Education facts
Code: 1MA332
This course is a natural continuation of Lie groups and focuses on the development of the algebraic counterpart of the theory. The course covers basic structure and representation theory of finite-dimensional Lie algebras, including the classification of simple Lie algebras using root systems, arguably, one of the most beautiful results of the 19th century. A must for all algebraically oriented students.
Entry requirements
120 credits including 90 credits Mathematic. Linear Algebra II. Modules and homological algebra taken. Proficiency in English equivalent to the Swedish upper secondary course English 6.
Education offerings
Each offering has its own dates and conditions. Closed offerings are retained as history and do not mean that a new application is open.
