Lie algebras are algebraic structures which were introduced to study the concept of infinitesimal transformations. The term "Lie algebra" (after Sophus Lie) was introduced by Hermann Weyl in the 1930s. In older texts, the name "infinitesimal group" is used. Related mathematical concepts include Lie groups and differentiable manifolds.

Geodesic in space of circulant matrices
I'm trying to find the geodesic that connects the identity with some circulant, symmetric matrix $U\in\mathrm{GL}(N,\mathbb{R})$, meaning we have
\begin{align}
U=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
u_1 & u_2 & …

Lifting one parameter subgroup $e^{t K}$ to the universal cover of $\mathrm{Sp}(2N,\mathbb{R})$
I would like to lift an arbitrary one-parameter subgroup $e^{t K}$ with $K\in\mathfrak{sp}(2N,\mathbb{R})$ to the universal cover $\widetilde{\mathrm{Sp}}(2N,\mathbb{R})$ (or at least its two-fold cov …

Lifting one parameter subgroup $e^{t K}$ to the universal cover of $\mathrm{Sp}(2N,\mathbb{R})$
I made some progress in the sense that I believe that I could reduce it to a more standard problem: Morally speaking, I have
\begin{align}
c_K(t)=\mathrm{Im}\log\det\left(\frac{e^{tK}-Je^{tK}J}{2}\rig …
