MATH 650: Lie Groups (Fall 2007)

Instructor: Birgit Speh

Meeting Time & Room

Lie groups and Lie algebras have applications to many areas of mathematics, for example to analysis, geometry, dynamical systems and combinatorics as well as to physics. Some of these connections will be discussed in the "Lie days" on the first weekend in September.

The course will give an introduction to Lie groups, discuss their relationship with Lie algebras and their representations with a particular emphasis on the classical groups.
