Abstract |
|
The notion of Killing-Ricci forms of Lie triple algebras is introduced as a generalization of both of Killing forms of Lie algebras and the Ricci forms of the tangent Lie triple systems of Riemannian symmetric spaces. For a class of Lie triple algebras G, it is shown that G is decomposed into a direct sum of simple ideals if its Killing-Ricci form is nondegenerate. As an application, structure of the reductive pair consisting of a semi-simple Lie algebra and its semi-simple subalgebra is investigated. |
