Generalized derivation extensions of 3-Lie algebras and corresponding Nambu-Poisson structures

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a generalized derivation on a 3-Lie algebra. We construct a new 3-Lie algebra using a generalized derivation and call it the generalized derivation extension. We show that the corresponding Leibniz algebra on the space of fundamental objects is the double of a matched pair of Leibniz algebras. We also determine the corresponding Nambu-Poisson structures under some conditions.
