``Classical groups'', named so by Hermann Weyl, are groups of matrices or quotients of matrix groups by small normal subgroups. Thus the story begins, as Weyl suggested, with ``Her All-embracing Majesty'', the general linear group $GL_n(V)$ of all invertible linear transformatio…
A graduate-level text on the classical groups: groups of matrices, or (more often) quotients of matrix groups by small normal subgroups. It pulls together into a single source the basic facts about classical groups defined over fields, together with the required geometrical back…
