Chapter Chapter 2 in Supersymmetry and Equivariant de Rham Theory, 1999, pp 9-32 from Springer
Abstract:
Abstract Throughout the rest of this monograph we will use a restricted version of the Einstein summation convention: A summation is implied whenever a repeated Latin letter occurs as a superscript and a subscript, but not if the repeated index is a Greek letter. So, for example, if g is a Lie algebra, and we have fixed a basis, ξ 1,...,ξ n we have $$\left[ {{\xi _i},{\xi _j}} \right] = c_{ij}^k{\xi _k}$$ where the $$c_{ij}^k$$ are called the structure constants of g relative to our chosen basis.
