About this product
Product Information
Here is a self-contained introduction to quantum groups as algebraic objects. Based on the author's lecture notes for the Part III pure mathematics course at Cambridge University, the book is suitable as a primary text for graduate courses in quantum groups or supplementary reading for modern courses in advanced algebra. The material assumes knowledge of basic and linear algebra. Some familiarity with semisimple Lie algebras would also be helpful. The volume is a primer for mathematicians but it will also be useful for mathematical physicists.

Reviews
'Many intuitive comments and informal remarks, a well chosen set of main examples used systematically in the book and a clear and understandable style make the book very comfortable and useful for students as well as for mathematicians from other fields.' EMS Newsletter, 'This monograph is an excellent reference (and often a true 'eye-opener') for researchers working in quantum groups … S. Majid is well-known for his lively and very informative style of writing, and the reviewed book confirms this opinion. Thus the book is very well written, the proofs contain enough details to make them easily readable but still challenging enough to keep students interested … I can full-heartily recommend this work as a basis for a one-term postgraduate course or as an introductory text to all mathematicians who would like to learn quickly the main ideas, techniques and wide range of applications of quantum group theory.'
