Description: Representation Theory of Lie Groups In 1977 a symposium was held in Oxford to introduce Lie groups and their representations to non-specialists. M. F. Atiyah (Author), R. Bott (Author), S. Helgason (Author), D. Kazhdan (Author), B. Kostant (Author), G. Lustztig (Author) 9780521226363, Cambridge University Press Paperback / softback, published 31 January 1980 348 pages 22.9 x 15.2 x 2 cm, 0.51 kg Lie groups and their representations occupy an important place in mathematics with applications in such diverse fields as differential geometry, number theory, differential equations and physics. In 1977 a symposium was held in Oxford to introduce this rapidly developing and expanding subject to non-specialists. This volume contains the lectures of ten distinguished mathematicians designed to provide the reader with a deeper understanding of the fundamental theory and appreciate the range of results. This volume contains much to interest mathematicians and theoretical physicists from advanced undergraduate level upwards. 1. Introduction M. F. Atiyah Part I. 2.
