Like everything else in Lie groups, first start with the matrix as discussed at Section "Lie algebra of a matrix Lie group".

Intuitively, a Lie algebra is a simpler object than a Lie group. Without any extra structure, groups can be very complicated non-linear objects. But a Lie algebra is just an algebra over a field, and one with a restricted bilinear map called the Lie bracket, that has to also be alternating and satisfy the Jacobi identity.

Another important way to think about Lie algebras, is as infinitesimal generators.

Because of the Lie group-Lie algebra correspondence, we know that there is almost a bijection between each Lie group and the corresponding Lie algebra. So it makes sense to try and study the algebra instead of the group itself whenever possible, to try and get insight and proofs in that simpler framework. This is the key reason why people study Lie algebras. One is philosophically reminded of how normal subgroups are a simpler representation of group homomorphisms.

To make things even simpler, because all vector spaces of the same dimension on a given field are isomorphic, the only things we need to specify a Lie group through a Lie algebra are:Note that the Lie bracket can look different under different basis of the Lie algebra however. This is shown for example at Physics from Symmetry by Jakob Schwichtenberg (2015) page 71 for the Lorentz group.

As mentioned at Lie Groups, Physics, and Geometry by Robert Gilmore (2008) Chapter 4 "Lie Algebras", taking the Lie algebra around the identity is mostly a convention, we could treat any other point, and things are more or less equivalent.

Input: a sequence of $N$ complex numbers $x_k$.

Output: another sequence of $N$ complex numbers $X_k$ such that:Intuitively, this means that we are braking up the complex signal into $N$ sinusoidal frequencies:and is the amplitude of each sine.

We use Zero-based numbering in our definitions because it just makes every formula simpler.

Motivation: similar to the Fourier transform:In particular, the discrete Fourier transform is used in signal processing after a analog-to-digital converter. Digital signal processing historically likely grew more and more over analog processing as digital processors got faster and faster as it gives more flexibility in algorithm design.

The orthogonal group has 2 connected components:

It is instructive to visualize how the $\pm 1$ looks like in $SO(3)$:

As a result it is isomorphic to the direct product of the special orthogonal group by the cyclic group of order 2:

A low dimensional example:because you can only do two things: to flip or not to flip the line around zero.

Note that having the determinant plus or minus 1 is not a definition: there are non-orthogonal groups with determinant plus or minus 1. This is just a property. E.g.:has determinant 1, but:so $M$ is not orthogonal.

Basically, a "representation" means associating each group element as an invertible matrices, i.e. a matrix in (possibly some subset of) $GL(n)$, that has the same properties as the group.

Or in other words, associating to the more abstract notion of a group more concrete objects with which we are familiar (e.g. a matrix).

Each such matrix then represents one specific element of the group.

This is basically what everyone does (or should do!) when starting to study Lie groups: we start looking at matrix Lie groups, which are very concrete.

Or more precisely, mapping each group element to a linear map over some vector field $V$ (which can be represented by a matrix infinite dimension), in a way that respects the group operations:

This is a porn style defined by Ciro Santilli as:Ciro believes that this is an interesting type of pornography, as it feels more natural and humane than all the horrible trash that comes out of horrendous professional mainstream porn industry.

Yes, it could go down the YouTube/Instagram alley, and lead the vloggers to do things they wouldn't normally do because of the audience. But who is to say that Ciro Santilli doesn't do the same on Stack Overflow to some extent?

That type of porn requires some big courage to make. Or balls if you will. Kudos to those creators, as it is so taboo it could greatly impact their future job prospects.

The travel sex vlog appears to be the most popular way to do it. Presumably the reason being that you would not be able to interact with people in a normal job, so to keep things interesting you need to go to some random places.
