For a closed subgroup of a Lie group, this set is a real Lie subalgebra. Scalar closure is immediate; the Lie product formula in a Lie group and closedness of give addition. It is a closed vector subspace, also directly by continuity of the Exponential map of a Lie group. Conjugating its one-parameter subgroups by elements of preserves it. Differentiating the Adjoint representation of a Lie group along gives for . After the closed-subgroup theorem establishes smoothness, is exactly the tangent space .
