by F. J. Yndurain
Publisher: arXiv 2007
Number of pages: 65
Description:
The following notes are the basis for a graduate course. They are oriented towards the application of group theory to particle physics, although some of it can be used for general quantum mechanics. They have no pretense of mathematical rigor.

Galois Groups and Fundamental Groupsby David Meredith - San Francisco State University
This course brings together two areas of mathematics that each concern symmetry -- symmetry in algebra, in the case of Galois theory; and symmetry in geometry, in the case of fundamental groups. Prerequisites are courses in algebra and analysis.
