Definitive treatment covers split semi-simple Lie algebras, universal enveloping algebras, classification of irreducible modules, automorphisms, simple Lie algebras over an arbitrary field, and more. Classic handbook for researchers and students; useable in graduate courses or for self-study.
Abstract Lie Algebras by David J Winter Solid but concise, this account emphasizes Lie algebra's simplicity of theory, offering new approaches to major theorems and extensive treatment of Cartan and related Lie subalgebras over arbitrary fields. 1972 edition.
Basic Algebra I: Second Edition by Nathan Jacobson A classic text and standard reference for a generation, this volume covers all undergraduate algebra topics, including groups, rings, modules, Galois theory, polynomials, linear algebra, and associative algebra. 1985 edition.
Semi-Simple Lie Algebras and Their Representations by Robert N. Cahn Designed to acquaint students of particle physics already familiar with SU(2) and SU(3) with techniques applicable to all simple Lie algebras, this text is especially suited to the study of grand unification theories. 1984 edition.
Lie Groups, Lie Algebras, and Some of Their Applications by Robert Gilmore This text introduces upper-level undergraduates to Lie group theory and physical applications. It further illustrates Lie group theory's role in several fields of physics. 1974 edition. Includes 75 figures and 17 tables, exercises and problems.
