , DLeibC ) , denoted by H DLeibC * ( R , V ) , is called the cohomology of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R , d R ) with coefficients in the representation ( V , d V ) .

3. Crossed Modules and Two-Term Differential Leib -Conformal Algebras

In this section, we introduce homotopy differential operators on two-term L e i b -conformal algebras. A two-term L e i b -conformal algebra equipped with a homotopy differential operator is called a two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra. We show that skeletal two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras correspond to the third cocycles of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Next, we introduce crossed modules of differential Leibniz conformal algebras and show that crossed modules of differential Leibniz conformal algebras correspond to strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras.
Definition 6 
([17]). A two-term L e i b -conformal algebra is a triple ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 ) consisting of a complex R 1 π R 0 of C [ ] -modules equipped with
  • a C -linear conformal sesquilinear map ρ 2 : R i R j R i + j [ λ ] , for 0 i , j , i + j 1 ,
  • a C -linear conformal sesquilinear map ρ 3 : R 0 R 0 R 0 R 1 [ λ , μ ]
that satisfy the following set of identities: for all x , y , z , w R 0 and u , v R 1 ,
( L e i b 1 ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , v ) = 0 , ( L e i b 2 ) π ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , π u ) , ( L e i b 3 ) π ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( π u , x ) , ( L e i b 4 ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( π u , v ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , π v ) , ( L e i b 5 ) π ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , z ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , z ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , z ) ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , z ) ) , ( L e i b 6 ) ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , π v ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , v ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , v ) ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , v ) ) , ( L e i b 7 ) ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , π v , y ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( v , y ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , v ) , y ) ( ρ 2 ) μ ( v , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) ) , ( L e i b 8 ) ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( π v , x , y ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( v , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( x , y ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( v , x ) , y ) ( ρ 2 ) μ ( x , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( v , y ) ) , ( L e i b 9 ) ( ρ 2 ) λ x , ( ρ 3 ) μ , ν ( y , z , w ) ( ρ 2 ) μ y , ( ρ 3 ) λ , ν ( x , z , w ) + ( ρ 2 ) ν z , ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , w ) + ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ + ν ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , z ) , w ( ρ 3 ) λ + μ , ν ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , z , w ( ρ 3 ) μ , λ + ν y , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , z ) , w ( ρ 3 ) μ , ν y , z , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , w ) + ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ + ν x , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , z ) , w + ( ρ 3 ) λ , ν x , z , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , w ) ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ x , y , ( ρ 2 ) ν ( z , w ) = 0 .
Definition 7. 
Let R = ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 ) be a two-term L e i b -conformal algebra. A triple d = ( d 0 , d 1 , d 2 ) , where d 0 : R 0 R 0 and d 1 : R 1 R 1 are conformal linear maps and d 2 : 2 R 0 R 1 [ λ ] is a conformal bilinear map, is called a homotopy differential operator on R , i f π d 1 = d 0 π , and for all x , y , z R 0 and u R 1 ,
( D 1 ) π ( ( d 2 ) λ ( x , y ) ) = d 0 ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 0 ( x ) , y ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , d 0 ( y ) ) α ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 0 ( x ) , d 0 ( y ) ) , ( D 2 ) ( d 2 ) λ ( x , π u ) = d 1 ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 0 ( x ) , u ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , d 1 ( u ) ) α ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 0 ( x ) , d 1 ( u ) ) , ( D 3 ) ( d 2 ) λ ( π u , x ) = d 1 ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , d 0 ( x ) ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 1 ( u ) , x ) α ( ρ 2 ) λ ( d 1 ( u ) , d 0 ( x ) ) , ( D 4 ) ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( d 0 ( x ) , y , z ) + α ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , d 0 ( y ) , z ) + α 2 ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , d 0 ( z ) ) d 1 ( ρ 3 ) λ , μ ( x , y , z ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ + μ ( ( d 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , z ) ( ρ 2 ) λ + ν ( ( d 2 ) λ ( x , z ) , y ) ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , ( d 2 ) μ ( y , z ) ) + ( d 2 ) λ + μ ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , z ) ( d 2 ) λ + ν ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , z ) , y ) ( d 2 ) λ ( x , ( ρ 2 ) μ ( y , z ) ) .
A two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra is a two-term L e i b -conformal algebra R = ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 ) equipped with a homotopy differential operator d = ( d 0 , d 1 , d 2 ) . We denote a two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra by ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 , d 0 , d 1 , d 2 ) or simply by ( R , d ) .
Definition 8. 
Let ( R , d ) be a two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra. It is said to be
(i) 
Skeletal if π = 0 ,
(ii) 
Strict if ρ 3 = 0 and d 2 = 0 .
Theorem 1. 
There is a one-to-one correspondence between skeletal two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras and triples of the form ( R T , V S , ( f , θ ) ) , where ( R , d R ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra, ( V , d V ) is a representation and ( f , θ ) C DLeibC 3 ( R , V ) is a 3-cocycle.
Proof. 
Let ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 , d 0 , d 1 , d 2 ) be a skeletal two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra. Then, according to (Leib5) and (D1), we obtain ( R 0 , ρ 2 ) and operator d 0 is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra. On the other hand, by conditions (Leib6), (Leib7), (Leib8), (D2) and (D3), we obtain that ( R 1 , d 1 ) is a representation of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R 0 , d 0 ) with the left and right λ -actions
· λ : R 0 R 1 R 1 [ λ ] , x · λ u = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) , λ · : R 1 R 0 R 1 [ λ ] , u · λ x = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) , x R 0 , u R 1 .
