The finite simple groups The finite simple groups Robert Wilson "The finite simple groups are the building blocks from which all the finite groups are made and as such they are objects of fundamental importance throughout mathematics. The classification of the fi… OL16260911W
Notes on Coxeter transformations and the McKay correspondence Notes on Coxeter transformations and the McKay correspondence R. Stekolshchik One of the beautiful results in the representation theory of the finite groups is McKay's theorem on a correspondence between representations of the binary polyhedral group of SU(2) and vertices of a… OL16595635W
Sphere packings, lattices, and groups Sphere packings, lattices, and groups John Horton Conway,Neil J. A. Sloane This book is an exposition of the mathematics arising from the theory of sphere packings. Considerable progress has been made on the basic problems in the field, and the most recent research is prese… OL1914189W
Applied Finite Group Actions Applied Finite Group Actions Adalbert Kerber The topic of this book is finite group actions and their use in order to approach finite unlabeled structures by defining them as orbits of finite groups of sets. Well-known examples are graphs, line… OL19827287W
Representations of finite and Lie groups Representations of finite and Lie groups C. B. Thomas This book provides an introduction to representations of both finiteand compact groups. The proofs of the basic results are given for thefinite case, but are so phrased as to hold without change for … OL19899612W
