Lectures on Lie Groups and Representations of Locally Compact Groupsby F. Bruhat - 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.
