Conditional on , the holding time has an exponential distribution of rate , and after that holding time the next state is with transition probability . The memoryless property of exponential random variables and the Markov property of therefore make a continuous-time Markov chain.
Moreover , so . The strong law of large numbers gives almost surely, hence and the process is nonexplosive. Its Q-matrix is
Equivalently, if is the diagonal matrix with entries , then
For and , the characteristic function is
For a multivariate normal distribution with covariance matrix , the coordinates are uncorrelated and hence independent by independence of uncorrelated jointly normal variables. Therefore
This is the characteristic function of an isotropic Gaussian vector.

It follows that the unit-vector stabilizer in a special orthogonal group is an embedded submanifold diffeomorphic to , and
At , its tangent space is
For any , both and contain the identity. At the identity,
Identify with the exterior square . The orthogonal complement of is . If and are linearly independent, the nonzero bivector belongs to the orthogonal complements of both tangent spaces. Their sum is therefore a proper subspace of , so the intersection is not transverse. If , then , whose tangent space is proper, so they are again not transverse. Consequently
as summarized by distinct unit-vector stabilizers are not transverse.
Let be the vector space of real symmetric matrices and consider
At ,
This derivative is surjective: for , choosing gives . Thus is a regular value and the orthogonal group is a submanifold of codimension
The determinant takes only the values on , so the special orthogonal group is an open-and-closed submanifold of . Therefore
The tangent space is the kernel of :
where the Special orthogonal Lie algebra is the vector space of skew-symmetric matrices. This proves the special orthogonal group as a submanifold description.
Define the smooth function
At its derivative is
This linear map is surjective because ; for example, . Hence one is a regular value, and the regular level set theorem makes
an embedded codimension-one submanifold of . Its tangent space is the kernel of the derivative:
This is the unit sphere as a regular level set.
Choose a -basis of and write

Write the multiplication table as
with fixed structure constants . Repeated multiplication shows that every entry of is a polynomial in . Hence
By the criterion supplied in the question,
Consequently
which is a distinguished open set, and therefore a Zariski-open set. This is the determinant construction showing that primitive elements form a principal Zariski-open set. No assertion that is nonzero is needed.
Let and define
Each term in the defining polynomial is multiplied by :
Thus is a holomorphic automorphism of , with inverse obtained by replacing by . By the assumption it extends to a holomorphic automorphism of ; in the projective model it is
It has order exactly seven because is primitive and is not identically zero. Hence contains an element of order seven.
The extended coordinate function is a meromorphic function as a holomorphic map to the Riemann sphere. Compose it with the seventh-power map of the sphere and set
This map is nonconstant and holomorphic as a map to . Since ,
Homogenizing the affine equation gives the projective closure
This is the Klein quartic. It is smooth: if all three projective partial derivatives vanished, then
Multiplying them gives . If one coordinate is zero, the displayed equations force all three to vanish, which is impossible in projective space. Thus is a smooth compactification of . The smooth compactification compatible with the extended coordinate functions is its normalization, and since is already smooth it is biholomorphic to .
For a direct genus computation, consider the extended coordinate map . A generic leaves the cubic equation
so . In the affine part, ramification occurs where . Solving gives and the seven points
At the origin, , so the ramification index of a holomorphic map is three and the contribution is two. At each of the other seven points, , , and , so the ramification index is two and each contributes one.
There are two points at infinity. Near , in coordinates , , the equation is
and , so is unramified. Near , in coordinates , , the equation is
Thus and , so has ramification index two and contributes one. The total ramification is therefore
The Riemann-Hurwitz formula for the degree-three map to the sphere gives
and hence
This also agrees with the genus of a smooth plane curve of degree four.
Let

There is no point of at which both vanish. Indeed, if , then and give
Neither nor can be zero because . Substitution into gives , whereas substitution into gives ; these equations are incompatible.
For every , at least one partial derivative is nonzero. If , the holomorphic implicit function theorem expresses the curve near as , and the restriction of the -projection is a holomorphic coordinate chart. If , use the -projection instead. On overlaps, the transition functions are restrictions of holomorphic coordinate functions and are holomorphic. These charts define an atlas making a one-dimensional complex manifold, hence a Riemann surface.
For integer , define . The assumed monotonicity in gives
for every . Apply the monotone convergence theorem on with counting measure:
The function is itself nondecreasing, and the positive integers are cofinal in as , so its limit over real equals its limit over integer . Therefore
Without monotonicity, take
For each fixed , , so the sum of the pointwise limits is zero. At every , however, exactly one term is one, so and its limit is one. This moving-spike obstruction to interchanging a limit and an infinite sum gives the required counterexample.
The Beppo Levi theorem, or monotone convergence theorem, states that if is a sequence of nonnegative measurable functions on a measure space and
pointwise almost everywhere, then is measurable and
where either side may be infinite.
Measurability of follows from measurability of countable suprema. Since , monotonicity of the Lebesgue integral gives
For the reverse inequality, let be a nonnegative simple function with , and fix . Define
Then up to the null set on which convergence fails. Since ,

Equip with counting measure . For a nonnegative function , define
This lies in and agrees with the series as a Lebesgue integral against counting measure.
For , define

Thus the complex sum is defined under absolute convergence and can be obtained by integrating the real and imaginary parts.
A simple function on is a function with finite range, equivalently
