In the attached paper by Francois Leyvraz, I could not get past eqs.(6-7b) for the following reason: if you differentiate eq.(5) with respect to t, you obtain R(dot) super T times R + R super T times R(dot) = 0 , or, using nomenclature from the paper, Omega sub b + R(dot) super T times R = 0. Omega sub l does not appear. Moreover, if R is antisymmetric (as it must be), that does not imply that R(dot) is also antisymmetric. The product of any matrix with an antisymmetric one does not have to be antisymmetric...
