A general principle, discovered by Robert Langlands and named by him the "e;functoriality principle,"e; predicts relations between automorphic forms on arithmetic subgroups of different reductive groups.
Part exposition and part presentation of new results, this monograph deals with that area of mathematics which has both combinatorial group theory and mathematical logic in common.
In this book Professor Lusztig solves an interesting problem by entirely new methods: specifically, the use of cohomology of buildings and related complexes.
Geometric group theory is the study of the interplay between groups and the spaces they act on, and has its roots in the works of Henri Poincare, Felix Klein, J.
In this volume, the author covers profinite groups and their cohomology, Galois cohomology, and local class field theory, and concludes with a treatment of duality.
Based on a series of lectures given by Harish-Chandra at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1971-1973, this book provides an introduction to the theory of harmonic analysis on reductive p-adic groups.
This famous book was the first treatise on Lie groups in which a modern point of view was adopted systematically, namely, that a continuous group can be regarded as a global object.
In this renowned volume, Hermann Weyl discusses the symmetric, full linear, orthogonal, and symplectic groups and determines their different invariants and representations.
In The Structure of Affine Buildings, Richard Weiss gives a detailed presentation of the complete proof of the classification of Bruhat-Tits buildings first completed by Jacques Tits in 1986.
A step-by-step illustrated introduction to the astounding mathematics of symmetryThis lavishly illustrated book provides a hands-on, step-by-step introduction to the intriguing mathematics of symmetry.
In this book, Claire Voisin provides an introduction to algebraic cycles on complex algebraic varieties, to the major conjectures relating them to cohomology, and even more precisely to Hodge structures on cohomology.
Basándose en su amplia experiencia en el dictado de cursos avanzados de Álgebra para la carrera de Matemáticas, los autores han escogido temas que se derivan de resultados clásicos fundamentales debidos a Abel y Galois, pero incluyen, para beneficio del lector, otros tópicos en cuya creación participaron Newton, Lagrange, Gauss, Dedekind, Artin y Hilbert.
En cierta forma se puede considerar este libro como prolongación del curso del mismo autor Lecciones de Álgebra moderna, publicado por esta Editorial, y lo que de él se dice es aplicable a éste.

An authoritative, full-year course on both group theory and ordinary character theory--essential tools for mathematics and the physical sciences One of the few treatments available combining both group theory and character theory, Groups and Characters is an effective general textbook on these two fundamentally connected subjects.
The p-adic Simpson correspondence, recently initiated by Gerd Faltings, aims at describing all p-adic representations of the fundamental group of a proper smooth variety over a p-adic field in terms of linear algebra-namely Higgs bundles.
This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date introduction to Hodge theory-one of the central and most vibrant areas of contemporary mathematics-from leading specialists on the subject.
The book, suitable as both an introductory reference and as a text book in the rapidly growing field of topological graph theory, models both maps (as in map-coloring problems) and groups by means of graph imbeddings on sufaces.
