Orbit and Stabilizer

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras · lie-groups.tex
Let $G$ act on $X$ (Definition~Group Action). For $x \in X$, the orbit and stabilizer of $x$ are \[ G \cdot x := \{ g \cdot x \mid g \in G \}, \qquad G_x := \{ g \in G \mid g \cdot x = x \}. \] Note that $G_x \leq G$ is a subgroup in the sense of Definition~Subgroup and Normal Subgroup.
