-The diagram below shows the defining representation of $Sp(1)$ in its upper branch and the (3-dimensional) adjoint ​ representation of the same group in the lower branch. The latter representation can be used to rotate objects in 3D space and has applications in computer graphics. For a more detailed explanation of this diagram and representations of other Lie groups see [[https://​esackinger.wordpress.com/​blog/lie-groups-and-their-representations/#sp1_quaternion|Fun with Symmetry]].+The diagram below shows the defining representation of $Sp(1)$ in its upper branch and the (3-dimensional) adjoint ​ representation of the same group in the lower branch.