The conditions (Leib9) and (D4) are, respectively, equivalent to
δ DLeibC 3 ( ρ 3 , d 2 ) = ( LeibC ( ρ 3 ) , LeibC ( d 2 ) δ ρ 3 ) = 0 .
Thus, ( ρ 3 , d 2 ) C DLeibC 3 ( R , V ) is a 3-cocycle.
Conversely, given a triple ( ( R , d R ) , ( V , d V ) , ( ρ 3 , d 2 ) ) as in the statement, define conformal bilinear maps ρ 2 by
l λ 2 ( x , y ) = [ x λ y ] R , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) = x · λ u , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) = u · λ x ,
for x , y R , u V . Then, ( V 0 R , ρ 2 , f , d R , d V , d 2 ) is a skeletal two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra.  □
Next, we introduce crossed modules of differential Leibniz-conformal algebras and characterize strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras.
Definition 9. 
A crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras consists of ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 1 , d 1 ) , π , ρ L , ρ R ) , where ( R 0 , d 0 ) and ( R 1 , d 1 ) are differential Leibniz conformal algebras, π : ( R 1 , d 1 ) ( R 0 , d 0 ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra homomorphism, and ρ L : R 0 R 1 R 1 [ λ ] , ρ R : R 1 R 0 R 1 [ λ ] , and make ( R 1 , d 1 ) into a representation of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R 0 , d 0 ) satisfying
( C a ) π ( ρ L ( x ) λ ( u ) ) = [ x λ π ( u ) ] R 0 , π ( ρ R ( x ) λ ( u ) ) = [ π ( u ) λ x ] R 0 , ( C b ) ρ L ( π ( u ) ) λ ( v ) = [ u λ v ] R 1 , ρ R ( π ( u ) ) λ ( v ) = [ v λ u ] R 1 ,
for any x R 0 , u , v R 1 .
Proposition 1. 
Let ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 1 , d 1 ) , π , ρ L , ρ R ) be a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Then, ( R 0 R 1 , d 0 d 1 ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra, where the bracket is
[ ( x , u ) λ ( y , v ) ] = ( [ x λ y ] R 0 , ρ L ( x ) λ v + ρ R ( y ) λ u + [ u λ v ] R 1 )
for any x , y R 0 , u , v R 1 .
Proof. 
Since R 0 , R 1 are both Leibniz conformal algebras and ( R 1 , ρ L , ρ R ) is a representation of R 0 , then we have that R 0 R 1 is a Leibniz conformal algebra. Moreover, for any ( x , u ) , ( y , v ) R 0 R 1 , we have
( d 0 d 1 ) [ ( x , u ) λ ( y , v ) ] = ( d 0 d 1 ) ( [ x λ y ] R 0 , ρ L ( x ) λ v + ρ R ( y ) λ u + [ u λ v ] R 1 ) = ( d 0 ( [ x λ y ] R 0 ) , d 1 ( ρ L ( x ) λ v ) + d 1 ( ρ R ( y ) λ u ) + d 1 ( [ u λ v ] R 1 ) ) = ( [ d 0 ( x ) λ y ] R 0 + [ x λ d 0 ( y ) ] R 0 + α [ d 0 ( x ) λ d 0 ( y ) ] R 0 , ρ L ( x ) λ d 1 ( v ) + ρ L ( d 0 ( x ) ) λ v + α ρ L ( d 0 ( x ) ) λ d 1 ( v ) + ρ R ( y ) λ d 1 ( u ) + ρ R ( d 0 ( y ) ) λ u + α ρ R ( d 0 ( y ) ) λ d 1 ( u ) + [ d 1 ( u ) λ v ] R 1 + [ u λ d 1 ( v ) ] R 1 + α [ d 1 ( u ) λ d 1 ( v ) ] R 1 ) = [ ( d 0 d 1 ) ( x , u ) λ ( y , v ) ] + [ ( x , u ) λ ( d 0 d 1 ) ( y , v ) ] + α [ ( d 0 d 1 ) ( x , u ) λ ( d 0 d 1 ) ( y , v ) ] .
This shows that the map d 0 d 1 : R 0 R 1 R 0 R 1 is a differential operator. And the proof is finished.  □
Theorem 2. 
There is a one-to-one correspondence between strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebras and crossed modules of differential Leibniz conformal algebras.
Proof. 
Let ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , l 3 = 0 , d 0 , d 1 , d 2 = 0 ) be a strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra. Then, according to (Leib5) and (D1), we obtain ( R 0 , ρ 2 ) , and operator d 0 is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra. Next, we define [ · λ · ] R 1 : R 1 R 1 R 1 [ λ ] by [ u λ v ] R 1 = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( π u , v ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , π v ) , for any u , v R 1 . By conditions (Leib6) and (D3), we obtain that ( R 1 , d 1 ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra. On the other hand, the condition (Leib2) implies that π : ( R 1 , d 1 ) ( R 0 , d 0 ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra morphism. Finally, we define
ρ L : R 0 R 1 R 1 [ λ ] , ρ L ( x ) λ u = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) , ρ R : R 1 R 0 R 1 [ λ ] , ρ R ( x ) λ u = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) , R 0 , u R 1 .
