1: Structured Description


Here is the rules of Structured Description.

Entities:
\(G\): \(\in \{\text{ the Lie groups }\}\)
\(\phi\): \(: T_{(1, 1)}(G \times G) \to T_1G \oplus T_1G\), \(= \text{ the 'vectors spaces - linear morphisms' isomorphism }\)
\(m\): \(: G \times G \to G\), \(= \text{ the multiplication map }\)
\(d m_{(1, 1)}\): \(: T_{(1, 1)}(G \times G) \to T_1G\), \(= \text{ the differential }\)
//

Statements:
\(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1}: T_1G \oplus T_1G \to T_1G, (v_1, v_2) \mapsto v_1 + v_2\)

2: Proof


Whole Strategy: Step 1: see that \(\phi (v) = (d \pi_{1, (1, 1)} (v), d \pi_{2, (1, 1)} (v))\) and \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1}\) is linear; Step 2: see that \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((v^1, 0)) = v^1\) and \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((0, v^2)) = v^2\); Step 3: conclude the proposition.

Step 1:

For each \(v \in T_{(1, 1)}(G \times G)\), \(\phi (v) = (d \pi_{1, (1, 1)} (v), d \pi_{2, (1, 1)} (v))\) where \(\pi_j: G \times G \to G\) is the projection into the \(j\)-th component, by the proposition that for any finite-product \(C^\infty\) manifold with boundary, at each point of the manifold with boundary, there is a 'vectors spaces - linear morphisms' isomorphism from the tangent vectors space at the point onto the direct sum of the tangent vectors spaces of the constituents at the corresponding points.

As \(\phi\) is a 'vectors spaces - linear morphisms' isomorphism, \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1}\) is linear.

Step 2:

Let us think of any \((v^1, 0) \in T_1G \oplus T_1G\).

\(v := \phi^{-1} ((v^1, 0))\) can be realized by a \(C^\infty\) curve, \(\gamma: I \to G \times G, t \mapsto (\gamma^1 (t), 1)\), where \(v^1 = d \gamma^1 (t) / d t \vert_0\).

\(d m_{(1, 1)} (v) = d (m \circ \gamma (t)) / d t \vert_0 = d (\gamma^1 (t) 1) / d t \vert_0 = d \gamma_1 (t) / d t \vert_0 = v^1\).

That means that \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((v^1, 0)) = v^1\).

Let us think of any \((0, v^2) \in T_1G \oplus T_1G\).

\(v := \phi^{-1} ((0, v_2))\) can be realized by a \(C^\infty\) curve, \(\gamma: I \to G \times G, t \mapsto (1, \gamma^2 (t))\), where \(v^2 = d \gamma^2 (t) / d t \vert_0\).

\(d m_{(1, 1)} (v) = d (m \circ \gamma (t)) / d t \vert_0 = d (1 \gamma^2 (t)) / d t \vert_0 = d \gamma^2 (t) / d t \vert_0 = v^2\).

That means that \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((0, v_2)) = v_2\).

Step 3:

As \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1}\) is linear, \(d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((v_1, v_2)) = d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((v_1, 0) + (0, v_2)) = d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((v_1, 0)) + d m_{(1, 1)} \circ \phi^{-1} ((0, v_2)) = v_1 + v_2\).
