Abstract:

In this paper, we introduce a class of 3-ary algebras, called the 3-Lie-Rinehart algebra, and we discuss the basic structure thereof. The 3-Lie-Rinehart algebras are constructed using 3-ary differentiable functions, modules of known 3-Lie algebras, and inner derivatives of 3-Lie algebras.

Key words: 3-Lie algebra, commutative associative algebra, 3-Lie-Rinehart algebra
