LieAlgebras[AscendingIdealsBasis] - find a basis for a solvable Lie algebra which defines an ascending chain of ideals
Calling Sequences
AscendingIdealsBasis(Alg)
Parameters
Alg - (optional) Maple name or string, the name of an initialized Lie algebra
|
Description
|
|
•
|
Every solvable Lie algebra admits a basis [e_1, e_2, ..., e_n] such that the vectors [e_1, e_2, ..., e_k] form an ideal in [e_1, e_2, ..., e_(k + 1)]. AscendingIdealsBasis calculates such a basis.

Example 1.
First we initialize a 5 dimensional Lie algebra.

|
| (2.1) |
We can use the command Query/"Solvable" to check that this is a solvable Lie algebra.

|
| (2.2) |
Now we calculate a basis with the ascending ideals property.
Alg1 >
|
|
| (2.3) |
The following two commands check, for example, that B[1..3] is an ideal in B[1..4].
Alg1 >
|
|
| (2.4) |
Alg1 >
|
|
| (2.5) |
The command Query/"AscendingIdealsBasis" will verify that the basis B has the ascending ideals property.
Alg1 >
|
|
| (2.6) |
The ascending ideals property becomes apparent if we re-initialize the Lie algebra using the basis B (using the command LieAlgebraData).
