[Abstract-pdf]

This paper studies the relationship between crossed modules of Lie algebras and their centres. We show that the homotopy of the centre of any crossed module \(\partial : L_1\to L_0\) of Lie algebras fits in an exact sequence involving cohomology of the homotopy Lie algebras \(\pi_0(L_*)\) and \(\pi_1(L_*)\).

Keywords: Crossed modules, Lie algebra cohomology, Drinfeld centre.
