Weyl groups of fine gradings on simple Lie algebras of types A, B, C and D (original) (raw)

Given a grading Γ : L = g∈G Lg on a nonassociative algebra L by an abelian group G, we have two subgroups of Aut(L): the automorphisms that stabilize each component Lg (as a subspace) and the automorphisms that permute the components. By the Weyl group of Γ we mean the quotient of the latter subgroup by the former. In the case of a Cartan decomposition of a semisimple complex Lie algebra, this is the automorphism group of the root system, i.e., the so-called extended Weyl group. A grading is called fine if it cannot be refined. We compute the Weyl groups of all fine gradings on simple Lie algebras of types A, B, C and D (except D 4 ) over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2.

Group Gradings on Simple Lie Algebras of Type

2005

In this paper we describe all group gradings by a finite abelian group G of any Lie algebra L of the type "A" over algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero.

Group Gradings on Simple Lie Algebras of Type "A

arXiv: Rings and Algebras, 2005

In this paper we describe all group gradings by a finite abelian group G of any Lie algebra L of the type "A" over algebraically closed field F of characteristic zero.

Classification of group gradings on simple Lie algebras of types A, B, C and D

2010

For a given abelian group G, we classify the isomorphism classes of G-gradings on the simple Lie algebras of types An (n ≥ 1), Bn (n ≥ 2), Cn (n ≥ 3) and Dn (n > 4), in terms of numerical and group-theoretical invariants. The ground field is assumed to be algebraically closed of characteristic different from 2.

Group Gradings on Finitary Simple Lie Algebras

International Journal of Algebra and Computation, 2012

We classify, up to isomorphism, all gradings by an arbitrary abelian group on simple finitary Lie algebras of linear transformations (special linear, orthogonal and symplectic) on infinite-dimensional vector spaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2.

Group gradings on restricted Cartan-type Lie algebras

Pacific Journal of Mathematics, 2011

For a given abelian group G, we classify the isomorphism classes of G-gradings on the simple restricted Lie algebras of types W (m; 1) and S(m; 1) (m ≥ 2), in terms of numerical and group-theoretical invariants. Our main tool is automorphism group schemes, which we determine for the simple restricted Lie algebras of types S(m; 1) and H(m; 1). The ground field is assumed to be algebraically closed of characteristic p > 3.

Fine gradings on simple classical Lie algebras

2010

The fine abelian group gradings on the simple classical Lie algebras (including D 4 ) 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.

Group gradings on simple Lie algebras in positive characteristic

Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2008

In this paper we describe all gradings by a finite abelian group G on the following Lie algebras over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic p = 2: sl n (F) (n not divisible by p), so n (F) (n ≥ 5, n = 8) and sp n (F) (n ≥ 6, n even).
