Description for Linear Representations of Groups
Paperback. This book presents a comprehensive and detailed exposition of the fundamentals of the representation theory of groups, especially of finite groups and compact groups. The exposition is based on the decomposition of the two-sided regular representation. Translator(s): Iacob, Andrei. Series: Modern Birkhauser Classics. Num Pages: 152 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 8. Weight in Grams: 229.
This book gives an exposition of the fundamentals of the theory of linear representations of ?nite and compact groups, as well as elements of the t- ory of linear representations of Lie groups. As an application we derive the Laplace spherical functions. The book is based on lectures that I delivered in the framework of the experimental program at the Mathematics-Mechanics Faculty of Moscow State University and at the Faculty of Professional Skill Improvement. My aim has been to give as simple and detailed an account as possible of the problems considered. The book therefore makes no claim to completeness. ... Read more

Reviews for Linear Representations of Groups
From the reviews: “Vinberg’s book should be seen as preliminary to far more ambitious and weighty texts … . It takes the reader from raw basics, done very nicely, through the obligatory discussion of the regular representation … to some excellent stuff on SU2 and SO3, with a discussion of Laplace’s spherical functions thrown in. The presence of a ... Read more
