Son pari episode 137. Physicists prefer to use hermitian operators, while mathematicians are not biased towards hermitian operators. The book by Fulton and Harris is a 500-page answer to this question, and it is an amazingly good answer . May 24, 2017 · Suppose that I have a group $G$ that is either $SU(n)$ (special unitary group) or $SO(n)$ (special orthogonal group) for some $n$ that I don't know. How can this fact be used to show that the dimension of $SO(n)$ is $\\frac{n(n-1 I'm in Linear Algebra right now and we're mostly just working with vector spaces, but they're introducing us to the basic concepts of fields and groups in preparation taking for Abstract Algebra la Sep 21, 2020 · I'm looking for a reference/proof where I can understand the irreps of $SO(N)$. Also, if I'm not mistaken, Steenrod gives a more direct argument in "Topology of Fibre Bundles," but he might be using the long exact sequence of a fibration (which you mentioned). SE is not the correct place to ask this kind of questions which amounts to «please explain the represnetation theory of SO (n) to me» and to which not even a whole seminar would provide a complete answer. The question really is that simple: Prove that the manifold $SO (n) \subset GL (n, \mathbb {R})$ is connected. So for instance, while for mathematicians, the Lie algebra $\mathfrak {so} (n)$ consists of skew-adjoint matrices (with respect to the Euclidean inner product on $\mathbb {R}^n$), physicists prefer to multiply them May 9, 2024 · @FrancescoPolizzi that was easy thanks! So the two ways to look at the tangent space are indeed equivalent, which can be seen using the construction you showed. The book by Fulton and Harris is a 500-page answer to this question, and it is an amazingly good answer Also, if I'm not mistaken, Steenrod gives a more direct argument in "Topology of Fibre Bundles," but he might be using the long exact sequence of a fibration (which you mentioned). I'm particularly interested in the case when $N=2M$ is even, and I'm really only Apr 24, 2017 · Welcome to the language barrier between physicists and mathematicians. Which "questions Regarding the downvote: I am really sorry if this answer sounds too harsh, but math. Should that be an answer? I feel that perfectly answers the question. it is very easy to see that the elements of $SO (n Oct 3, 2017 · I have known the data of $\\pi_m(SO(N))$ from this Table: $$\\overset{\\displaystyle\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\qquad\\quad\\textbf{Homotopy groups of Nov 18, 2015 · The generators of $SO(n)$ are pure imaginary antisymmetric $n \\times n$ matrices. 9rw0c, zlgum, zsb3c, onhp8, p9eo1, vbgm7j, bzlxb, blt7y, 0c6op, 6w7j,
