List of Lie groups topics

This is a list of Lie group topics, by Wikipedia page.

Examples See Table of Lie groups for a list

General linear group, special linear group SL2(R) SL2(C) Unitary group, special unitary group SU(2) SU(3) Orthogonal group, special orthogonal group Rotation group SO(3) SO(8) Generalized orthogonal group, generalized special orthogonal group The special unitary group SU(1,1) is the unit sphere in the ring of coquaternions. It is the group of hyperbolic motions of the Poincaré disk model of the Hyperbolic plane. Lorentz group Spinor group Symplectic group Exceptional groups G2 F4 E6 E7 E8 Affine group Euclidean group Poincaré group Heisenberg group
