Major corrections to fix silly fallacies

Nov 25, 2016 at 18:45 | comment | added | YCor | In general it's just $\subset$. For instance, if $S$ is $SL_2$, $R$ is the 3-dimensional Heisenberg Lie algebra (with standard action), then $[S,R]=R$, so $[R,[S,R]]$ is the 1-dimensional center, but $[S,[R,R]]=0$. So the "Jacobi identity for subalgebras" here is a proper inclusion. | |

Nov 25, 2016 at 1:34 | comment | added | YCor | I guess "this fact" refers to the fact $[S,R]$ is an ideal, not just the equality $[S,R]=[S,[S,R]]$. | |
