Fine Group Gradings of the Real Forms
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an explicit description of the 'fine group gradings' (i.e. group gradings which cannot be further refined) of the real forms of the semisimple Lie algebras sl(4, C), sp(4, C), and o(4, C). All together 12 real Lie algebras are considered, and the total of 44 of their fine group gradings are listed. The inclusions sl(4, C) ⊃ sp(4, C) ⊃ o(4, C) are an important tool in our presentation. Systematic use is made of the faithful representations of the three Lie algebras by 4 × 4 matrices.

Fine Gradings of Low-Rank Complex Lie Algebras and of Their Real Forms⋆
In this review paper, we treat the topic of fine gradings of Lie algebras. This concept is important not only for investigating the structural properties of the algebras, but, on top of that, the fine gradings are often used as the starting point for studying graded contractions or deformations of the algebras. One basic question tackled in the work is the relation between the terms ‘grading’ a...
متن کاملFine Gradings on Simple Classical Lie Algebras
The fine abelian group gradings on the simple classical Lie algebras (including D4) over algebraically closed fields of characteristic 0 are determined up to equivalence. This is achieved by assigning certain invariant to such gradings that involve central graded division algebras and suitable sesquilinear forms on free modules over them.

متن کاملFINE GRADINGS ON THE EXCEPTIONAL LIE ALGEBRA d4
We describe all the fine group gradings, up to equivalence, on the Lie algebra d4. This problem is equivalent to finding the maximal abelian diagonalizable subgroups of the automorphism group of d4. We prove that there are fourteen by using two different viewpoints. The first approach is computational: we get a full description of the gradings by using a particular implementation of the automor...
