Introduction to Group Theoryfor PhysicistsMarina von SteinkirchState University of New York at Stony 12, 20112 PrefaceThese notes started after a great course in Group Theory by Dr. Van Nieuwen-huizen [8] and were constructed mainly following Georgi s book [3], and otherclassical references. The purpose was merely educative. This book is madeby a graduate student to other graduate students. I had a lot of fun put-ing together my readings and calculations and I hope it can be useful forsomeone von Steinkirch,August of Finite Subgroups and Definitions .. Representations ..

The Cartan Matrix and Dynkin Diagrams .. Casimir Operators .. *Weyl Group .
2 2Hand the multiplication g 1g 2 2H;G, one has again the previous four group proprieties. For example, S 3 has Z 3 as a subgroup1. The trivial subgroups are the identity eand the group G. Cosets The right coset of the subgroup Hin Gis a set of elements formed by the action of Hon the left of a element of g2G, i.e. Hg. The left coset is gH.
