Lie Groups and Lie Algebras (Gang Xu @ PSI 2013)

4 lectures on Lie groups and Lie algebras (with a particular focus on physics) given by Gang Xu, a PSI Fellow, at the 2014-2015 PSI. The first lecture provides an introduction to the subject, going through the motivation and basic examples/properties.
If you're having trouble seeing the board at any point in the lectures, you can check out this pdf with snapshots of the board -- one shot for each change that occurs:
