Lie Groups, Lie Algebras, and Representations (Brian Hall)

Series: Mathematics & Science

Lie Groups, Lie Algebras, and Representations: An Elementary Introduction — Brian C. Hall

Brian Hall introduces Lie groups, Lie algebras, and their representations.

Matrix groups provide a concrete starting point for the general theory.

The book explains how group structure connects with its infinitesimal algebraic description.

Examples such as SU(2) and SU(3) prepare readers for broader representation-theoretic results.

The material links continuous symmetry with topics used in mathematics and physics.
