Abstract

For a free presentation 0 → τ → f → g → 0 of a Leibniz algebra g, the Baer invariant MLie(g) = τ∩[f;f]Lie/[f;τ]Lie is called the Schur multiplier of g relative to the Liezation functor or Schur Lie-multiplier. For a two-sided ideal n of a Leibniz algebra g, we construct a four-term exact sequence relating the Schur Lie-multipliers of g and g/n, which is applied to study and characterize Lie-nilpotency, Lie-stem covers and Lie-capability of Leibniz algebras.
