Finite Group Representations for the Pure Mathematician
by Peter Webb
Publisher: University of Minnesota 2007
Number of pages: 183
Description:
The book is intended to be used as a learning tool by people who do not know the subject, rather than as an encyclopaedic reference. The book's title is intended to indicate both breadth and limitations: it will probably not be very useful to most physicists or chemists, but it is intended to be appropriate for non-specialists in the area of representation theory, such as those whose primary interest is topology, combinatorics or number theory.
