An Introduction to Lie Group Integrators
by E. Celledoni, H. Marthinsen, B. Owren
Publisher: arXiv 2012
Number of pages: 28
Description:
We give a short and elementary introduction to Lie group methods. A selection of applications of Lie group integrators are discussed. Finally, a family of symplectic integrators on cotangent bundles of Lie groups is presented and the notion of discrete gradient methods is generalised to Lie groups.

Roots of a Compact Lie Groupby Kristopher Tapp - arXiv
This expository article introduces the topic of roots in a compact Lie group. Compared to the many other treatments of this standard topic, I intended for mine to be relatively elementary, example-driven, and free of unnecessary abstractions.
