Introduction to Lie Groups by Alistair Savage

Introduction to Lie Groups by Alistair Savage

Introduction to Lie Groups by Alistair Savage

This note focus on the so-called matrix Lie groups since this allows us to cover the most common examples of Lie groups in the most direct manner and with the minimum amount of background knowledge. Topics covered includes: Matrix Lie groups, Topology of Lie groups, Maximal tori and centres, Lie algebras and the exponential map, Covering groups.
