Summary

A nonzero left-invariant regular Borel measure on a locally compact Hausdorff group, unique up to positive scale; right Haar measure is analogous, and a left Haar measure is also right-invariant precisely for unimodular groups.

Notes

Left Haar measure is unique up to positive scale. Right Haar measure is analogous; a left Haar measure is also right-invariant precisely when the group is unimodular.

Permalink to relation

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

Every locally compact Hausdorff topological group admits a nonzero left Haar measure, unique up to multiplication by a positive scalar.

How to interpret this relation type

Feed several structures into a construction junction and impose compatibility between them.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.

Authored explanation

Invariant integration over compact groups underlies group averaging, lattice gauge theory, and representation orthogonality.

How to interpret this relation type

A mathematical concept supplies part of the formal language, state space, representation, or analytic machinery used by a scientific or mathematical-physics concept. The source is the mathematical predecessor; this does not claim that physical content follows from mathematics alone.
