Lie algebras are algebraic structures which were introduced to study the concept of infinitesimal transformations. The term "Lie algebra" (after Sophus Lie) was introduced by Hermann Weyl in the 1930s. In older texts, the name "infinitesimal group" is used. Related mathematical concepts include Lie groups and differentiable manifolds.

Can we write $sl(4,\mathbb{C})$ as the vector space sum of two copies of $sl(3,\mathbb{C})$? [closed]
We know $sl(4,\mathbb{C})$ has dimension $15$ and $sl(3,\mathbb{C})$ has dimension $8$. Is it possible to write $sl(4,\mathbb{C})$ as the vector space sum of two Lie subalgebras that are isomorphic to …

Could we define the semi-direct product of two universal enveloping algebras?
If we have two Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}$ and $\mathfrak{h}$ over a field $k$, and if we have a Lie algebra homomorphism $\mathfrak{g}\rightarrow \text{Der}_k(\mathfrak{h})$, then we can define the s …

Let $\Delta$ be a irreducible root system and $\Delta^+$ be its positive roots.
We say a subset $\Delta^{\prime}\subset \Delta^+$ can generate the Weyl group if reflections of roots in $\Delta^{\prim …

I think the answer is yes because $(\Phi_{[\lambda]})^{\vee}$ and $(\Phi_{[\mu]})^{\vee}$ are closed sub-root systems of the dual root system $\Phi^{\vee}$. Closed means if $\alpha$ and $\beta$ are ro …

About the term "tangential derivation" on a free Lie algebra.
Let $\mathcal{lie}_n$ be the free Lie algebra generated by $n$ elements $x_1,\ldots, x_n$. A derivation $u\in \text{Der}(\mathcal{lie}_n)$ is called tangential if there exist $a_i\in \mathcal{lie}_n, …
