The contents are mainly of mathematical nature, but each topic is introduced by historical information and enriched with motivations from high energy physics, which help the reader in getting a deeper comprehension of the subject.
1 Finite Groups and Lie Algebras
2 Isometries and the Geometry of COSET Manifolds
3 Complex and Quaternionic Geometry
4 Special Geometries
5 Solvable Algebras and the TITS Satake Projection
6 Black Holes and Nilpotent Orbits
7 E7, F4 and supergravitiy scalar potentials
8 (Hyper)Kaehler Quotients, Ale-Manifolds and Cn/Γ Singularities
9 Epilogue
10 The Bibliography
A graduate level text for students and young researchers with interests in the applications of differential geometry to mathematical physics
A useful reference that connects the topics of differential geometry and Lie group algebra to high energy physics research problems
Enriched with historical introductions to all chapters
