Why $\\operatorname{Spin}(n)$ is the double cover of $SO(n)$?
Dec 16, 2024 · You can let $\text {Spin} (n)$ act on $\mathbb {S}^ {n-1}$ through $\text {SO} (n)$. Since $\text {Spin} (n-1)\subset\text {Spin} (n)$ maps to $\text {SO} (n-1)\subset\text {SO} (n)$, …
Fundamental group of the special orthogonal group SO(n)
Also, if I'm not mistaken, Steenrod gives a more direct argument in "Topology of Fibre Bundles," but he might be using the long exact sequence of a fibration (which you mentioned).
Prove that the manifold $SO (n)$ is connected
The question really is that simple: Prove that the manifold $SO (n) \subset GL (n, \mathbb {R})$ is connected. it is very easy to see that the elements of $SO (n ...
Dimension of SO (n) and its generators - Mathematics Stack …
Nov 18, 2015 · The generators of $SO(n)$ are pure imaginary antisymmetric $n \\times n$ matrices. How can this fact be used to show that the dimension of $SO(n)$ is $\\frac{n(n-1 ...

Dec 7, 2024 · From here I got another doubt about how we connect Lie stuff in our Clifford algebra settings. Like did we really use fundamental theorem of Gleason, Montgomery and Zippin to …
What is the relationship between SL (n) and SO (n)?
I'm in Linear Algebra right now and we're mostly just working with vector spaces, but they're introducing us to the basic concepts of fields and groups in preparation taking for Abstract …
