On the existence of orthogonal decompositions of the simple Lie algebra of type C3

چکیده
Orthogonal decompositions (OD:s) that are monomial have been constructed for most simple Lie algebras but in some cases the existence of an OD is still an open question. One of them is Lie algebras of type Cn where n is not a power of 2. In this paper we use computational methods to prove that C3 has no monomial OD. 1 Orthogonal decompositions of simple Lie algebras The basic question, of which we will study a special case, is whether all classical simple Lie algebras can be decomposed into a direct sum of Cartan subalgebras which are orthogonal to each other in the sense that the Killing form B(X, Y ) = 0 if X and Y are elements from different Cartan subalgebras occurring in the decomposition. Such a direct sum is called an orthogonal decomposition (OD). This problem has been studied for all simple Lie algebras over C, and OD:s have been constructed in all cases except for An when n + 1 is not a prime power and Cn when n is not a power of 2 [3]. In the latter cases the existence of an OD is an open question. One result pointing to a negative answer is that A5 has no OD of monomial type [4]. The main result of this paper is that C3 has no monomial orthogonal decomposition either.

Monomial Irreducible sln-Modules
In this article, we introduce monomial irreducible representations of the special linear Lie algebra $sln$. We will show that this kind of representations have bases for which the action of the Chevalley generators of the Lie algebra on the basis elements can be given by a simple formula.
متن کاملFixed point theory in generalized orthogonal metric space
In this paper, among the other things, we prove the existence and uniqueness theorem of fixed point for mappings on a generalized orthogonal metric space. As a consequence of this, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of fixed point of Cauchy problem for the first order differential equation.
متن کاملMaximal prehomogeneous subspaces on classical groups
Suppose $G$ is a split connected reductive orthogonal or symplectic group over an infinite field $F,$ $P=MN$ is a maximal parabolic subgroup of $G,$ $frak{n}$ is the Lie algebra of the unipotent radical $N.$ Under the adjoint action of its stabilizer in $M,$ every maximal prehomogeneous subspaces of $frak{n}$ is determined.
متن کاملRealization of locally extended affine Lie algebras of type $A_1$
Locally extended affine Lie algebras were introduced by Morita and Yoshii in [J. Algebra 301(1) (2006), 59-81] as a natural generalization of extended affine Lie algebras. After that, various generalizations of these Lie algebras have been investigated by others. It is known that a locally extended affine Lie algebra can be recovered from its centerless core, i.e., the ideal generated by weight...
