Event description

Homogeneous spaces provide a formalism for understanding symmetries and dynamics. Arguably the simplest dynamical homogeneous spaces are those of the Aristotelean type. We show there are precisely five Aristotelean Lie algebras up to isomorphism and investigate the spaces generated by quotienting these algebras by a rotational subalgebra.
