[GAP Forum] The LiealgDB Package

[Bettina Eick]

Dear GAP Forum,

it is my pleasure to announce that the GAP package 'LieAlgDB' by
Willem de Graaf and Csaba Schneider has been accepted as an official
GAP package.

The package provides access to some classifications of small-dimensional
Lie algebras including:
  * the non-solvable Lie algebras over finite fields up to dimension 6;
  * the nilpotent Lie algebras of dimension up to 9 over GF(2) and
    of dimension up to 7 over GF(3) or GF(5);
  * the simple Lie algebras of dimensions between 7 and 9 over GF(2);
  * the solvable Lie algebras of dimension at most 4;
  * the nilpotent Lie algebras of dimensions at most 5 and of
    dimension 6 over fields of odd characteristic.

The package is written in GAP code and is available from the GAP web pages.

Best wishes,
          Bettina
