A simple Lie algebra is a non-abelian Lie algebra that cannot be decomposed into smaller, non-trivial Lie algebras. It plays a crucial role in the classification of Lie algebras and has significant applications in theoretical physics and geometry. Simple Lie algebras are characterized by their structure constants and are often associated with simple groups, making them fundamental objects in representation theory and algebraic structures.
