Description: Representation theory for reductive groups is central to much of modern mathematics and mathematical physics. The methods employed are algebraic as well as analytic in nature, and the subject requires a broad knowledge of mathematics. Bringing together some of the deepest areas of the field today, this book will be of interest to students and researchers who wish to see some classical techniques that have proven to open up new avenues of research.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.
Main lectures from the European School of Group Theory held Aug. 15-26, 1994, in Sønderborg, Denmark.
