Rather than concentrating on theorems and proofs, the book shows the applications of the material to physical sciences and applied mathematics. Many examples of Lie groups and Lie algebras are given throughout the text. The relation between Lie group theory and algorithms for solving ordinary differential equations is presented and shown to be analogous to the relation between Galois groups and algorithms for solving polynomial equations. Other chapters are devoted to differential geometry, relativity, electrodynamics, and the hydrogen atom. Problems are given at the end of each chapter so readers can monitor their understanding of the materials. This is a fascinating introduction to Lie groups for graduate and undergraduate students in physics, mathematics and electrical engineering, as well as researchers in these fields.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 250mmItem Length: 184mmItem Width: 21mmItem Weight: 810gAuthor: Robert GilmoreGenre: Technology & EngineeringRelease Year: 2008 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
