Abstract

We define the Lie transformation algebra of a (not necessarily associative) monoid object AA in a KK-linear symmetric monoidal category (C,,1)(C,\otimes,1), where KK is a field. When AA is associative and satisfies certain conditions, we describe explicity the Lie transformation algebra and inner derivations of AA. Additionally, we also show that derivations preserve the nucleus of the monoid AA.
