Rebecca S. Torrey (Section 01)
In mathematics, a group is a mathematical structure that is commonly found in nature, particularly in the context of symmetries of a physical system. In Representation Theory we study groups via something very concrete: matrices. This rich subject has applications to chemistry, physics, and almost every branch of mathematics. In this course we will learn enough of the fundamentals to explore some applications to molecular vibrations.
