O(2)


still being written

An elementary example of a Lie group is afforded by O(2),the orthogonal groupMathworldPlanetmath in two dimensions. This is the setof transformationsMathworldPlanetmath of the plane which fix the origin andpreserve the distance between points. It may be shownthat a transform has this property if and only if it is ofthe form

(xy)M(xy),

where M is a 2×2 matrix such that MTM=I.(Such a matrix is called orthogonalPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath.)

It is easy enough to check that this is a group. To seethat it is a Lie group, we first need to make sure that itis a manifold. To that end, we will parameterize it.Calling the entries of the matrix a,b,c,d, the conditionbecomes

(0110)=(abcd)T(abcd)=(a2+c2ab+cdab+cdb2+d2)

which is equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath to the following system of equations:

a2+c2=1
ab+cd=0
b2+d2=1

The first of these equations can be solved by introducing aparameter θ and writing a=cosθ and c=sinθ. Then the second equation becomes bcosθ+dsinθ=0, which can be solved byintroducing a parameter r:

b=-rsinθ
d=rcosθ

Substituting this into the third equation results in r2=1,so r=-1 or r=+1. This means we have two matrices foreach value of θ:

(cosθ-sinθsinθcosθ)  (cosθsinθsinθ-cosθ)

Since more than one value of θ will produce the samematrix, we must restrict the range in order to obtain abona fide coordinate. Thus, we may cover O(2) with anatlas consisting of four neighborhoodsMathworldPlanetmath:

{(cosθ-sinθsinθcosθ)-34π<θ<34π}
{(cosθ-sinθsinθcosθ)14π<θ<74π}
{(cosθsinθsinθ-cosθ)-34π<θ<34π}
{(cosθsinθsinθ-cosθ)14π<θ<74π}

Every element of O(2) must belong to at least one ofthese neighborhoods. It its trivial to check that thetransition functions between overlapping coordinatepatches are
