and relies on the following Rota–Baxter relation in image:

      [1.33]image

      which is easily verified by decomposing a and b into their image-parts. Let φ be a character of ℋ with values in image. Suppose that we have φ- (xy) = φ- (x)φ − (y) for any x, y ∈ ℋ, such that |x| + |y| ≤ d – 1, and compute for x, y, such that |x| + |y| = d:

image

      with X = φ(x) – Σ(x) φ-(x′)φ(x″) and Y = φ(y) – Σ(y) φ – (y′)φ(y″). Using the formula:

image image

      hence:

image

      We have to compare this expression with:

image

      These two expressions are easily seen to be equal using the commutativity of the algebra image, the character property for φ and the induction hypothesis. □

      REMARK 1.2.– Assertion 2 admits a more conceptual proof (see the notes by Ebrahimi-Fard in the present volume), which is based on the following recursive expressions for the components of the Birkhoff decomposition: define the Bogoliubov preparation map as the map b : , recursively given by:

      [1.34]image

      Then, the components of φ in the Birkhoff decomposition read:

      [1.35]image

      The Bogoliubov preparation map also writes in a more concise form:

      [1.36]image

      [1.37]image

      [1.38]image

      where image is the projection defined by P(α) = π ∘ α. The renormalizedpart φ+ satisfies an analogous recursive expression:

      [1.39]image

      [1.40]image

      with β := φ1 * α = eφ1, and where is the projection on image defined by image.

      Pre-Lie algebras are sometimes called Vinberg algebras, as they appear in the work of Vinberg (1963) under the name “left-symmetric algebras” on the classification of homogeneous cones. They appear independently at the same time in the work of Gerstenhaber (1963) on Hochschild cohomology and deformations of algebras, under the name “pre-Lie algebras”, which is now the standard terminology. The term “chronological algebras” has also been used sometimes, for example, in the fundamental work of Agrachev and Gamkrelidze (1981). The notion itself can, however, be traced back to the work of Cayley (1857) which, in modern language, describes the pre-Lie algebra morphism Fa from the pre-Lie algebra of rooted trees into the pre-Lie algebra of vector fields on ℝn, sending the one-vertex tree to a given vector field a. For a survey emphasizing geometric aspects, see Burde (2006).

      1.4.1. Definition and general properties

      A left pre-Lie algebra over a field k is a k-vector space A with a bilinear binary composition ⊳ that satisfies the left pre-Lie identity:

      [1.41]image

      [1.42]image

      The left pre-Lie identity is rewritten as:

      where La: AA is defined by Lab = ab, and the bracket on the left-hand side is defined by [a, b] := abba. As an easy consequence, this bracket satisfies the Jacobi identity: If A is unital (i.e. there exists 1A, such that 1a = a1 = 1 for any aA), it is immediate thanks to the fact that L : A → End A is injective. If not, we can add a unit by considering image and extend image accordingly. As any right pre-Lie algebra (A, ⊲) is also a left pre-Lie algebra with product ab := ba, we can stick to left pre-Lie algebras, which we will do unless specifically indicated.

      The following is taken from the paper by Agrachev and Gamkrelidze (1981). Suppose that A is a left pre-Lie algebra endowed with a compatible decreasing filtration, namely, A = A1A2A3 ⊃ …, such that the intersection of the Aj’s reduces to {0}, and such that ApAqAp+q. Suppose, moreover, that A is complete with respect to this filtration. The Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula:

      [1.44]image

      then endows A with a structure
