Lie algebra  

Definición

  • In mathematics, a Lie algebra (pronounced /l/ LEE) is a vector space together with an operation called the Lie bracket, an alternating bilinear map , that satisfies the Jacobi identity. Otherwise said, a Lie algebra is an algebra over a field where the multiplication operation is now called Lie bracket and has two additional properties: it is alternating and satisfies the Jacobi identity. The Lie bracket of two vectors and is denoted . The Lie bracket does not need to be associative, meaning that the Lie algebra can be non associative. Given an associative algebra (like for example the space of square matrices), a Lie bracket can be and is often defined through the commutator, namely defining correctly defines a Lie bracket in addition to the already existing multiplication operation.
