Rotation in nD<br />

Consider: R v R -1 mit v =v ┴ + v ║ :<br />

– We have: U v ┴ = 0 d.h. Uv ┴ =U v ┴<br />

=u 1 u 2 v ┴= - u 1 v ┴ u 2= v ┴ u 1 u 2= v ┴ U =v ┴U<br />

i.e. v ┴ commutes with U, thus also R<br />

R v R -1 = R v ┴ R -1 + R v ║ R -1<br />

R v ┴ R -1 =(cos + sin U) v ┴ (cos - sin U)<br />

= v ┴(cos² - sin² U²) = v ┴<br />

R v R-1 = v┴ + e U v║ e- U = v┴ + v║ e-2 U<br />
