public final class so3_1Dim4
extends LieAlgebra
The so3_1Dim4 class encapsulates so(3,1) algebras using the 4 dimensional (fundamental) representation. Elements are represented by vectors with a matrix basis.

Constructor Index

o so3_1Dim4()
Constructs an so(3,1) algebra.

Method Index

o basis()
Returns the basis used to represent the Lie algebra.
o getElement(DoubleVector)
Returns an element as a matrix (vector*basis).
o multiply(DoubleVector, DoubleVector)
Returns the Lie bracket (commutator) of two elements.

Constructors

o so3_1Dim4 
 public so3_1Dim4()
Constructs an so(3,1) algebra.

Methods

o getElement 
 public ComplexSquareMatrix getElement(DoubleVector v)
Returns an element as a matrix (vector*basis).

Overrides:
getElement in class LieAlgebra
o multiply 
 public DoubleVector multiply(DoubleVector a,
                              DoubleVector b)
Returns the Lie bracket (commutator) of two elements. Same as the vector cross product.

Overrides:
multiply in class LieAlgebra
o basis 
 public ComplexSquareMatrix[] basis()
Returns the basis used to represent the Lie algebra.

Overrides:
basis in class LieAlgebra
