Description
Springer Groups and Symmetries From Finite Groups to Lie Groups by Yvette Kosmann-Schwarzbach, Stephanie Frank Singer
- Combines material from many areas of mathematics, including algebra, geometry, and analysis, so students see connections between these areas_x000D__x000D__x000D_- Applies material to physics so students appreciate the applications of abstract mathematics_x000D__x000D__x000D_- Assumes only linear algebra and calculus, making an advanced subject accessible to undergraduates_x000D__x000D__x000D_- Includes 142 exercises, many with hints or complete solutions, so text may be used in the classroom or for self study_x000D_ Table of contents :- _x000D_
