Item Description:Lecture 1 Linear Groups and Linear Representations; 1. Basic Concepts and Definitions; 2. A Brief Overview; 3. Compact Groups, Haar Integral and the Averaging Method; 4. Frobenius-Schur Orthogonality and the Character Theory; 5. Classification of Irreducible Complex Representations of S3; 6. L2(G) and Concluding Remarks; Lecture 2 Lie Groups and Lie Algebras; 1. One-parameter Subgroups and Lie Algebras; 2. Lie Subgroups and the Fundamental Theorem of Lie; 3. Lie Homomorphisms and Simply Connected Lie Groups; 4. Adjoint Actions and Adjoint Representations
This invaluable book provides a concise and systematic introduction to the theory of compact connected Lie groups and their representations, as well as a complete presentation of the structure and classification theory. It uses a non-traditional approach and organization. There is a proper balance between, and a natural combination of, the algebraic and geometric aspects of Lie theory, not only in technical proofs but also in conceptual viewpoints
