Sl2(r) (Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 1985)Paperback - Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st 1985, 1 October 2011

SL2(R) gives the student an introduction to the infinite dimensional representation theory of semisimple Lie groups by concentrating on one example - SL2(r). The rapid development of representation theory over the past 40 years has made it increasingly difficult for a student to enter the field. This book makes the theory accessible to a wide audience, its only prerequisites being a knowledge of real analysis, and some differential equations.
