Generalization of n-ary Nambu algebras and beyond

The aim of this paper is to introduce $n$-ary Hom-algebra structures generalizing the $n$-ary algebras of Lie type enclosing $n$-ary Nambu algebras, $n$-ary Nambu-Lie algebras, $n$-ary Lie algebras, and $n$-ary algebras of associative type enclosing $n$-ary totally associative and $n$-ary partially associative algebras. Also, we provide a way to construct examples starting from an $n$-ary algebra and an $n$-ary algebras endomorphism. Several examples could be derived using this process.
