Description

Theory of Groups for Physics Applications. Instructor: Prof. Urjit A. Yajnik, Department of Physics, IIT Bombay.

Group Theory is the mathematics of symmetry. It is used extensively in quantum theory. There are applications to molecular structure, spectroscopy, crystal structure and to elementary particle physics. (from nptel.ac.in)
