The preceding Dynkin diagram identifies the root system $D_3$ with $A_3$. The classification of finite-dimensional complex Simple Lie algebras by connected Dynkin diagrams therefore givesThis is the Isomorphism between so6 and sl4. Both algebras have dimension $15$, consistently with the classification.
