Motivation
Let (g,τ) be a real simple symmetric Lie algebra and let W⊂g be an invariant closed convex cone which is pointed and generating with τ(W)=−W. For elements h∈g with τ(h)=h, we classify the Lie algebras g(W,τ,h) which are generated by the closed convex cones
C±(W,τ,h):=(±W)∩g±1−τ(h),
where g±1−τ(h):={x∈g:τ(x)=−x,[h,x]=±x}. These cones occur naturally as the skew-symmetric parts of the Lie wedges of endomorphism semigroups of certain standard subspaces. We prove in particular that, if g(W,τ,h) is non-trivial, then it is either a hermitian simple Lie algebra of tube type or a direct sum of two Lie algebras of this type. Moreover, we give for each hermitian simple Lie algebra and each equivalence class of involutive automorphisms τ of g with τ(W)=−W a list of possible subalgebras g(W,τ,h) up to isomorphy.
This mission is the statement-level formalization of Classification of 3-graded causal subalgebras of real simple Lie algebras (arXiv:2001.03125v2). Every numbered result of the paper was scanned. The results stated here are open sorry goals, ready for solvers to prove.
What is formalized
28 statements of the paper are in Lean 4 (Mathlib 0df444a). The goal theorem is Lemma 2.6: tube type and nonzero three-gradings (Lemma 2.6, PDF p. 6). The milestones are the other numbered results, in the paper's order, each quoting the paper.
The paper's own objects are the definition item of this mission. Objects shared across papers come from the prove2quantum library and from earlier papers' missions, listed as references.
Provenance: prove2quantum's pipeline drafted each statement (gpt-6.1-sol on Stanford's Sherlock cluster). A blind read-back, written without seeing the paper, is attached to every item. An independent moderator compared each statement against the paper and passed the whole paper without edits.
Deferred results
5 results of the paper are not stated yet, because the library lacks an interface they need:
- Theorem 1.1: The complete Table 1 relation of concrete real symmetric-pair and output Lie algebras (hard)
- Theorem 3.7: Table 3 as a paired concrete Jordan/Lie isomorphism classification (hard)
- Proposition 3.23: Table 4 as a five-row relation of four concrete real Lie algebras (hard)
- Proposition 3.25: Exhaustiveness for every row of the concrete Table 1 relation (hard)
- Proposition 3.26: Realizability of every allowed concrete Table 1 output for each fixed involution (hard)
