The concept of a
group
was described briefly in Chapter 1. This chapter serves as an introduction to a special class of groups, the
Lie groups
, which are named after Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie.1 Furthermore, when referring to Lie groups, what will be meant in the context of this book is
matrix Lie groups
, where each element of the group is a square invertible matrix. Other books focusing specifically on matrix groups include [3, 9, 19].