Then, we obtain that ( ( R 1 , d 1 ) , ρ L , ρ R ) is a representation of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R 0 , d 0 ) ; by the conditions (Leib9) and (D4), we also have
π ( ρ L ( x ) λ u ) = π ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , π u ) , π ( ρ R ( x ) λ u ) = π ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) = ( ρ 2 ) λ ( π u , x ) , ρ L ( π u ) λ v = π ( ρ 2 ) λ ( π u , v ) = [ u λ v ] R 1 , ρ R ( π u ) λ v = π ( ρ 2 ) λ ( v , π u ) = [ v λ u ] R 1 ,
for any x R 0 , u , v R 1 . Thus, ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 1 , d 1 ) , π , ρ L , ρ R ) is a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras.
Conversely, let ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 1 , d 1 ) , π , ρ L , ρ R ) be a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Define conformal bilinear maps ρ 2 : R i × R j R i + j [ λ ] , i + j 1 by
( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) = [ x λ y ] R 0 , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , u ) = ρ L ( x ) λ u , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , x ) = ρ R ( x ) λ u , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , v ) = 0 ,
for x , y R 0 , u , v R 1 . Hence, ( R 1 π R 0 , ρ 2 , ρ 3 = 0 , d 0 , d 1 , d 2 = 0 ) is a strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra.  □
Combining Proposition 1 and Theorem 2, we obtain the following result.
Proposition 2. 
Let ( R , d ) be a strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra. Then, ( R 0 R 1 , d 0 d 1 ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra, where the bracket is
[ ( x , u ) λ ( y , v ) ] = ( ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , y ) , ( ρ 2 ) λ ( x , v ) + ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , y ) + ( ρ 2 ) λ ( u , v ) ) ,
for any ( x , u ) , ( y , v ) R 0 R 1 .
Example 1. 
Let ( R 0 , d 0 ) be a differential Leibniz conformal algebra. Then, ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 0 , d 0 ) , id , L x , R x ) is a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Therefore, it follows that
( R 0 id R 0 , [ · , · ] R 0 , ρ 3 = 0 , d 0 , d 0 , d 2 = 0 )
is a strict two-term differential L e i b -conformal algebra.
Example 2. 
Let ( R 0 , d 0 ) and ( R 1 , d 1 ) be a differential Leibniz conformal algebras, let f : ( R 0 , d 0 ) ( R 1 , d 1 ) be a differential Leibniz conformal algebra morphism and let i : R 1 R 0 be the inclusion map. Then, ( Ker f , R 0 , i , L x , R x ) is a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras.

4. Non-Abelian Extension of Differential Leibniz Conformal Algebras

In this section, we study non-Abelian extensions of a differential Leibniz conformal algebra by another differential Leibniz conformal algebra.
Definition 10. 
Let ( R , d R ) and ( Q , d Q ) be two differential Leibniz conformal algebras. A non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( E , d E ) equipped with a short exact sequence of differential Leibniz conformal algebras
0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 .
Definition 11. 
Let ( E , d E ) and ( E , d E ) be two non-Abelian extensions of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . They are said to be equivalent if there is a morphism τ : ( E , d E ) ( E , d E ) of differential Leibniz conformal algebras making the following diagram commutative:
0 ( Q , d Q ) i 1 ( E , d E ) p 1 ( R , d R ) 0 id τ id 0 ( Q , d Q ) i 2 ( E , d E ) p 2 ( R , d R ) 0 .
The set of all equivalence classes of non-Abelian extensions of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) is denoted by Ext nab ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
Example 3. 
Let ( ( R 0 , d 0 ) , ( R 1 , d 1 ) , π , ρ L , ρ R ) be a crossed module of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Then, the exact sequence
0 ( R 1 , d 1 ) i ( R 0 R 1 , d 0 d 1 ) p ( R 0 , d 0 ) 0 ,
is a non-Abelian extension of ( R 0 , d R 0 ) by ( R 1 , d R 1 ) .
We denote the set of equivalence classes of non-Abelian 2-cocycles by H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
Let ( E , d E ) be a non-Abelian extension of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) as of (2). A section of p is a linear map s : R E that satisfies p s = id R . We define conformal maps ω : 2 R Q [ λ ] , · λ : R Q Q [ λ ] , λ · : Q R Q [ λ ] and Ω : R Q by
ω λ ( x , y ) = [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E s ( [ x λ y ] R ) , x · λ p = [ s ( x ) λ p ] E , p · λ x = [ p λ s ( x ) ] E , Ω ( x ) : = d E ( s ( x ) ) s ( d R ( x ) ) , x , y R , p Q .
Further, we define R Q by the bracket
[ ( x , p ) λ ( y , q ) ] : = ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + p · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q ) ,
with the conformal linear map
d Ω ( x , p ) = ( d R ( x ) , d Q ( p ) + Ω ( x ) ) .
Lemma 1. 
With the above notations, R Q is a Leibniz conformal algebra if and only if ω , · λ , λ · satisfy the following conditions:
[ x λ y ] R · λ + μ p = x · λ ( y · μ p ) y · μ ( x · λ p ) [ ω λ ( x , y ) λ + μ p ] Q ,
p · μ [ x λ y ] R = x · λ ( p · μ y ) ( x · λ p ) · λ + μ y [ p μ ω λ ( x , y ) ] Q ,
p · μ [ x λ y ] R = ( p · μ x ) · λ + μ y + x · λ ( p · μ y ) [ p μ ω λ ( x , y ) ] Q ,
x · λ [ p μ q ] Q = [ ( x · λ p ) λ + μ q ] Q + [ p μ ( x · λ q ) ] Q ,
x · λ [ p μ q ] Q = [ p μ ( x · λ q ) ] Q [ ( p · μ x ) λ + μ q ] Q ,
[ p λ q ] Q · λ + μ x = [ p λ ( q · μ x ) ] Q [ q μ ( p · λ x ) ] Q ,
x · λ ω μ ( y , z ) y · μ ω λ ( x , z ) ω λ ( x , y ) · ν z = ω λ + μ ( [ x λ y ] R , z ) ω λ ( x , [ y μ z ] R ) + ω μ ( y , [ x λ z ] R ) .
