23 Chevalley Basis 11 of 30 Definition (Chevalley Basis) Formal basis: L = Fh i Fx α i=1,...,n α Φ Bilinear anti-symmetric multiplication satisfies ( i, j {1,..., n}; α, β Φ) : x Α x Β H x Α Β x Α [h i,h j ] = 0, [x α,h i ] = α,f i x α, [x α,x α ] = n { i=1 e i, α h i, N α,β x α+β if α + β Φ, [x α,x β ] = 0 otherwise, and the Jacobi identity. x Α Β x Β
24 Why? 12 of 30 Why Chevalley bases? Because transformation between two Chevalley bases is an automorphism of L, So we can test isomorphism between two Lie algebras (and find isomorphisms!) by computing Chevalley bases.
