Roots and weights for instance if g is the lie algebra of a lie group g and if h is a cartan subalgebra of g, any conjugate ghg 1 of h by an arbitrary element of g is another cartan subalgebra.
For the general linear group the root spaces just correspond to. N gh and the normalizer of h is the maximal subalgebra containing h as an ideal. We call the individual numbers entriesof the matrix and refer to them by their row and column numbers. The fact that n gh is a subalgebra follows directly from the jacobi identity. The dimension of a cartan subalgebra is not in general the maximal dimension of an abelian subalgebra, even for complex simple lie algebras.
