Peter Woit's free QT, Groups and Representations ebook

[Greg Bernhardt]

I finally have finished a draft version of the book that I’ve been working on for the past four years or so. This version will remain freely available on my website here. The plan is to get professional illustrations done and have the book published by Springer, presumably appearing in print sometime next year. By now it’s too late for any significant changes, but comments, especially corrections and typos, are welcome.

Enjoy!

This looks really comprehensive. Good reference!

Book draft of high quality. Works well with the ones by Carroll on GR, Teschl on mathematical methods of QM and the famous Kleinert books.

Surprisingly, he has even included a chapter on supersymmetry - which, by his own criterion, is not even wrong.

May it is not even wrong as a physics theory, but as mathematics it is perfectly fine.

Yes, even if superstring theory is not perfectly fine as mathematics.
