内容简介

The book contains a comprehensive account of the structure and classification of Lie groups and finite-dimensional Lie algebras (including semisimple，solvable，and of general type). In particular，a modem approach to the description of automorphisms and gradings of semisimple Lie algebras is given. A special chapter is devoted to models of the exceptional Lie algebras. The book contains many tables and will serve as a reference. At the same time many results are accompanied by short proofs.
Onishchik and Vinberg are internationally known specialists in their field; they are also well known for their monograph“Lie Groups and Algebraic Groups”(Springer-Verlag 1990).
The book will be immensely useful to graduate students in differential geometry，algebra and theoretical physics.
