Discovering real lie subalgebras of e6 using Cartan decompositions

Creator:

Wangberg, Aaron and Dray, Tevian

Abstract:

The process of complexification is used to classify Lie algebras and identify their Cartan subalgebras. However, this method does not distinguish between real forms of a complex Lie algebra, which can differ in signature. In this paper, we show how Cartan decompositions of a complexified Lie algebra can be combined...
