Lie Groups and Lie Algebras · lie-groups.tex
A left action of a group $G$ (Definition~Group (Classical)) on a set $X$ is a map $G \times X \to X$, written $(g, x) \mapsto g \cdot x$, satisfying \[ e \cdot x = x \quad and \quad g \cdot (h \cdot x) = (gh) \cdot x \quad for all g,h \in G,\, x \in X. \]
