Book cover: Roots of a Compact Lie GroupRoots of a Compact Lie Group
by - 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.

Book cover: Lectures on Lie Groups and Representations of Locally Compact GroupsLectures on Lie Groups and Representations of Locally Compact Groups
by - Tata Institute of Fundamental Research ,
We consider some heterogeneous topics relating to Lie groups and the general theory of representations of locally compact groups. We have rigidly adhered to the analytic approach in establishing the relations between Lie groups and Lie algebras.

Book cover: Algebraic Groups, Lie Groups, and their Arithmetic SubgroupsAlgebraic Groups, Lie Groups, and their Arithmetic Subgroups
by ,
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.
