http://schema.org/description

  • "As a text for those new to the area, this book provides an introduction to the structure and finite-dimensional representation theory of the complex classical groups that requires only an abstract algebra course as a prerequisite. It makes abundant use of examples and more than 300 exercises (most with hints for solution) to explain concepts such as root systems, Weyl groups, and highest weight theory. For the more advanced reader, the book presents an introduction to the structure and representations of complex reductive algebraic groups and their compact real forms. It also serves as a reference for the main results concerning tensor and polynomial invariants and the finite dimensional representation theory of the classical groups."