Proof. 
For any x , y , z R , p , q Q , we have
[ ( x + p ) λ ( y + q ) ] = [ ( x + p ) λ ( y + q ) ] = ( [ x λ y ] R , ( x · λ q ) + ( p · λ y ) + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q ) = ( λ [ x λ y ] R , λ ( x · λ q ) λ ( p · λ y ) λ ω λ ( x , y ) λ [ p λ q ] Q ) = λ [ ( x + p ) λ ( y + q ) ] .
Similar, we have
[ ( x + p ) λ ( y + q ) ] = ( + λ ) [ ( x + p ) λ ( y + q ) ] .
Further, assume that R Q is a Leibniz conformal algebra. By
[ x λ [ y μ p ] ] = [ [ x λ y ] R λ + μ p ] + [ y μ [ x λ p ] ] ,
we deduce that (4) holds. By
[ x λ [ p μ y ] ] = [ [ x λ p ] λ + μ y ] + [ p μ [ x λ y ] R ] ,
we deduce that (5) holds. Similar to deduce that (6) holds. By
[ x λ [ p μ q ] Q ] = [ [ x λ p ] λ + μ q ] + [ p μ [ x λ q ] ] ,
we deduce that (7) holds. Similarly, we deduce that (8)–(9) hold. By
[ x λ [ y μ z ] R ] R = [ [ x λ y ] R λ + μ z ] R + [ y μ [ x λ z ] R ] R ,
we deduce that (10) holds.
Conversely, if (4)–(10) hold, it is straightforward to see that R Q is a Leibniz conformal algebra. The proof is finished.  □
Lemma 2. 
The maps ω , · λ , λ · , Ω defined above satisfy the following compatible conditions: for all x , y R and p Q ,
d Q ω λ ( x , y ) + Ω ( [ x λ y ] R ) = Ω ( x ) · λ y + ω λ ( d R ( x ) , y ) + x · λ Ω ( y ) + ω λ ( x , d R ( y ) )
+ α d R ( x ) · λ Ω ( y ) + α Ω ( x ) · λ d R ( y ) + α ω λ ( d R ( x ) , d R ( y ) ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ Ω ( y ) ] E ,
[ Ω ( x ) λ p ] E + α d R ( x ) · λ d Q ( p ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E d Q ( x · λ p ) + d R ( x ) · λ p + x · λ d Q ( p ) = 0 ,
[ p λ Ω ( x ) ] E + α d Q ( p ) · λ d R ( x ) + α [ d Q ( p ) λ Ω ( x ) ] E d Q ( p · λ x ) + d Q ( p ) · λ x + p · λ d R ( x ) = 0 .
Proof. 
For any x , y R , we have
Ω ( x ) · λ y + ω λ ( d R ( x ) , y ) + x · λ Ω ( y ) + ω λ ( x , d R ( y ) ) d Q ω λ ( x , y ) Ω ( [ x λ y ] R ) + α d R ( x ) · λ Ω ( y ) + α Ω ( x ) · λ d R ( y ) + α ω λ ( d R ( x ) , d R ( y ) ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ Ω ( y ) ] E = [ d E ( s ( x ) ) λ s ( y ) ] E 2 A [ s ( d R ( x ) ) λ s ( y ) ] E 1 D + [ s ( d R ( x ) ) λ s ( y ) ] E 1 D s ( [ d R ( x ) λ y ] R ) 2 B + [ s ( x ) λ d E ( s ( y ) ) ] E 2 A [ s ( x ) λ s ( d R ( y ) ) ] E 1 C + [ s ( x ) λ s ( d R ( y ) ) ] E 1 C s ( [ x λ d R ( y ) ] R ) 2 B d Q [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E 2 A + d Q s ( [ x λ y ] R ) 1 B

and we deduce that (11) holds. Further, for any x R and p Q , we have
[ Ω ( x ) λ p ] E + α d R ( x ) · λ d Q ( p ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E d Q ( x · λ p ) + d R ( x ) · λ p + x · λ d Q ( p ) = [ d E ( s ( x ) ) λ p ] E [ s d R ( ( x ) ) λ p ] E A + α [ s ( d R ( x ) ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E B + α [ d E ( s ( x ) ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E α [ s ( d R ( x ) ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E B d Q [ s ( x ) λ p ] E + [ s ( d R ( x ) ) λ p ] E A + [ s ( x ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E = [ d E ( s ( x ) ) λ p ] E + [ s ( x ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E + α [ d E ( s ( x ) ) λ d Q ( p ) ] E d Q [ s ( x ) λ p ] E = 0 .
This means Equation (12) is satisfied. Similarly, one can check that Equation (13) holds.  □
Definition 12. 
