Heisenberg group by 90°. The other reflections are "xyx" and "yxy", and rotation by 180° is "xyxy" (="yxyx"). The Lie algebra formula_16 of the Heisenberg group formula_1 (over the real numbers) is the space of formula_18 matrices of the form with formula_20. The following three elements form a basis for formula_16: The basis elements satisfy the commutation relations: The name "Heisenberg group" is motivated by the preceding relations, which have the same form as the canonical commutation relations in quantum mechanics: where formula_25 is the position operator, formula_26 is the momentum operator, and formula_27 is Planck's constant. The Heisenberg group formula_1 has
Werner Heisenberg Reich Research Council) out of the "Reichserziehungsministerium" (REM, Reich Ministry of Education) and started the formal German nuclear energy project under military auspices. The project had its first meeting on 16 September 1939. The meeting was organized by Kurt Diebner, advisor to the HWA, and held in Berlin. The invitees included Walther Bothe, Siegfried Flügge, Hans Geiger, Otto Hahn, Paul Harteck, Gerhard Hoffmann, Josef Mattauch and Georg Stetter. A second meeting was held soon thereafter and included Heisenberg, Klaus Clusius, Robert Döpel and Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker.
