Eugene Wigner is one of the few giants of 20th-century physics. His
early work helped to shape quantum mechanics, he laid the
foundations of nuclear physics and nuclear engineering, and he
contributed significantly to solid-state physics. His philosophical
and political writings are widely known. All his works will be
reprinted in Eugene Paul Wigner's Collected Workstogether with
descriptive annotations by outstanding scientists. The present
volume begins with a short biographical sketch followed by Wigner's
papers on group theory, an extremely powerful tool he created for
theoretical quantum physics. They are presented in two parts. The
first, annotated by B. Judd, covers applications to atomic and
molecular spectra, term structure, time reversal and spin. In the
second, G. Mackey introduces to the reader the mathematical papers,
many of which are outstanding contributions to the theory of
unitary representations of groups, including the famous paper on
the Lorentz group.