(i) 
Let ( R , d R ) and ( Q , d Q ) be two differential Leibniz conformal algebras. A non-Abelian 2-cocycle of ( R , d R ) with values in ( Q , d Q ) is a quadruple ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) of conformal linear maps ω : 2 R Q [ λ ] , · λ : R Q Q [ λ ] , λ · : Q R Q [ λ ] and Ω : R Q satisfying the conditions (4)–(13).
(ii) 
Let ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) and ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be two non-Abelian 2-cocycles of ( R , d R ) with values in ( Q , d Q ) . They are said to be equivalent if there exists a conformal linear map η : R Q that satisfies
ω λ ( x , y ) ω λ ( x , y ) = x · λ η ( y ) + η ( x ) · λ y η [ x λ y ] R + [ η ( x ) λ η ( y ) ] Q ,
x · λ p x · λ p = [ η ( x ) λ p ] E ,
p · λ x p · λ x = [ p λ η ( x ) ] E ,
Ω ( x ) Ω ( x ) = d Q ( η ( x ) ) η ( d R ( x ) ) , x , y R , p Q .
We denote the set of equivalence classes of non-Abelian 2-cocycles by H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
With the above notations, we obtain the following result.
Theorem 3. 
Let ( R , d R ) and ( Q , d Q ) be two differential Leibniz conformal algebras. Then, the set of equivalence classes of non-Abelian extensions of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) is classified by H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) . In other words,
Ext nab ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
Proof. 
Let ( E , d E ) and ( E , d E ) be two equivalent extensions of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . If s : R E is a section of the map p, then it is easy to observe that the map s : = η s is a section of the map p . Let ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be the non-Abelian 2-cocycle corresponding to the non-Abelian extension ( E , d E ) with section s , for any x , y R , q Q , we have
ω λ ( x , y ) = [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E s [ x λ y ] R = [ η s ( x ) λ η s ( y ) ] E η s [ x λ y ] R = η ( [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E s [ x λ y ] R ) = ω λ ( x , y ) .
Similarly, x · λ q = x · λ q , q · λ x = q · λ x and Ω ( x ) = Ω ( x ) . This shows that ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) = ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) . Hence they give rise to the same element in H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) . Therefore, there is a well-defined map Π : Ext nab ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
Conversely, let ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be a non-Abelian 2-cocycle on ( R , d R ) with values in ( Q , d Q ) . Define E : = R Q with the bracket
[ ( x , p ) λ ( y , q ) ] : = ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + p · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q ) .
and the conformal linear map
d E Ω ( x , p ) = ( d R ( x ) , d Q ( p ) + Ω ( x ) ) .
According to the conditions (4)–(10), it can be easily verified that E is a Leibniz conformal algebra. Moreover, we observe that
d E Ω ( [ ( x , p ) λ ( y , q ) ] ) = d E Ω ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + p · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q ) = ( d R ( [ x λ y ] R ) , d Q ( x · λ q ) + d Q ( p · λ y ) + d Q ( ω λ ( x , y ) ) + d Q ( [ p λ q ] Q ) + Ω ( [ x λ y ] R ) ) = ( [ d R ( x ) λ y ] R + [ x λ d R ( y ) ] R + α [ d R ( x ) λ d R ( y ) ] R , d Q ( x · λ q ) + d Q ( p · λ y ) + Ω ( [ x λ y ] R ) + d Q ( ω λ ( x , y ) ) + [ d Q ( p ) λ q ] Q + [ p λ d Q ( q ) ] Q + α [ d Q ( p ) λ d Q ( q ) ] Q ) = ( [ d R ( x ) λ y ] R A + [ x λ d R ( y ) ] R B + α [ d R ( x ) λ d R ( y ) ] R C , Ω ( x ) · λ y A + ω λ ( d R ( x ) , y ) A + x · λ Ω ( y ) B + ω λ ( x , d R ( y ) ) B + α d R ( x ) · λ Ω ( y ) + α Ω ( x ) · λ d R ( y ) + α ω λ ( d R ( x ) , d R ( y ) ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ Ω ( y ) ] E C + [ Ω ( x ) λ q ] E A + α d R ( x ) · λ d Q ( q ) + α [ Ω ( x ) λ d Q ( q ) ] E C + d R ( x ) · λ q A + x · λ d Q ( q ) B + α d R ( x ) · λ d Q ( q ) C + [ p λ Ω ( y ) ] E B + α d Q ( p ) · λ d R ( y ) + α [ d Q ( p ) λ Ω ( y ) ] E C + d Q ( p ) · λ y A + p · λ d R ( y ) + α d Q ( p ) · λ d R ( y ) C
+ [ d Q ( p ) λ q ] Q A + [ p λ d Q ( q ) ] Q B + α [ d Q ( p ) λ d Q ( q ) ] Q C ) = [ ( d R ( x ) , d Q ( p ) + Ω ( x ) ) λ ( y , q ) ] A + [ ( x , p ) λ ( d R ( y ) , d Q ( q ) + Ω ( y ) ) ] B + α [ ( d R ( x ) , d Q ( p ) + Ω ( x ) ) λ ( d R ( y ) , d Q ( q ) + Ω ( y ) ) ] C = [ d E Ω ( x , p ) λ ( y , q ) ] + [ ( x , p ) λ d E Ω ( y , q ) ] + α [ d E Ω ( x , p ) λ d E Ω ( y , q ) ] .
This shows that d E Ω is a differential operator on the Leibniz conformal algebra E. In other words, ( E , d E Ω ) is a differential Leibniz conformal algebra. Further, it is easy to see that
0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E Ω ) p ( R , d R ) 0
is a non-Abelian extension of the differential Leibniz conformal algebra ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) .
