We further show that there is also a one-to-one correspondence between generalized orthogonal derivations (resp. generalized orthogonal automorphisms) on generalized metric n -Leibniz algebras and Lie triple data. Key words: Generalized metric n -Leibniz algebra, metric Lie algebra, generalized orthogonal representation, generalized orthogonal derivation, generalized orthogonal automorphism 1. Introduction Ternary Lie algebras (3-Lie algebras) or more generally n -ary Lie algebras are the natural generalization of Lie algebras. They were introduced and studied by Filippov in [13] and can be traced back to Nambu [22]. See [15–17, 23] and the review article [9] for more details. This type of algebras appeared also in the algebraic formulation of Nambu mechanics [22] and generalizing Hamiltonian mechanics by considering two Hamiltonians; see [14, 24]. Moreover, 3-Lie algebras appeared in string theory and M-theory. In [3], Basu and Harvey suggested replacimg the Lie algebra appearing in the Nahm equation by a 3-Lie algebra for the lifted Nahm equations. Furthermore, in the context of the Bagger–Lambert–Gustavsson model of multiple M2-branes, Bagger and Lambert managed to construct, using a ternary bracket, an N = 2 supersymmetric version of the world
