Discrete, Finite and Lie Groups : : Comprehensive Group Theory in Geometry and Analysis / / Pietro Giuseppe Fré.

In a self contained and exhaustive work the author covers Group Theory in its multifaceted aspects, treating its conceptual foundations in a proper logical order. First discrete and finite group theory, that includes the entire chemical-physical field of crystallography is developed self consistentl...
