Title Description
Georgi's Harvard lectures (he's taught physics there since 1980) discuss application of the theory of Lie Algebras and their representations to a wide variety of problems in particles physics and quantum mechanics. This edition has been expanded to include more extensive discussion of finite group theory and representations of the permutation group, as well as discussion of new subjects such as Dynkin indices, spontaneous symmetry breaking, lepton number as a fourth color, and the 27-dimensional representation of E(6).

Publisher's Note

Howard Georgi is the co-inventor (with Sheldon Glashow) of the SU(5) theory. This extensively revised and updated edition of his classic text makes the theory of Lie groups accessible to graduate students, while offering a perspective on the way in which knowledge of such groups can provide an insight into the development of unified theories of strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions.
