I've heard it said that the commutation relations of the generators of a Lie algebra determine the multiplication laws of the Lie group elements.
I would like to prove this statement for ##SO(3)##.
I know that the commutation relations are ##[J_{i},J_{j}]=i\epsilon_{ijk}J_{k}##.
Can you suggest a possible next step for showing how this can be used to determine the multiplication law for ##SO(3)##?
