Abstract:

In this article, we start by a review of the circle group?\"\" [1] and its topology induced [1] by the quotient metric, which we later use to define a topological structure on the unit circle \"\". Using points on?\"\" under the complex exponential map, we can construct orthogonal projection operators. We will show that under this construction, we arrive at a topological group, denoted?\"\" of projection matrices. Together with the induced topology, it will be demonstrated that?\"\" is Hausdorff and Second Countable forming a topological manifold. Moreover, I will use an example of a group action on?\"\" to generate subgroups of?\"\".
