xii, 177p. 24cm. 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. 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. / Harriet Pollatsek Mathematics Algebra Lie groups Lie groups -- Problems, exercises Matrix groups Mathematics -- Algebra -- Intermediate Lie-Gruppe 512.482 POL 9789393330185 :Donated from NBHM 220623 20220623122828.0
