Domain-specific

• Killing form
  • … form is a nonzero scalar multiple of \(\operatorname{tr}(xy)\), making its nondegeneracy transparent on the traceless matrices. to For a real semisimple Lie algebra, the signature of the Killing form helps distinguish compact and noncompact directions and enters the Cartan decomposition. demonstrates that continuity.
