Kostant's convexity theorem : ウィキペディア英語版 | Kostant's convexity theorem In mathematics, Kostant's convexity theorem, introduced by , states that the projection of every coadjoint orbit of a connected compact Lie group into the dual of a Cartan subalgebra is a convex set. It is a special case of a more general result for symmetric spaces. Kostant's theorem is a generalization of a result of , and for hermitian matrices. They proved that the projection onto the diagonal matrices of the space of all ''n'' by ''n'' complex self-adjoint matrices with given eigenvalues Λ = (λ1, ..., λ''n'') is the convex polytope with vertices all permutations of the coordinates of Λ. In fact this result is 'Kostant's linear convexity theorem'; the main focus of is Kostant's nonlinear convexity theorem which involves the Iwasawa projection rather than the linear projection to the dual of a Cartan subalgebra. Kostant used this to generalize the Golden–Thompson inequality to all compact groups. ==Compact Lie groups== Let ''K'' be a connected compact Lie group with maximal torus ''T'' and Weyl group ''W'' = ''N''''K''(''T'')/''T''. Let their Lie algebras be and . Let ''P'' be the orthogonal projection of onto for some Ad-invariant inner product on . Then for ''X'' in , ''P''(Ad(''K'')⋅''X'') is the convex polytope with vertices ''w''(''X'') where ''w'' runs over the Weyl group.
