Definitions and Properties
Lie algebras can be interpreted in a number of ways: the set of infinitesimal transformations, tangent space about the identity element of a group, and a linear space with special properties. Formally, a Lie algebra (denoted \(\mathfrak {g}\)) is a vector space equipped with a bilinear, non-associative map \(\left [.,. \right ] : \mathfrak {g} \times \mathfrak {g} \rightarrow \mathfrak {g} \) known as the Lie bracket. The Lie bracket satisfies the following relationships:
