What is double cover

In this article, we will talk about double cover.

We will not discuss about SU(2)SU(2), SO(3)SO(3) or spinors, as there are enough videos on YouTube on this topic; you may pick your preferred flavor of education and watch them.


Here’s what I get from guessing, without reading any literature:

structure DoubleCover α where
  add : α -> α -> α
  zero : α
  a_turn : α
  add_zero : (x : α) -> add x zero = x
  double_cover : add a_turn a_turn = zero

Writing Lean feels right at home.
