Infinite-dimensional Lie Algebra
In mathematics, especially in Lie theory, E''n'' is the Kac–Moody algebra whose Dynkin diagram is a bifurcating graph with three branches of length 1, 2 and ''k'', with . In some older books and papers, ''E''2 and ''E''4 are used as names for ''G''2 and ''F''4. Finite-dimensional Lie algebras The E''n'' group is similar to the A''n'' group, except the nth node is connected to the 3rd node. So the Cartan matrix appears similar, −1 above and below the diagonal, except for the last row and column, have −1 in the third row and column. The determinant of the Cartan matrix for E''n'' is . *E3 is another name for the Lie algebra ''A''1''A''2 of dimension 11, with Cartan determinant 6. *:\left \begin 2 & -1 & 0 \\ -1 & 2 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 2 \end\right /math> *E4 is another name for the Lie algebra ''A''4 of dimension 24, with Cartan determinant 5. *:\left \begin 2 & -1 & 0 & 0 \\ -1 & 2 & -1& 0 \\ 0 & -1 & 2 & -1 \\ 0 & 0 & -1 & 2 \end\right /math> *E5 is ano ...

Mathematics
Mathematics is a field of study that discovers and organizes methods, Mathematical theory, theories and theorems that are developed and Mathematical proof, proved for the needs of empirical sciences and mathematics itself. There are many areas of mathematics, which include number theory (the study of numbers), algebra (the study of formulas and related structures), geometry (the study of shapes and spaces that contain them), Mathematical analysis, analysis (the study of continuous changes), and set theory (presently used as a foundation for all mathematics). Mathematics involves the description and manipulation of mathematical object, abstract objects that consist of either abstraction (mathematics), abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicspurely abstract entities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. Mathematics uses pure reason to proof (mathematics), prove properties of objects, a ''proof'' consisting of a succession of applications of in ...

Unimodular Lattice
In geometry and mathematical group theory, a unimodular lattice is an integral Lattice (group), lattice of Lattice (group)#Dividing space according to a lattice, determinant 1 or −1. For a lattice in ''n''-dimensional Euclidean space, this is equivalent to requiring that the volume of any fundamental domain for the lattice be 1. The E8 lattice, ''E''8 lattice and the Leech lattice are two famous examples. Definitions * A lattice is a free abelian group of finite free abelian group, rank with a symmetric bilinear form (·, ·). * The lattice is integral if (·,·) takes integer values. * The dimension of a lattice is the same as its free module, rank (as a Z-module (mathematics), module). * The norm of a lattice element ''a'' is (''a'', ''a''). * A lattice is positive definite if the norm of all nonzero elements is positive. * The determinant of a lattice is the determinant of the Gram matrix, a matrix (mathematics), matrix with entries (''ai'', ''aj'' ...

Uniform 1 K2 Polytope
In geometry, 1k2 polytope is a uniform polytope in n-dimensions (n = k+4) constructed from the En Coxeter group. The family was named by their Coxeter symbol 1k2 by its bifurcating Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, with a single ring on the end of the 1-node sequence. It can be named by an extended Schläfli symbol . Family members The family starts uniquely as 6-polytopes, but can be extended backwards to include the 5- demicube (demipenteract) in 5-dimensions, and the 4-simplex (5-cell) in 4-dimensions. Each polytope is constructed from 1k-1,2 and (n-1)- demicube facets. Each has a vertex figure of a ' polytope is a birectified n-simplex, ''t2''. The sequence ends with k=6 (n=10), as an infinite tessellation of 9-dimensional hyperbolic space. The complete family of 1k2 polytope polytopes are: # 5-cell: 102, (5 tetrahedral cells) # 112 polytope, (16 5-cell, and 10 16-cell facets) # 122 polytope, (54 demipenteract facets) # 132 polytope, (56 122 and 126 demihexeract facets) # ...

Uniform 2 K1 Polytope
In geometry, 2k1 polytope is a uniform polytope in ''n'' dimensions (''n'' = ''k''+4) constructed from the En (Lie algebra), En Coxeter group. The family was named by their Coxeter symbol as 2k1 by its bifurcating Coxeter-Dynkin diagram, with a single ring on the end of the 2-node sequence. It can be named by an extended Schläfli symbol . Family members The family starts uniquely as 6-polytopes, but can be extended backwards to include the 5-orthoplex (pentacross) in 5-dimensions, and the 4-simplex (5-cell) in 4-dimensions. Each polytope is constructed from (n-1)-simplex and 2k-1,1 (n-1)-polytope facets, each has a vertex figure as an (n-1)-demihypercube, demicube, '. The sequence ends with k=6 (n=10), as an infinite hyperbolic tessellation of 9-space. The complete family of 2k1 polytope polytopes are: # 5-cell: 201, (5 Tetrahedron, tetrahedra cells) # Pentacross: 211, (32 5-cell (201) facets) # 2 21 polytope, 221, (72 5-simplex and 27 5-orthoplex (211) facets) # 2 31 polytop ...
