An Elementary Introduction to Group Theory
by M. E. Charkani
Publisher: AMS 2018
Number of pages: 47
Description:
The theory of groups is a branch of mathematics in which we study the concept of binaryoperations. Group theory has many applications in physics and chemistry, and is potentially applicable in any situation characterized by symmetry. The classification of finite simple groups is a major mathematical achievement of the 20th century.

Algebraic Groups, Lie Groups, and their Arithmetic Subgroupsby J. S. Milne
This work is a modern exposition of the theory of algebraic group schemes, Lie groups, and their arithmetic subgroups. Algebraic groups are groups defined by polynomials. Those in this book can all be realized as groups of matrices.

Frobenius Splittings and B-Modulesby Wilberd van der Kallen - Springer
The course given by the author in 1992 explains the solution by O. Mathieu of some conjectures in the representation theory of arbitrary semisimple algebraic groups. The conjectures concern filtrations of 'standard' representations.
