View on Github →fix(algebra/lie/*): use correct terminology for centralizer
and normalizer
in Lie theory (#18348)
The naming here was wrong. If N : lie_submodule R L M
then:
{ m : M | ∀ (x : L), ⁅x, m⁆ ∈ N }
is the carrier of the normalizer ofN
. IfN : set M
then:{ x : L | ∀ (m ∈ N), ⁅x, (m : M)⁆ = 0 }
is the carrier of the centralizer ofN
. [No formal definition yet, seems important not to restrictN
to be alie_submodule
since an important case is to apply this toM = L
regarded as a Lie module over itself andN
alie_subalgebra
ofL
(but not necessarily alie_ideal
). Note this generaliseslie_module.ker
.] I'm a bit shocked I got this muddled originally.
