In particular, it is a summary overview of the theory of finite groups, a brief description of a manifold, and then an informal development of the theory of one-parameter Lie groups, especially as they apply to ordinary differential equations. The treatment is informal, but systematic and reasonably self-contained, as it assumes a familiarity with basic physics and applied calculus, but it does not assume additional mathematical training. Interested readers should have a fair chance of finding symmetries of a second order differential equation and should be able to use it to reduce the order of the differential equation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46491858436247,"sku":"9781681744483","price":4099.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781681744483.jpg?v=1766350748","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/lectures-on-selected-topics-in-mathematical-physics-introduction-to-lie-theory-with-applications-9781681744483","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
