All Lie Algebras and Representation Theory

This group gathers theorems about Lie algebras and about representation theory, which studies abstract algebraic objects by letting them act on vector spaces. It covers the structure of Lie algebras and their universal enveloping algebras, the decomposition of representations of finite and compact groups into irreducible pieces, and the relations between induced and restricted representations. A theorem belongs here when its cited article places it in the theory of Lie algebras or in representation theory.
