I am not really sure whether this topic belongs here or not, but since my example will be a certain one I will proceed here...
Someone please explain me what "isomorphism" means physically? For example what is the deal in saying that the proper orthochronous Lorentz group is isomorphic to SU(2)xSU(2)?
I can understand as far that this example breaks everything in left-right handed movers, but I just can't generalize it in everything when we are talking about isomorphisms...
