For any Lie algebra g there is a notion of Leibniz cohomology HL(g), which is defined like the classical Lie cohomology, but with the n-th tensor product g⊗n in place of the n-th exterior product Λ g. This Leibniz cohomology is defined on a larger class of algebras : the Leibniz algebras (cf. [L1], [L2]). A Leibniz algebra is a vector space equipped with a product satisfying a variation of the Jacobi identity :
