This second edition differs mainly in the addition of three new appendices: C, D, and E. Appendices C and D are applications of the elements of representation theory of compact Lie groups. Appendix C deals with applications to the flavored quark model that revolutionized particle physics. We illustrate how certain observed mesons (pions, kaons, and etas) are described in terms of quarks and how one can "derive" the mass formula of GellMann/ Okubo of 1 962. This can be read after Section 20.3b. Appendix D is concerned with isotropic hyperelastic bodies. Here the main result has been used by engineers since the 1 850s. My purpose for presenting proofs is that the hypotheses of the Frobenius-Schur theorems of group representations are exactly met here, and so this affords a compelling excuse for developing representation theory, which had not been addressed in the earlier edition. An added bonus is that the group theoretical material is applied to the three-dimensional rotation group SO(3 ) , where these generalities can be pictured explicitly. This material can essentially be read after Appendix A, but some brief excursion into Appendix C might be helpful.
