Definitive treatment covers split semi-simple Lie algebras, universal enveloping algebras, classification of irreducible modules, automorphisms, simple Lie algebras over an arbitrary field, and more. Classic handbook for researchers and students; useable in graduate courses or for self-study.

A comprehensive and modern account of the structure and classification of Lie groups and finite-dimensional Lie algebras, by internationally known specialists in the field. This Encyclopaedia volume will be immensely useful to graduate students in differential geometry, algebra and theoretical physics.

The third, substantially revised edition of a monograph concerned with Kac-Moody algebras, a particular class of infinite-dimensional Lie albegras, and their representations, based on courses given over a number of years at MIT and in Paris. Suitable for graduate courses.
