SimpLie is a simple program for Lie algebra. It has been specifically written for level decompositions of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras, but it is not limited to that task. Its current features are:

  • Calculation of Lie algebra properties based on Dynkin diagrams:
    1. Type
    2. Dimension
    3. Rank
    4. (Dual) Coxeter labels and numbers.
    5. Roots
  • Calculation of highest weight representations.
  • Level decompositions.
  • Visualization of root systems by means of Coxeter projections and Hasse diagrams.

On the user end, it has the following benefits:

  • A graphical user interface, making it easy to use.
  • Cross-platform (written in Java).
  • LaTeX & EPS export capability.
  • Saving and loading of calculation results (root systems).

Here is the root system of E10 as visualized by SimpLie:
