The uniqueness of Lyapunov rank among symmetric cones
The Lyapunov rank of a cone is the dimension of the Lie algebra of its automorphism group. It is invariant under linear isomorphism and in general not unique—two or more non-isomorphic cones can share the same Lyapunov rank. It is therefore not possible in general to identify cones using Lyapunov rank. But suppose we look … Read more
