Information About

Weight Space




  • is defined by


:V_\mu:=\{v\in V; orall h\in\mathfrak{h}\quad h\cdot v=\mu(h)v\}

Similarly, we can define a weight space V_\mu
for Representation of a Lie Group resp. an Associative Algebra as
the subspace of Eigenvector s of some maximal Commutative Subgroup resp. Subalgebra of the Eigenvalue \mu.

Elements of the weight spaces are called ''weight vectors''.