Let ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) and ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be two equivalent 2-cocycles. Thus, there exists a conformal linear map η : R Q such that the identities (14)–(17) hold. Let ( E , d E Ω ) be a differential Leibniz conformal algebra induced by the 2-cocycle ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) . We define a map τ : R Q R Q by τ ( x , p ) = ( x , p + η ( x ) ) for all ( x , p ) R Q . Then, we have
τ ( [ ( x , p ) λ ( y , q ) ] E ) = τ ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + p · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q ) = ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + p · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ p λ q ] Q + η ( [ x λ y ] R ) ) = ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + [ η ( x ) λ q ] E + p · λ y + [ p λ η ( y ) ] E + ω λ ( x , y ) + x · λ η ( y ) + η ( x ) · λ y η [ x λ y ] R + [ η ( x ) λ η ( y ) ] Q + [ p λ q ] Q + η ( [ x λ y ] R ) = ( [ x λ y ] R , x · λ q + x · λ η ( y ) + p · λ y + η ( x ) · λ y + ω λ ( x , y ) + [ ( p + η ( x ) ) λ ( q + η ( y ) ) ] Q = [ ( x , p + η ( x ) ) λ ( y , q + η ( y ) ) ] E = [ τ ( x , p ) λ τ ( y , q ) ] E .
This is similar to checking that τ d E Ω = d E Ω τ . Hence, the map τ : ( E , d E Ω ) ( E , d E Ω ) defines an equivalence between two non-Abelian extensions. Therefore, we obtain a well-defined map Γ : H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) Ext nab ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) . Finally, it is straightforward to verify that the maps Π and Γ are inverse to each to each other. This completes the proof.  □

5. Automorphisms of Differential Leibniz Conformal Algebras and the Wells Map

In this section, we study the inducibility of a pair of differential Leibniz conformal algebra automorphisms and characterize them by equivalent conditions.
Let ( R , d R ) and ( Q , d Q ) be two differential Leibniz conformal algebras, and let
0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 ,
be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . Let Aut Q ( E ) be the set of all differential automorphisms Υ Aut ( E , d E ) that satisfy Υ | Q Q . For any automorphism Υ Aut Q ( E , d E ) , then Υ | Q Aut ( Q , d Q ) . We define a conformal linear map Υ ¯ : R R by
Υ ¯ ( x ) = p Υ s ( x ) , x R .
Assume that s 1 and s 2 are two distinct sections of E, since p s 1 ( x ) p s 2 ( x ) = 0 , s 1 ( x ) s 2 ( x ) Ker p Q , it follows that Υ ( s 1 ( x ) s 2 ( x ) ) Q . Thus, p Υ s 1 ( x ) = p Υ s 2 ( x ) , which indicates that Υ ¯ is independent of the choice of a section.
For all x , y R , we have
Υ ¯ ( [ x λ y ] R ) = p Υ ( s [ x λ y ] R ) = p Υ ( [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E ω ( x , y ) ) = p Υ ( [ s ( x ) λ s ( y ) ] E ) = [ p Υ s ( x ) λ p Υ s ( y ) ] R = [ Υ ¯ ( x ) λ Υ ¯ ( y ) ] R .
Further,
( d R Υ ¯ Υ ¯ d R ) ( x ) = ( d R p Υ s p Υ s d R ) ( x ) = ( p d E Υ s p Υ s d R ) ( x ) = p Υ ( d E s s d R ) ( x ) = 0 ,
which yields that Υ ¯ is a homomorphism of differential Leibni- conformal algebras. It is easy to check that Υ ¯ is bijective. Thus, Υ ¯ Aut ( R , d R ) . Then, we can define a group homomorphism
Λ : Aut Q ( E , d E ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) , Λ ( Υ ) = ( Υ ¯ , Υ | Q ) .
Definition 13. 
A pair ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) is said to be inducible if ( Φ , Ψ ) is an image of Λ.
Below, we investigate when a pair ( Φ , Ψ ) is inducible.
Let 0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) and ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be the corresponding non-Abelian 2-cocycle induced by a section s of E. Given any pair ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) . Define conformal maps ω Φ , Ψ : R × R Q [ λ ] , · λ Φ , Ψ : R Q Q [ λ ] , λ · Φ , Ψ : Q R Q [ λ ] , Ω Φ , Ψ : R Q respectively, by
ω λ Φ , Ψ ( x , y ) = Ψ ω λ ( Φ 1 ( x ) , Φ 1 ( y ) ) ,
x · λ Φ , Ψ q = Ψ ( Φ 1 ( x ) · λ Ψ 1 ( q ) ) ,
q · λ Φ , Ψ x = Ψ ( Ψ 1 ( q ) · λ Φ 1 ( x ) ) ,
Ω Φ , Ψ ( x ) = Ψ Ω ( Φ 1 ( x ) ) ,
for all x , y R , q Q .
Proposition 3. 
With the above notations, ( ω Φ , Ψ , · λ Φ , Ψ , λ · Φ , Ψ , Ω Φ , Ψ ) is a non-Abelian 2-cocycle.
Proof. 
