Recent Advances in Lie Theory


406 p., soft cover, ISBN 3-88538-225-3, EUR 44.00, 2002

Lie Theory is known to play a crucial role in many fields of Mathematics and Physics. Apart from their obvious geometric and algebraic importance, Lie groups and Lie algebras have turned out to be of fundamental significance in Differential Equations, Quantum Mechanics, Algebraic Geometry, Topology and the Theory of Special Functions. The aim of this book is to provide the reader with a general view of recent research directions, represented in 23 articles, in most of these topics.
