or algebraic group
The linear representation of
in the tangent space
(or in the Lie algebra
of
) mapping each
to the differential
of the inner automorphism
. If
is a linear group in a space
, then
![]() |
The kernel contains the centre of
, and if
is connected and if the ground field has characteristic zero, coincides with this centre. The differential of the adjoint representation of
at
coincides with the adjoint representation
of
.
The adjoint representation of a Lie algebra is the linear representation
of the algebra
into the module
acting by the formula
![]() |
where is the bracket operation in the algebra
. The kernel
is the centre of the Lie algebra
. The operators
are derivations of
and are called inner derivations. The image
is called the adjoint linear Lie algebra and is an ideal in the Lie algebra
of all derivations of
, moreover
is the one-dimensional cohomology space
of
, defined by the adjoint representation. In particular,
if
is a semi-simple Lie algebra over a field of characteristic zero.
