Reversibility and real adjoint orbits of linear maps

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We extend classical results on the classification of reversible elements of the group mathrmGL(n,mathbbC) (and mathrmGL(n,mathbbR)) to mathrmGL(n,mathbbH) using an infinitesimal version of the classical reversibility, namely adjoint reality in the Lie algebra set-up. We also provide a new proof of such a classification for the general linear groups over mathbbR and mathbbC. Further, we classify the real adjoint orbits in the Lie algebra mathfrakgl(n,mathbbD) for mathbbD=mathbbR,mathbbC or mathbbH.


Summary: We extend the classical results on the classification of the reversible elements of the group \(\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{C})\) (and \(\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{R})\)) to \(\mathrm{GL}(n, \mathbb{H})\) using an infinitesimal version of the classical reversibility, namely adjoint reality in the Lie algebra set-up. We also provide a new proof of such a classification for the general linear groups over \(\mathbb{R}\) and \(\mathbb{C}\). Further, we classify the real adjoint orbits in the Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{gl}(n, \mathbb{D})\) for \(\mathbb{D = \mathbb{R}}\), \(\mathbb{C}\) or \(\mathbb{H}\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 1519.57002].
