Poincare Group
Linked via "commutation relations"
Four generators of translations: $P^\mu$.
The full set of ten generators satisfies the commutation relations of the Poincaré algebra $\mathfrak{p}(3, 1)$. These relations define the algebraic structure:
Lorentz subalgebra commutators: The commutation relations among the Lorentz generators reproduce the Lie algebra of the Lorentz group, $\mathfrak{so}(3, 1)$: -

Weak Isospin
Linked via "commutation relations"
Within the $SU(2)L$ framework, particles transform under irreducible representations of the group. States belonging to a doublet (descriptor)/) (e.g., an up-type quark and a down-type quark) share the same weak hypercharge $Y$ but differ in their $I3$ eigenvalues.
The weak isospin operator $\mathbf{I}$ generates rotations in the weak isospin space. Its components satisfy the standard commutation relations:
$$[Ii, Ij] = i \epsilon{ijk} Ik$$
where $i, j, k \in \{1, 2…
