As a step towards computer-formalizing the classification of low-dimensional Lie algebras, we finally formalized our first non-boring theorem in #Lean4 !

If L is a 3-dimensional Lie algebra (over any field) with a one-dimensional commutator subalgebra which is contained in the center of L, then L is isomorphic to the 3D Heisenberg algebra - that is, it has a basis (𝑒₀, 𝑒₁, 𝑒₂) such that the bracket is determined by
[𝑒₁,𝑒₂]=𝑒₀,
[𝑒₀,𝑒₁]=0,
[𝑒₀,𝑒₂]=0.

Now we're working on the analogous results for higher dimensional commutator subalgebras. These are going to be harder because
a) there's no one-size-fits-all classification statement for arbitrary fields, and
b) they rely on certain normal forms of matrices which aren't yet implemented in #mathlib .
