Representation Theory of Lie Groups - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series Author:M. F. Atiyah, R. Bott, S. Helgason, D. Kazhdan, B. Kostant, G. Lustztig Lie groups and their representations occupy an important place in mathematics with applications in such diverse fields as differential geometry, number theory, differential equations and physics. In 1977 a symposium was held in Oxford to introduce this rapidly developing and expanding subject to non-specialists. This volume contains the lectures... more » of ten distinguished mathematicians designed to provide the reader with a deeper understanding of the fundamental theory and appreciate the range of results. This volume contains much to interest mathematicians and theoretical physicists from advanced undergraduate level upwards.« less
