Representation theory is an important part of modern mathematics, not only as a subject in its own right but also as a tool for many applications. It provides a means for exploiting symmetry, making it particularly useful in number theory, algebraic geometry, and differential geometry, as well as classical and modern physics.
The goal of this book is to present, in a motivated manner, the basic formalism of representation theory as well as some important applications. The style is intended to allow the reader to gain access to the insights and ideas of representation theory--not only to verify that ... Read more

Reviews for Introduction To The Representation Theor
It is a good book: it's very useful and well-written. What with exercises scattered throughout, as well as examples and to-the-point remarks, it was clearly crafted with the student in mind." - MAA Reviews
