Abstract: In this paper we continue to develop the topological method started in Santos-San Martin cite{ariasm} to get semigroup generators of semi-simple Lie groups. Consider a subset GammasubsetG that contains a semi-simple subgroup G1 of G. Then Gamma generates G if mathrmAdleft(Gammaight) generates a Zariski dense subgroup of the algebraic group mathrmAdleft(Gight). The proof is reduced to check that some specific closed orbits of G1 in the flag manifolds of G are not trivial in the sense of algebraic topology. Here, we consider three different cases of semi-simple Lie groups G and subgroups G1subsetG.
