Stiefel manifold

In mathematics, the Stiefel manifold is the set of all orthonormal k-frames in That is, it is the set of ordered orthonormal k-tuples of vectors in It is named after Swiss mathematician Eduard Stiefel. Likewise one can define the complex Stiefel manifold of orthonormal k-frames in and the quaternionic Stiefel manifold of orthonormal k-frames in . More generally, the construction applies to any real, complex, or quaternionic inner product space. In some contexts, a non-compact Stiefel manifold is defined as the set of all linearly independent k-frames in or this is homotopy equivalent, as the compact Stiefel manifold is a deformation retract of the non-compact one, by Gram–Schmidt. Statements about the non-compact form correspond to those for the compact form, replacing the orthogonal group (or unitary or symplectic group) with the general linear group. (Wikipedia).
