i find here a representation of the Lorentz algebra.
Starting from the matrix representation (with the ##\lambda## parameter) i see
how one gets the matrix form of ##iJ_z##
I am less comfortable with the ## -i y\partial_x + x \partial_y## notation
Where does it come from? They say that it is a killing vector on ##R^4##
I suppose that this is basic but as i read it in a physics paper i have not the complete background.
