| Aug 2, 2011 at 20:51 | comment | added | Ben McKay | Lie's classification of Lie group actions on surfaces is explained in great detail in Mostow, George Daniel, The extensibility of local Lie groups of transformations and groups on surfaces. Ann. of Math. (2) 52, (1950). 606–636. The classification is explained more briefly, but perhaps in manner that is easier to survey, in the appendices of Olver, Peter J.(1-MN) Equivalence, invariants, and symmetry. (English summary) Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1995. | |
