This book provides a self-contained overview of the role of
conformal groups in geometry and mathematical physics. It features
a careful development of the material, from the basics of Clifford
algebras to more advanced topics. Each chapter covers a specific
aspect of conformal groups and conformal spin geometry. All major
concepts are introduced and followed by detailed descriptions and
definitions, and a comprehensive bibliography and index round out
the work.
Rich in exercises that are accompanied by full proofs and many
hints, the book will be ideal as a course text or self-study volume
for senior undergraduates and graduate students.
