Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter III, § 3. Passage from a Lie group to its Lie algebra

The mapping t↦⟨t,f⟩t \mapsto \langle t, f \rangle is a morphism of the algebra T(∞)(G)\mathscr{T}^{(\infty)}(G) into the algebra AA.

It suffices to verify that, if tt and t′t' are point distributions on GG, then ⟨t∗t′,f⟩=⟨t,f⟩⟨t′,f⟩\langle t * t', f \rangle = \langle t, f \rangle \langle t', f \rangle. But

⟨t∗t′,f⟩=⟨t⊗t′,(g,g′)↦f(gg′)⟩=⟨t⊗t′,(g,g′)↦f(g)f(g′)⟩=⟨t,f⟩⟨t′,f⟩ \begin{align*} \langle t * t', f \rangle &= \langle t \otimes t', (g, g') \mapsto f(gg') \rangle \\ &= \langle t \otimes t', (g, g') \mapsto f(g)f(g') \rangle \\ &= \langle t, f \rangle \langle t', f \rangle \end{align*}
(Diff. & Anal. Man., R, 13.4.3).

The morphism of Proposition 33 is said to be associated with ff.

Take GG to be the group A∗A^* itself and ff to be the identity mapping ii of A∗A^*. We obtain a morphism, called canonical, of the algebra T(∞)(A∗)\mathscr{T}^{(\infty)}(A^*) into the algebra AA. The tangent space Te(A∗)T_e(A^*) is canonically identified with AA; and if t∈Te(A∗)t \in T_e(A^*), the definition of this identification is such that ⟨t,i⟩=t\langle t, i \rangle = t. Then Proposition 33 implies the following corollary:

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
