$O(d,1)$ isomorphisms to $Sp(n;\mathbb{F})$ for some fields $\mathbb{F}$ and $n$

39 Views Asked by At

The following orthogonal groups claimed to have the isomorphism (see the Abstract of this paper or here PDF) to Symplectic group:

$$O(2,1) \simeq Sp(2;\mathbb{R})?$$ $$O(3,1) \simeq Sp(2;\mathbb{C})?$$ $$O(4,1) \simeq Sp(2;\mathbb{H})?$$

How to justify or falsify these isomorphisms?

Do we have other isomorphisms?

$$O(d,1) \simeq Sp(n;\mathbb{F})?$$

for other $d$, $n$ and $\mathbb{F}$? or other than $Sp$?

Can we show these isomorphisms (by wise arguments, no need to be sophisticated proofs)?

(p.s. We also know that $Spin(3,1) \simeq SL(2;\mathbb{C})$.)

Many Thanks!
