Topology and differential geometry -- pt. 2. Group theory and structure and representations of compact simple lie groups and algebras.This book presents a survey of Topology and Differential Geometry and also, Lie Groups and Algebras, and their Representations. The first topic is indispensable to students of gravitation and related areas of modern physics, (including string theory) while the second has applications in gauge theory and particle physics, integrable systems and nuclear physics. Part I provides a simple introduction to basic topology, followed by a survey of homotopy. Calculus of differentiable manifolds is then developed, and a Riemannian metric is introduced along with the key concepts of connections and curvaMathematical physicsMathematical physics.530530.15Mukhi Sunil1708611Mukunda N48676MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813750403321Lectures on advanced mathematical methods for physicists4097761UNINA
