Key data structure

The key data structure is the type corresponding to the Galilean group.

• is defined

Need

The Galilean group is used in newtonian and non-relativistic physics, it contains many of the usual transformations one may want to do on Space and Time.

• The API shall contain an instance of a Lie group on the type corresponding to the Galilean group.
• The API shall contain an inclusion from the group of rotations.
• The API shall contain an inclusions from the space-translation group.
• The API shall contain an inclusion from the time-translation group.
• The API shall be general for any dimension.
• The API shall contain an action on the type Time x Space.
