(R : Type u) → (L : Type v) → [inst : CommRing R] → [inst_1 : LieRing L] → [inst_2 : LieAlgebra R L] → LieIdeal R L

The center of a Lie algebra is the set of elements that commute with everything. It can be viewed as the maximal trivial submodule of the Lie algebra as a Lie module over itself via the adjoint representation.
