Abstract | A connected algebraic group in characteristic 0 is uniquely determined by its Lie algebra. In this paper algorithms are given for constructing an algebraic group in characteristic 0 , given its Lie algebra. In particular, this leads to an algorithm for finding a maximal reductive subgroup and the unipotent radical of an algebraic group. |
