Group (Classical)

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras · lie-groups.tex
A group is a pair $(G,\cdot)$ consisting of a set $G$ together with a binary operation \[ \cdot : G \times G \to G \] such that:
  1. Associativity: For all $a,b,c \in G$, $(a \cdot b)\cdot c = a \cdot (b \cdot c)$.
  2. Identity: There exists an element $e \in G$ such that for all $a \in G$, $e \cdot a = a \cdot e = a$.
  3. Inverses: For every $a \in G$, there exists $a^{-1} \in G$ such that $a \cdot a^{-1} = a^{-1} \cdot a = e$.
