Lie algebra automorphism

Inner Lie algebra automorphism

An inner automorphism of a Lie algebra ๐”ค is given by eโˆ’ad๐‘ฅ, where ad๐‘ฅ is the adjoint representation for some ๐‘ฅ โˆˆ๐”ค. #m/def/lie As the Exponential of a derivation on a Lie algebra it is an automorphism.1 The set of all inner automorphisms Innโก๐”ค forms a normal subgroup of Autโก๐”ค.