Using (18)–(21), we obtain
x · λ Φ , Ψ ( y · μ Φ , Ψ q ) y · μ Φ , Ψ ( x · λ Φ , Ψ q ) ( [ x λ y ] R ) · λ + μ Φ , Ψ q = Ψ ( Φ 1 ( x ) · λ ( Φ 1 ( y ) μ Ψ 1 q ) ) Ψ ( Φ 1 ( y ) μ ( Φ 1 ( x ) λ Ψ 1 q ) ) Ψ ( [ Φ 1 ( x ) λ Φ 1 ( y ) ] R Ψ 1 ( q ) ) = Ψ Φ 1 ( x ) λ ( Φ 1 ( y ) μ Ψ 1 ( q ) ) Φ 1 ( y ) μ ( Φ 1 ( x ) λ Ψ 1 ( q ) ) [ Φ 1 ( x ) λ Φ 1 ( y ) ] R Ψ 1 ( q ) = Ψ [ ω λ ( Φ 1 ( x ) , Φ 1 ( y ) ) λ + μ Ψ 1 ( q ) ] Q = [ Ψ ω λ Φ 1 ( x ) , Φ 1 ( y ) ) λ + μ q ] Q = [ ω λ Φ , Ψ ( x , y ) λ + μ q ] Q ,
which implies that (5) holds. Similarly, (6)–(13) hold. The proof is finished.  □
Let 0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . Suppose that ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) is the corresponding non-Abelian 2-cocycle induced by a section s. Define a linear map W : A u t ( R , d R ) × A u t ( Q , d Q ) H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) by
W ( Φ , Ψ ) = [ ( ω Φ , Ψ , · λ Φ , Ψ , λ · Φ , Ψ , Ω Φ , Ψ ) ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) ] .
It is remarkable that the map W is not a group homomorphism in general. The map W is also said to be the Wells map.
Theorem 4. 
Let 0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) and let ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) be the corresponding non-Abelian 2-cocycle induced by a section s. A pair ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) is inducible if and only if W ( Φ , Ψ ) = 0 .
Proof. 
Suppose that ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) is inducible; then, there is an automorphism Υ Aut Q ( E , d E ) such that Υ | Q = Ψ and p Υ s = Φ . For all x R , since s is a section of p, that is, p s = id ,
p ( Υ s Φ 1 s ) ( x ) = x x = 0 ,
which implies that ( Υ s Φ 1 s ) ( x ) ker p Q . So we can define a conformal linear map η : R Q by
η ( x ) = ( Υ s Φ 1 s ) ( x ) , x R .
For x R , q Q , we have
x · λ Φ , Ψ q x · λ q = Ψ ( Φ 1 ( x ) · λ Ψ 1 ( q ) ) x · λ q = Ψ ( [ s ( Φ 1 ( x ) ) λ Ψ 1 ( q ) ] E ) [ s ( x ) λ q ] E = [ Υ s ( Φ 1 ( x ) ) λ Υ ( Ψ 1 ( q ) ) ] E [ s ( x ) λ q ] E = [ Υ s ( Φ 1 ( x ) ) λ q ] E [ s ( x ) λ q ] E = [ η ( x ) λ q ] Q .
Hence, we obtain (15). Similarly, by direct calculations, we observe that (14), (16), (17) hold. It follows from the above observation that the non-Abelian 2-cocycles ( ω Φ , Ψ , · λ Φ , Ψ , λ · Φ , Ψ , Ω Φ , Ψ ) and ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) are equivalent via the conformal linear map η : R Q . Hence, we have
W ( Φ , Ψ ) = [ ( ω Φ , Ψ , · λ Φ , Ψ , λ · Φ , Ψ , Ω Φ , Ψ ) ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) ] = 0 .
Conversely, suppose that ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) , Since W ( Φ , Ψ ) = 0 , it follows that the non-Abelian 2-cocycles ( ω Φ , Ψ , · λ Φ , Ψ , λ · Φ , Ψ , Ω Φ , Ψ ) and ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) are equivalent, there is a conformal linear map η : R Q satisfying (14)–(17). Due to s being a section of p, then for all e E can be written as e = q + s ( x ) for some q Q , x R . Define a conformal linear map Υ : E E by
Υ ( e ) = Υ ( q + s ( x ) ) = Ψ ( q ) + η Φ ( x ) + s Φ ( x ) .
If Υ ( e ) = 0 , then s Φ ( x ) = 0 and Ψ ( q ) + η Φ ( x ) = 0 . In view of s and Φ being injective, we obtain x = 0 ; it follows that q = 0 . Thus, e = q + s ( x ) = 0 ; that is, Υ is injective. For any e = q + s ( x ) E ,
Υ ( Ψ 1 ( q ) Ψ 1 η ( x ) + s Φ 1 ( x ) ) = q + s ( x ) = e ,
which yields that Υ is surjective. In all, Υ is bijective.
