Groups and their Representation
Lecture details
This lecture will be given by Professor Hassler.
Description:
- abstract groups
- matrix representation of groups
- character tables
- irreducible representations
- point groups
- reduction of tensor products
- selection rules
- real representation and time-reversal
- representation of Clifford algebras
Learning goal:
The students understand the notion of an irreducible representation of a finite group. They can reduce a general representation into the irreducible components. They are familiar with general selection rules and their importance in physical applications.
