Speaker: Donald Barnes (University of Sydney) 

Date: Friday 4 November 

Time: 12:05-12:55pm 

Venue: Carslaw 175 

Title: 

Faithful representations of Leibniz algebras 

Abstract: 

The Ado-Iwasawa Theorem asserts that for a finite-dimensional Lie algebra, there exists
a faithful finite-dimensional module.  I shall prove that for a finite-dimensional
Leibniz algebra of dimension n, there exists a faithful module of dimension less than or
equal to n+1.