Next, we show that Υ is a homomorphism of differential Leibniz conformal algebras. In fact, for all e i = q i + s ( x i ) E ( i = 1 , 2 ) ,
[ Υ ( e 1 ) λ Υ ( e 2 ) ] E = [ ( Ψ ( q 1 ) + η Φ ( x 1 ) + s Φ ( x 1 ) ) λ ( Ψ ( q 2 ) + η Φ ( x 2 ) + s Φ ( x 2 ) ) ] E = [ Ψ ( q 1 ) λ Ψ ( q 2 ) ] E + [ Ψ ( q 1 ) λ η Φ ( x 2 ) ] E + [ Ψ ( q 1 ) λ s Φ ( x 2 ) ] E + [ η Φ ( x 1 ) λ Ψ ( q 2 ) ] E + [ η Φ ( x 1 ) λ η Φ ( x 2 ) ] E + [ η Φ ( x 1 ) λ s Φ ( x 2 ) ] E + [ s Φ ( x 1 ) λ Ψ ( q 2 ) ] E + [ s Φ ( x 1 ) λ η Φ ( x 2 ) ] E + [ s Φ ( x 1 ) λ s Φ ( x 2 ) ] E = [ Ψ ( q 1 ) λ Ψ ( q 2 ) ] E + Ψ ( ( q 1 ) · λ x 2 ) Ψ ( q 1 ) · λ Φ ( x 2 ) + Ψ ( q 1 ) · λ Φ ( x 2 ) + Ψ ( ( x 1 ) · λ q 2 ) Φ ( x 1 ) · λ Ψ ( q 2 ) D + Ψ ( ω λ ( x 1 , x 2 ) ) ω λ ( Φ ( x 1 ) , Φ ( x 2 ) ) B Φ ( x 1 ) · λ η Φ ( x 2 ) A η Φ ( x 1 ) · λ Φ ( x 2 ) C + η Φ ( [ ( x 1 ) λ x 2 ] R ) + η Φ ( x 1 ) · λ Φ ( x 2 ) C + Φ ( x 1 ) · λ Ψ ( q 2 ) D + Φ ( x 1 ) · λ η Φ ( x 2 ) A + ω λ ( Φ ( x 1 ) , Φ ( x 2 ) ) B + s [ Φ ( x 1 ) λ Φ ( x 2 ) ] R
= Ψ ( [ q 1 λ q 2 ] E + ( q 1 ) · λ x 2 + ( x 1 ) · λ q 2 + ω λ ( x 1 , x 2 ) ) + η Φ ( [ x 1 λ x 2 ] R ) + s [ Φ ( x 1 ) λ Φ ( x 2 ) ] R = Ψ ( [ q 1 λ q 2 ] E + [ ( q 1 ) λ s ( x 2 ) ] E + [ s ( x 1 ) λ q 2 ] E + ω λ ( x 1 , x 2 ) ) + η Φ ( [ x 1 λ x 2 ] R ) + s Φ [ x 1 λ x 2 ] R = Υ ( [ q 1 λ q 2 ] E + [ q 1 λ s ( x 2 ) ] E + [ s ( x 1 ) λ q 2 ] E + [ s ( x 1 ) λ s ( x 2 ) ] R ) = Υ ( [ ( q 1 + s ( x 1 ) ) λ ( q 2 + s ( x 2 ) ) ] E ) = Υ ( [ e 1 λ e 2 ] E ) .
Similarly, one can check that Υ d E = d E Υ . This proves that Υ is an automorphism of differential Leibniz-conformal algebras. Thus, Υ Aut Q ( E , d E ) . Finally, we show that Υ | Q = Ψ and p Υ s = Φ . In fact,
Υ ( q ) = Υ ( q + s ( 0 ) ) = Ψ ( q ) , q Q
and
( p Υ s ) ( x ) = p Υ ( 0 + s ( x ) ) = p ( χ ( x ) + s Φ ( x ) ) = p s Φ ( x ) = Φ ( x ) , x R .
Therefore, Υ | Q = Ψ and p Υ s = Φ . Thus, ( Φ , Ψ ) Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q , d Q ) is inducible.  □
Theorem 5. 
Let 0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . Then there is an exact sequence
1 Aut Q Q , R ( E , d E ) ι Aut ( E , d E ) Λ Aut ( R , d R ) × Aut ( Q S ) W H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) ,
where Aut Q Q , R ( E , d E ) = { γ Aut ( E , d E ) | Λ ( Υ ) = ( id R , id Q ) } .
Proof. 
Obviously, Ker Λ = Im ι and ι is injective. By Theorem 6.3, one can easily check that Ker W = Im Λ . This completes the proof.  □
More generally, if we define
Aut Q Q ( E , d E ) = { Υ Aut Q ( E , d E ) | Υ | Q = id Q ) } , Aut Q R ( E , d E ) = { γ Aut Q ( E , d E ) | Υ ¯ : = p Υ s = id R } ,
we obtain two morphisms of groups Λ R : Aut Q Q ( E , d E ) Aut ( R , d R ) , Υ Υ ¯ and Λ Q : Aut Q R ( E , d E ) Aut ( Q , d Q ) , Υ Υ | Q . Define the maps W Q : Aut ( Q , d Q ) H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) and W R : Aut ( R , d R ) H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) by
W R ( Φ ) = [ ( ω Φ , id , · λ Φ , id , λ · Φ , id , Ω Φ , id ) ( ω , · λ , λ · , Ω ) ] , W Q ( Ψ ) = [ ( ω id , Ψ , · λ id , Ψ , λ · id , Ψ , Ω id , Ψ ) ( ω , · λ , λ · Ω ) ] .
Proposition 4. 
Let 0 ( Q , d Q ) i ( E , d E ) p ( R , d R ) 0 be a non-Abelian extension of ( R , d R ) by ( Q , d Q ) . Then, there are two exact sequences of groups
1 Aut Q Q , R ( E , d E ) ι Aut Q Q ( E , d E ) Λ R Aut ( R , d R ) W R H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) , 1 Aut Q Q , R ( E , d E ) ι Aut Q R ( E , d E ) Λ Q Aut ( Q , d Q ) W Q H nab 2 ( ( R , d R ) , ( Q , d Q ) ) .
