Course Description:
This course will study the essential tools necessary for extending analysis to curved spaces via Lie Groups and Lie Algebras. The classical matrix groups and their associated algebras will be presented, introducing these in a concrete way as groups of rotations and then generalizing to more complex spaces Complex numbers and the quaternions will be also be introduced. |
