Lie algebras

Index of a Lie algebra

In algebra, let g be a Lie algebra over a field K. Let further be a one-form on g. The stabilizer gξ of ξ is the Lie subalgebra of elements of g that annihilate ξ in the coadjoint representation. The index of the Lie algebra is (Wikipedia).

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

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

Lagrange's Theorem and Index of Subgroups | Abstract Algebra

We introduce Lagrange's theorem, showing why it is true and follows from previously proven results about cosets. We also investigate groups of prime order, seeing how Lagrange's theorem informs us about every group of prime order - in particular it tells us that any group of prime order p

Jean Michel BISMUT - Fokker-Planck Operators and the Center of the Enveloping Algebra

The heat equation method in index theory gives an explicit local formula for the index of a Dirac operator. Its Lagrangian counterpart involves supersymmetric path integrals. Similar methods can be developed to give a geometric formula for semi simple orbital integrals associated with the

Ana Balibanu: The partial compactification of the universal centralizer

Abstract: Let G be a semisimple algebraic group of adjoint type. The universal centralizer is the family of centralizers in G of regular elements in Lie(G), parametrized by their conjugacy classes. It has a natural symplectic structure, obtained by Hamiltonian reduction from the cotangent

Pablo Linares & Markus Tempelmayr - A tree-free construction of the structure group

We present a new approach to regularity structures, and in particular to the construction of the structure group, which replaces the tree-based framework of Hairer by a more Lie-geometric setting. We consider the space of pairs (a,p), where a is a placeholder for the nonlinearity and p is
