In mathematics, the Stiefel manifold V k is the set of all orthonormal k-frames in R n . That is, it is the set of ordered orthonormal k-tuples of vectors in R n . It is named after Swiss mathematician Eduard Stiefel. Likewise one can define the complex Stiefel manifold V k of orthonormal k-frames in C n and the quaternionic Stiefel manifold V k of orthonormal k-frames in H n . More generally, the construction applies to any real, complex, or quaternionic inner product space. In some contexts, a
