Theorem (Chevalley)
The functor that takes linear algebraic groups to their -points constitutes an equivalence of categories between compact Lie groups and -aniosotropic reductive algebraic groups over all whose connected components have -points.
For as in this equivalence, then the complex Lie group is the complexification of .
