Aims
The course introduce and develope the main rations and results in the theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. This theory is an important instrument in solving some problems in differential geometry and theoretical physics. The seminars cover by examples, applications, exercices and problems the theoretical materiale given at the course.
Content
1. Topological groups. Basic properties.
2. Classical groups.
3. Integration on compact groups.
4. Groups of transformations.
5. Lie groups.
6. Lie algebras of finite dimension
7. Nilpotent and rezoluble Lie algebras.
