Lie's Third Theorem states that for any finite-dimensional Lie algebra, there exists a unique connected Lie group such that the Lie algebra is the tangent space at the identity element of the group. This theorem establishes a deep connection between Lie groups and Lie algebras, showing that every Lie algebra corresponds to a unique matrix Lie group, which can be studied through its properties and relationships.
