Does SAGE currently include any functionality for manipulating Lie algebras? (I only need reductive Lie algebras, because I'm using them to study compact Lie groups.) For instance, I'd like to be able to manipulate irreducibles (encoded by their highest weights), so that I can form a tensor product and decompose it into irreducibles.
In specific instances (like GL_n) I know in principle to translate such questions into terms compatible with the combinatorics functionality we have from Symmetrica. But I want to experiment with other cases (like Sp_n) and I'd rather simply work at the Lie algebra level, without having to keep track of the combinatorics myself. In any case, I'm likely to be bugging people about this at SAGE Days 7...
