Accessible to advanced undergraduates in mathematics and physics as well as beginning graduate students, the text deals with the theory of representations of finite groups, compact groups, linear Lie groups and their Lie algebras, concisely and in one volume. Prerequisites include calculus and linear algebra. This new edition contains an additional chapter that deals with Clifford algebras, spin groups, and the theory of spinors, as well as new sections entitled "Topics in history" comprising notes on the history of the material treated within each chapter. (Taken together, they constitute an account of the development of the theory of groups from its inception in the 18th century to the mid-20th.) References for additional resources and further study are provided in each chapter. All chapters end with exercises of varying degree of difficulty, some of which introduce new definitions and results. The text concludes with a collection of problems with complete solutions making it ideal for both course work and independent study. Key Topics include: Brisk review of the basic definitions of group theory, with examples Representation theory of finite groups: character theory Representations of compact groups using the Haar measure Lie algebras and linear Lie groups Detailed study of SO(3) and SU(2), and their representations Spherical harmonics Representations of SU(3), roots and weights, with quark theory as a consequence of the mathematical properties of this symmetry group Spin groups and spinors. 001448375 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001448375 650_0 $$aRepresentations of groups. 001448375 650_0 $$aFinite groups. 001448375 650_0 $$aLie groups. 001448375 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001448375 7001_ $$aSinger, Stephanie Frank,$$d1964-$$etranslator.$$1https://isni.org/isni/0000000110077368 001448375 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKosmann-Schwarzbach, Yvette, 1941-$$tGroups and symmetries.$$bSecond edition.$$dCham : Springer, 2022$$z9783030943592$$w(OCoLC)1295134981 001448375 830_0 $$aUniversitext. 001448375 852__ $$bebk 001448375 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-94360-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001448375 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1448375$$pGLOBAL_SET 001448375 980__ $$aBIB 001448375 980__ $$aEBOOK 001448375 982__ $$aEbook 001448375 983__ $$aOnline 001448375 994__ $$a92$$bISE
