  2. Lorentz group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lorentz_group

    (The improper Lorentz transformations have determinant −1.) The subgroup of proper Lorentz transformations is denoted SO(1, 3). The subgroup of all Lorentz transformations preserving both orientation and direction of time is called the proper, orthochronous Lorentz group or restricted Lorentz group, and is denoted by SO + (1, 3). [a]

    that carry both the indices (x, α) operated on by Lorentz transformations and the indices (p, σ) operated on by Poincaré transformations. This may be called the Lorentz–Poincaré connection. [25] To exhibit the connection, subject both sides of equation to a Lorentz transformation resulting in for e.g. u,

    In the fundamental branches of modern physics, namely general relativity and its widely applicable subset special relativity, as well as relativistic quantum mechanics and relativistic quantum field theory, the Lorentz transformation is the transformation rule under which all four-vectors and tensors containing physical quantities transform from one frame of reference to another.

    The transformations of these functions in spacetime are given below. Under a proper orthochronous Lorentz transformation (r, t) → Λ(r, t) in Minkowski space, all one-particle quantum states ψ σ locally transform under some representation D of the Lorentz group: [8] [9]

    Under a proper orthochronous Lorentz transformation x → Λx in Minkowski space, all one-particle quantum states ψ j σ of spin j with spin z-component σ locally transform under some representation D of the Lorentz group: [12] [13] () where D(Λ) is some finite-dimensional representation, i.e. a matrix.

    A derivation for the transformation of the Lorentz force for the particular case u = 0 is given here. [4] A more general one can be seen here. [5] The transformations in this form can be made more compact by introducing the electromagnetic tensor (defined below), which is a covariant tensor.
