21 The goal of the course is to give an overview of representation theory. It is intended for an audience with diverse mathematical interests. The subject is a blend of algebra, analysis, and geometry. All these different points of view are presented in the course. The case of finite groups is basic and I will discuss it in some detail as an example.
