Reductive group: Characters, Real reductive groups & Torsors and the Hasse principle

In mathematics, a reductive group is a type of linear algebraic group over a field. One definition is that a connected linear algebraic group G over a perfect field is reductive if it has a representation that has a finite kernel and is semisimple, i.e. a direct sum of irreducible representations. Reductive groups include some of the most important…
