Student Lectures - All lectures - Lie Groups: Introduction to Lie Groups - Oxford Mathematics 4th Year Student Lecture

Lie Groups were introduced by the Norwegian mathematician Sophus Lie in the 19th Century and they have diverse applications from analysis to geometry to physics. This lecture, the first of two we are showing from Jason Lotay's fourth year undergraduate course, introduces Lie Groups with a focus on examples.

Third and fourth year lectures are followed by classes.
