Describing many of the most important aspects of Lie group theory,
this book presents the subject in a 'hands on' way. 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.
