Complex Lie group

In geometry, a complex Lie group is a Lie group over the complex numbers; i.e., it is a complex-analytic manifold that is also a group in such a way is holomorphic. Basic examples are , the general linear groups over the complex numbers. A connected compact complex Lie group is precisely a complex torus (not to be confused with the complex Lie group ). Any finite group may be given the structure of a complex Lie group. A complex semisimple Lie group is a linear algebraic group. The Lie algebra of a complex Lie group is a complex Lie algebra.

Lie groups: Lie algebras

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. We define the Lie algebra of a Lie group in two ways, and show that it satisfied the Jacobi identity. The we calculate the Lie algebras of a few Lie groups. For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.co

Lie groups: Lie groups and Lie algebras

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. We discuss the relation between Lie groups and Lie algebras, and give several examples showing how they behave differently. Lie algebras turn out to correspond more closely to the simply connected Lie groups. We then explain

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras: Lesson 22 - Lie Group Generators A Lie group can always be considered as a group of transformations because any group can transform itself! In this lecture we replace the "geometric space" with the Lie group itself to create a new collection of generators. P

Lie groups: Positive characteristic is weird

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. We give several examples to show that, over fields of positive characteristic, Lie algebras can behave strangely, and have a weaker connection to Lie groups. In particular the Lie algebra does not generate the ring of all in

Askold Khovanskii: Complex torus, its good compactifications and the ring of conditions

Abstract: Let X be an algebraic subvariety in (ℂ∗)n. According to the good compactifification theorem there is a complete toric variety M⊃(ℂ∗)n such that the closure of X in M does not intersect orbits in M of codimension bigger than dimℂX. All proofs of this theorem I met in literature ar
