The commutative 2-cocycle conjecture for classical Lie algebras in characteristic 3
The commutative 2-cocycle conjecture for classical Lie algebras in characteristic 3
Let be a finite-dimensional Lie algebra of classical type over a field of characteristic , with . A commutative -cocycle is a symmetric bilinear form satisfying the commutative -cocycle identity, and a symmetric bilinear invariant form is a symmetric bilinear form invariant under the Lie bracket.
Commutative 2-cocycle conjecture. The space of commutative -cocycles on coincides with the space of symmetric bilinear invariant forms and is therefore -dimensional, assuming the preceding one-dimensionality conjecture.
This is intended to describe commutative -cocycles for classical Lie algebras in characteristic , where trace forms can vanish and the usual Killing-form argument does not apply. The source presents the claim as supported by computer calculations; its status is otherwise unresolved in the supplied text.
