| Apr 25, 2011 at 21:37 | comment | added | Theo Johnson-Freyd | This is a good question, but probably not a great fit for this forum --- it easily arises (and is worded as if it has arisen) as a homework problem in a first course on Lie theory. Since it has been answered and accepted, it's not a big deal. | |

| Apr 25, 2011 at 11:47 | comment | added | agt | About some of following answers: Excuse me, but is not the content of the question exactly to prove that $T_{e,e}\mu(\xi,\eta)=\xi+\eta$ for any $\xi,\eta\in T_eG$? So we should not appeal to it in a proof. But we should point out that this expression is just a consequence of the canonical identification of $T(G\times G)$ with the direct product $TG\times TG$. | |
