Description for Lie Groups and Algebras with Applications to Physics, Geometry, and Mechanics (Applied Mathematical Sciences)
Hardcover. A text on Lie groups and algebras and their roles in diverse areas of pure and applied mathematics and physics. It includes examples that illustrate the role of Lie groups and algebras in various fields of mathematics and physics: elementary particle physics, Riemannian geometry, completely integrable systems, and bifurcation theory. Series: Applied Mathematical Sciences. Num Pages: 228 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 14. Weight in Grams: 1110.
This book is intended as an introductory text on the subject of Lie groups and algebras and their role in various fields of mathematics and physics. It is written by and for researchers who are primarily analysts or physicists, not algebraists or geometers. Not that we have eschewed the algebraic and geo- metric developments. But we wanted to present them in a concrete way and to show how the subject interacted with physics, geometry, and mechanics. These interactions are, of course, manifold; we have discussed many of them here-in particular, Riemannian geometry, elementary particle physics, sym- metries of differential equations, ... Read more
