Lie Groups : a problem-oriented introduction via matrix groups
Pollatsek, Harriet
Lie Groups : a problem-oriented introduction via matrix groups / Harriet Pollatsek - Washington, : Mathematical Association of America, ©2009. - xii, 177p. 24cm. - MAA textbooks. .
1. Symmetries of vector spaces --
2. Complex numbers, quaternions and geometry --
3. Linearization --
4. One-parameter subgroups and the exponential map --
5. Lie algebras --
6. Matrix groups over other fields.
This textbook is a complete introduction to Lie groups for undergraduate students. The only prerequisites are multi-variable calculus and linear algebra. It works on the principle that students learn best when they are actively engaged. To this end nearly 200 problems are contained in the text.
