Description:
The purpose of the lectures was to describe a factorial correspondence between the theory of admissible representations for a complex semisimple Lie group and the theory of highest weight modules for a semisimple Lie algebra. A detailed description of the main results of this correspondence is given in section one.

These are lectures on the symmetric group, the general linear group and invariant theory. The course covered as much of the classical theory as time allowed. The text requires some knowledge of rings and modules, character theory, affine varieties.

Representation theory studies symmetry in linear spaces. It is a beautiful mathematical subject which has many applications, ranging from number theory and combinatorics to geometry, probability theory, quantum mechanics and quantum field theory.

The book is intended to be used as a learning tool by people who do not know the subject. It is intended to be appropriate for non-specialists in the area of representation theory, such as those whose primary interest is topology or combinatorics.
