Funded Activity Summary

Computing with Lie groups and algebras: nilpotent orbits and applications. This project aims to advance knowledge of an important class of Lie algebras, for which recent work has shown that a deeper mathematical theory, and better computational tools are required. Lie theory is a mathematical area with rich applications in the physical sciences. Expected outcomes from this project include the first systematic treatment of these algebras, new powerful algorithms to compute with them, and explicit nilpotent orbit classifications that will solve open problems in black hole theory. This should significantly enhance fundamental mathematical research and the Lie functionality of leading computer algebra systems, and is expected to strengthen international linkages.
