The notion of contraction of a Lie algebra (also called a degeneration by some authors) was originally introduced by physicists as a tool to relate classical and quantum mechanics. Inoenue and Wigner used contractions attending to a particularization, namely, that a subalgebra remains fixed ...
注意代数(algebra)指的就是有双线性积的向量空间. 1. 群作用 教科书讲群大多都从变换群或置换群讲起,作用在有限集合 X 上的对称群 S(X) 就是把 X 中的元 x 打乱重组的所有操作,即 X\rightarrow X 的双射(一一对应,不能丢失或添加某个元)的集合. 注意“不对某些元操作”在这里也被视为一种操作,...
First, we generalize the Lie algebraic structure of general linear algebra gl(n,R) to this dimension-free quotient space. With natural Lie-bracket, Σ1 becomes an Lie algebra. It is obvious that Σ1 is an infinite dimensional Lie algebra. But it is interesting that Σ1 has many ...
Lie Algebra In subject area: Mathematics A Lie algebra is a vector space L over a field F that is closed under a binary operation, called the Lie bracket and denoted by [B, C] for B and C in L. From: Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology (Third Edition), 2003 About this ...

This textbook treats Lie groups, Lie algebras and their representations in an elementary but fully rigorous fashion requiring minimal prerequisites. In particular, the theory of matrix Lie groups and their Lie algebras is developed using only linear algebra, and more motivation and intuition for proofs...
This chapter makes use of various standardresults from linear algebra that are summarized in Appendix B. This chapteralso assumes basic facts and definitions from the theory of abstract groups;the necessary information is provided in Appendix A.Definition 1.1. The general linear group over the real...
We first define the notions of Lie groups and Lie algebras and show the relationship between Lie groups and Lie algebras. In particular, we will give some methods to compute the Lie algebra of a Lie group. Many examples of Lie groups and Lie algebras, including the general linear Lie ...
Our treatment is brief in order to pro-vide only the necessary background for an understanding of the applications in later chapters. The relationship between a Lie algebra and its corresponding Lie group is discussed in Appendix B.Page %P Close Plain text Look Inside Citations Other ...
