Properties of Lie algebras

Semisimple Lie algebra

In mathematics, a Lie algebra is semisimple if it is a direct sum of simple Lie algebras. (A simple Lie algebra is a non-abelian Lie algebra without any non-zero proper ideals). Throughout the article, unless otherwise stated, a Lie algebra is a finite-dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic 0. For such a Lie algebra , if nonzero, the following conditions are equivalent: * is semisimple; * the Killing form, κ(x,y) = tr(ad(x)ad(y)), is non-degenerate; * has no non-zero abelian ideals; * has no non-zero solvable ideals; * the radical (maximal solvable ideal) of is zero. (Wikipedia).

The Lie-algebra of Quaternion algebras and their Lie-subalgebras

In this video we discuss the Lie-algebras of general quaternion algebras over general fields, especially as the Lie-algebra is naturally given for 2x2 representations. The video follows a longer video I previously did on quaternions, but this time I focus on the Lie-algebra operation. I st

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

Jean Michel : Quasisemisimple classes

Abstract: This is a report on joint work with François Digne. Quasisemisimple elements are a generalisation of semisimple elements to disconnected reductive groups (or equivalently, to algebraic automorphisms of reductive groups). In the setting of reductive groups over an algebraically c

Axioms of Lie algebra theory

In this video I write down the axioms of Lie algebras and then discuss the defining anti-symmetric bilinear map (the Lie bracket) which is zero on the diagonal and fulfills the Jacobi identity. I'm following the compact book "Introduction to Lie Algebras" by Erdmann and Wildon. https://gi

EDIT: At 6:24, the product should be "(e sub H, e sub N)", not "(e sub H, e sub G)" Abstract Algebra: Using automorphisms, we define the semidirect product of two groups. We prove the group property and construct various examples, including the dihedral groups. As an application, we

Abstract: Let G be a connected semisimple Lie group with Lie algebra 𝔤. There are two natural duality constructions that assign to it the Langlands dual group G^∨ (associated to the dual root system) and the Poisson-Lie dual group G^∗. Cartan subalgebras of 𝔤^∨ and 𝔤^∗ are isomorphic to ea

AlgTopReview4: Free abelian groups and non-commutative groups

Free abelian groups play an important role in algebraic topology. These are groups modelled on the additive group of integers Z, and their theory is analogous to the theory of vector spaces. We state the Fundamental Theorem of Finitely Generated Commutative Groups, which says that any such

Group automorphisms in abstract algebra

Group automorphisms are bijective mappings of a group onto itself. In this tutorial I define group automorphisms and introduce the fact that a set of such automorphisms can exist. This set is proven to be a subgroup of the symmetric group. You can learn more about Mathematica on my Udem
