Lie groups: Engel's theorem @richarde.borcherds7998

Uploaded February 2021 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups.

We state Engel's theorem about nilpotent Lie algebras and sketch a proof of it. We give an example of a nilpotent Lie group that is not a matrix group.
