Prerequisites (in Czech)
Structure theory of complex semisimple Lie algebras, at least as presented in the lecture notes at www.math.muni.cz/~slovak.
Course Enrolment Limitations
The course is also offered to the students of the fields other than those the course is directly associated with.
fields of study / plans the course is directly associated with
Course objectives (in Czech)
The lectures will present basic information on the structure theory of real forms of semisimple Lie algebras and their (real) representations. This is usually hard to find in standard textboooks on representation theory, but very useful for numerous applications. The lectures will be addressed to graduate students in differential geometry and physics with reasonable knowledge of the more standard complex theory.
Assessment methods (in Czech)
Advanced courses for graduate students. Oral exam will check basic understanding of the topics.
Language of instruction
English
Further comments (probably available only in Czech)
Information on completion of the course: první termín zkousky bude vypsán před odjezdem A. Onishchika, opravný bude zkoušen zástupcem
The course can also be completed outside the examination period.
The course is taught only once.
Note related to how often the course is taught: po šest týdnů v semestru, přednáší hostující profesor, Arkadiy Onishchik.
