Representing Lie Algebras Using Approximations with Nilpotent Ideals
Journal of Lie theory, Tome 26 (2016) no. 1, pp. 169-179
We prove a refinement of Ado's theorem: a $d$-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebra over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero with an ideal of class $\varepsilon_1$ and codimension $\varepsilon_2$ admits a faithful representation of degree ${d + \varepsilon_1\choose\varepsilon_1} \cdot {d + \varepsilon_2\choose\varepsilon_2}$. We then apply the theory of almost-algebraic hulls to generalise this result to the representation of arbitrary finite-dimensional Lie algebras and of Lie algebras graded by an abelian, finitely-generated, torsion-free group.
