  2. Exponential map (Lie theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_map_(Lie_theory)

    The existence of the exponential map is one of the primary reasons that Lie algebras are a useful tool for studying Lie groups. The ordinary exponential function of mathematical analysis is a special case of the exponential map when G {\displaystyle G} is the multiplicative group of positive real numbers (whose Lie algebra is the additive group ...

  3. Dynkin diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynkin_diagram

    The nodes and edges of the quotient ("folded") diagram are the orbits of nodes and edges of the original diagram; the edges are single unless two incident edges map to the same edge (notably at nodes of valence greater than 2) – a "branch point" of the map, in which case the weight is the number of incident edges, and the arrow points towards ...

  4. Representation of a Lie group - Wikipedia

    If is a Lie group with Lie algebra , then we have the exponential map from to , written as X ↦ e X , X ∈ g . {\displaystyle X\mapsto e^{X},\quad X\in {\mathfrak {g}}.} If G {\displaystyle G} is a matrix Lie group, the expression e X {\displaystyle e^{X}} can be computed by the usual power series for the exponential.

  5. Lie theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie_theory

    The foundation of Lie theory is the exponential map relating Lie algebras to Lie groups which is called the Lie group–Lie algebra correspondence. The subject is part of differential geometry since Lie groups are differentiable manifolds. Lie groups evolve out of the identity (1) and the tangent vectors to one-parameter subgroups generate the ...

  6. Derivative of the exponential map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative_of_the...

    In the theory of Lie groups, the exponential map is a map from the Lie algebra g of a Lie group G into G. In case G is a matrix Lie group , the exponential map reduces to the matrix exponential . The exponential map, denoted exp: g → G , is analytic and has as such a derivative ⁠ d / dt ⁠ exp( X ( t )):T g → T G , where X ( t ) is a C 1 ...

  7. Cartographic propaganda - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartographic_propaganda

    However, cartographic propaganda is widely successful because maps are often presented as a miniature model of reality, and it is a rare occurrence that a map is referred to as a distorted model, which sometimes can "lie" and contain items that are completely different from reality. [4]

  8. Interstate 495 (New York) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interstate_495_(New_York)

    Exit 70 in Manorville is the last full interchange, as it is the last interchange that allows eastbound traffic on, and the first to allow westbound off. After exit 71 (NY 24/Nugent Drive), the expressway begins to narrow as it approaches its eastern terminus. Until 2008, just before exit 72 (NY 25), the three eastbound lanes narrowed to two ...

  9. Lie group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lie_group

    The definition above is easy to use, but it is not defined for Lie groups that are not matrix groups, and it is not clear that the exponential map of a Lie group does not depend on its representation as a matrix group. We can solve both problems using a more abstract definition of the exponential map that works for all Lie groups, as follows.
