SO(4) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

SO(4) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In mathematics, SO(4) is the four-dimensional rotation group; that is, the group of rotations about a fixed point in four-dimensional Euclidean space. The name comes from the fact that it is (isomorphic to) the special orthogonal group of order 4.

In this article rotation means rotational displacement. For the sake of uniqueness rotation angles are assumed to be in the segment [0,π] except where mentioned or clearly implied by the context otherwise.
