In the mathematical fields of Lie theory and algebraic topology, the notion of Cartan pair is a technical condition on the relationship between a reductive Lie algebra and a subalgebra reductive in . A reductive pair is said to be Cartan if the relative Lie algebra cohomology : is isomorphic to the tensor product of the characteristic subalgebra : and an exterior subalgebra of , where *, the ''Samelson subspace'', are those primitive elements in the kernel of the composition , * is the primitive subspace of , * is the transgression, *and the map of symmetric algebras is induced by the restriction map of dual vector spaces . On the level of Lie groups, if ''G'' is a compact, connected Lie group and ''K'' a closed connected subgroup, there are natural fiber bundles :, where is the homotopy quotient, here homotopy equivalent to the regular quotient, and :. Then the characteristic algebra is the image of , the transgression from the primitive subspace ''P'' of is that arising from the edge maps in the Serre spectral sequence of the universal bundle , and the subspace of is the kernel of . ==References== * Werner Greub, Stephen Halperin, and Ray Vanstone ''Connections, Curvature, and Cohomology'' Volume III, Academic Press (1976). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cartan pair」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
