Smoothness of the tangent adjoint action #
The differential of conjugation depends smoothly on the conjugating group element. Mathlib's smoothness theorem for manifold derivatives expresses the derivative in a moving chart frame. Since conjugation fixes the identity, this file cancels the resulting fixed tangent trivialization to recover the unframed tangent adjoint operator and its jointly smooth evaluation action.
