Bases: Category_over_base_ring

The category of Lie groups.

A Lie group is a topological group with a smooth manifold structure.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.categories.lie_groups import LieGroups
sage: C = LieGroups(QQ); C
Category of Lie groups over Rational Field
additional_structure()#

Return None.

Indeed, the category of Lie groups defines no new structure: a morphism of topological spaces and of smooth manifolds is a morphism as Lie groups.

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.categories.lie_groups import LieGroups
sage: LieGroups(QQ).additional_structure()
super_categories()#

EXAMPLES:

sage: from sage.categories.lie_groups import LieGroups
sage: LieGroups(QQ).super_categories()
