The identity slice chart of a closed subgroup #
For a closed subgroup of a finite-dimensional Lie group, the complementary exponential-product
map is a local chart at the identity. The local Cartan membership criterion and the transverse
separation lemma identify the subgroup in this chart with the zero-complement slice, whose
tangential factor is the Lie algebra that TauCeti.Lie.lieSubalgebraOfSubgroup assigns to the
subgroup. Translating this identity chart gives the corresponding local models at other subgroup
points.
The complement, transverse separation radius, and local product chart are supplied by
TauCeti.Lie.exists_complement_data_of_isClosed_subgroup.
Main results #
TauCeti.Lie.exists_isSliceChart_of_isClosed_subgrouppackages the identity slice chart.
The resulting chart retains the smoothness of both directions of the local diffeomorphism. A separate construction installs the induced manifold structure on the subgroup subtype.

A closed subgroup is the zero-complement slice in a smooth complementary exponential chart
at 1, the tangential factor of the chart being its Lie algebra.
