The group preserving a nondegenerate quadratic form of Lorentzian signature.
“Lorentz group” may denote the full group or a specified subgroup such as .

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
The Lorentz group is the Lie group preserving a Lorentzian quadratic form.
A more specific theory, model, entity class, or regime is obtained by restricting or extending the scope of a broader framework.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Lorentz symmetry is mathematically represented by the Lorentz group.
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.

For a fixed Minkowski vector space, the Poincaré group is the semidirect product of spacetime translations with the Lorentz group.
Apply a standard functorial or canonical construction whose output is not merely a reduct of the input and is not generally an equivalent presentation of the same object.
