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 actively engaged. To this end, nearly 200 problems are contained in the text.
This textbook is a complete introduction to Lie groups for undergraduate students. The only prerequisites are multi-variable calculus and linear algebra. The emphasis is placed on the algebraic ideas, with just enough analysis to define the tangent space and the differential and to make sense of the exponential map. This textbook works on the principle that students learn best when actively engaged. To this end, nearly 200 problems are included in the text, ranging from routine to challenging. Every chapter has a section called “Putting the pieces together”, in which all definitions and results are collected for reference, and further reading is suggested.
