Chevalley Groups

In this thesis, we construct Chevalley groups over arbitrary fields. The construction is based on the properties of semi-simple complex Lie algebras, the existence of Chevalley bases and notion of universal enveloping algebras. Using integral lattices in universal enveloping algebras and integral properties of Chevalley bases, we present a method which produces, for any complex simple Lie group, an analogous group over an arbitrary field.
