Written for use in teaching and for self-study, this book provides
a comprehensive and pedagogical introduction to groups, algebras,
geometry, and topology. It assimilates modern applications of these
concepts, assuming only an advanced undergraduate preparation in
physics. It provides a balanced view of group theory, Lie algebras,
and topological concepts, while emphasizing a broad range of modern
applications such as Lorentz and Poincare invariance, coherent
states, quantum phase transitions, the quantum Hall effect,
topological matter, and Chern numbers, among many others. An
example based approach is adopted from the outset, and the book
includes worked examples and informational boxes to illustrate and
expand on key concepts. 344 homework problems are included, with
full solutions available to instructors, and a subset of 172 of
these problems have full solutions available to students.
