“Lie Algebras, following Humphreys”

This is the first of a series of weekly meetings for a class on Lie algebras, following the book by J.E. Humphreys. For the first meeting, Lie algebras will be introduced with examples and we will possibly tread into solvable algebras. Since we’re starting at ground zero, the class should be accessible to anyone. All are welcome!
