Journal of Lie Theory 32 (2022), No. 4, 1171--1186 Copyright Heldermann Verlag 2022 Weakly Associative and Symmetric Leibniz Algebras Elisabeth Remm (1) Université de Haute-Alsace, IRIMAS UR 7499, Mulhouse, France (2) Université de Strasbourg, France elisabeth.remm@uha.fr We study a special class of weakly associative algebras: the symmetric Leibniz algebras. We describe the structure of the commutative and skew-symmetric algebras associated with the polarization-depolarization principle. We also give a structure theorem for the symmetric Leibniz algebras and we describe the low dimensional classification. We finally study formal deformations in the context of deformation quantization. Keywords: Weakly associative algebras, nonassociative algebras, symmetric Leibniz algebras, deformation quantization.
