Lecture Notes in Lie Groups
by Vladimir G. Ivancevic, Tijana T. Ivancevic
Publisher: arXiv 2011
Number of pages: 74
Description:
These lecture notes in Lie Groups are designed for a 1-semester third year or graduate course in mathematics, physics, engineering, chemistry or biology. We give both physical and medical examples of Lie groups. The only necessary background for comprehensive reading of these notes are advanced calculus and linear algebra.

Roots of a Compact Lie Groupby Kristopher Tapp - arXiv
This expository article introduces the topic of roots in a compact Lie group. Compared to the many other treatments of this standard topic, I intended for mine to be relatively elementary, example-driven, and free of unnecessary abstractions.
