Quasi-split group
In mathematics, a quasi-split group over a field is a reductive group with a Borel subgroup defined over the field. Simply connected quasi-split groups over a field correspond to actions of the absolute Galois group on a Dynkin diagram. Examples
All split groups (those with a split maximal torus) are quasi-split. These correspond to quasi-split groups where the action of the Galois group on the Dynkin diagram is trivial. showed that all simple algebraic groups over finite fields are quasi-split. Over the real numbers, the quasi-split groups include the split groups and the complex groups, together with the orthogonal groups On,n+2, the unitary groups SUn,n and SUn,n+1, and the form of E6 with signature 2.
