Description

---

This book presents a new and innovative approach to Lie groups and differential geometry. Rather than compiling and reviewing the existing material on this classical subject, Professor Ortacgil instead questions the foundations of the subject, and proposes a new direction.

Aimed at the curious and courageous mathematician, this book aims to provoke further debate and inspire further development of this original research.
