Connections to Other Branches of Mathematics

  • analysis (e.g. harmonic analysis and the Peter-Weyl theorem)
  • algebraic topology (e.g. principal bundles and characteristic classes)
  • algebraic geometry (e.g. algebraic groups and flag varieties)
  • combinatorics (e.g. root systems and Coxeter groups)
  • differential geometry (e.g. connections and Chern-Weil theory)
  • number theory (e.g. automorphic forms and the Langlands program)
  • low-dimensional topology (e.g. quantum groups and Chern-Simons theory)
  • Riemannian geometry (e.g. holonomy and symmetric spaces)
  • finite group theory (e.g. the finite simple groups of Lie type)
