Structure of semisimple Lie groups and their representations,Saito free divisors and related topics

I study Mathematics. A Lie group is a kind of generalizations of linear algebra. It is a group and a differentiable manifold. My main subject is structue of spaces assoiated with semisimple Lie groups. Many things about the structure of semisimple groups are known by their root systems. The ''root'' inspires the roots of algebraic equations. The name ''root' comes from the roots of the characterisitic equation of a matrix. And the root system is obtained by generalizing the properties of roots of a characteristic equation. The Weyl group is defined as a finite group generated by reflections with respect to the root vectors. Studying the properties of Weyl groups, I am focused on various interesting phenomena. On the other hand, I also study nilpotent elements of semisimple Lie algebras. Many mysterious phenomena appear from the study of nilpotent orbits. I am studying these subjects for many years. Recent interest is Saito free divisors and related topics. In particular I am interested in the construction of systems of uniformization equations with respect to Saito free divisors.
