This is an introduction to Lie algebras and their applications in physics. The first three chapters show how Lie algebras arise naturally from symmetries of physical systems and illustrate through examples much of their general structure. Chapters 4 to 13 give a detailed introduction to Lie algebras and their representations, covering the Cartan-Weyl basis, simple and affine Lie algebras, real forms and Lie groups, the Weyl group, automorphisms, loop algebras and highest weight representations. Chapters 14 to 22 cover specific further topics, such as Verma modules, Casimirs, tensor products and Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, invariant tensors, subalgebras and branching rules, Young tableaux, spinors, Clifford algebras and supersymmetry, representations on function spaces, and Hopf algebras and representation rings. A detailed reference list is provided, and many exercises and examples throughout the book illustrate the use of Lie algebras in real physical problems. The text is written at a level accessible to graduate students, but will also provide a comprehensive reference for researchers.

閑來無事重讀發現真的是入門好書,引入數學時motivation很足不會像某些數學物理書一樣莫名其妙地長篇大論讓你懷疑人生不懂為毛要學這些想我為什麼不乾脆跑去學數學。隻是絕大多數人可能沒耐心讀作者完全物理的錶述語言。話說穿插著的discussion初讀的人肯定讀不懂,能讀懂的人又完全沒讀的必要,在沒學會畫鄧金圖前就能讀懂“閉的非退化的2-形式”“拉格朗日子流形的餘切叢”的人可能不是學物理的,不過也說不定..

評分這本書排版那叫一個差啊,內容還行,但是畢竟是做cft的人寫的,僅僅講瞭affine type,hyperbolic跟lorentzian type的沒有涉獵,這是這本書的遺憾。
評分李代數仿射李代數的入門教材,可以參考著看。
