Under construction. This area is a framework being built: most courses have no teaching material yet, and things may change or break. Private self-study. Not an official programme and not recognised by any ministry or school. No qualification, mark or document is issued, and “years 1 to 3” and “advanced” are names of study paths only.

Concept-level units

Units follow the syllabus order, as a recommended sequence rather than a gate.

  1. Representations and characters
  2. Complete reducibility
  3. Group algebras
  4. Tensor constructions
  5. Examples and computations
  6. Connections to symmetry

Assessable outcome

Decompose elementary representations and justify character calculations.

Assessment design

  • deeper problem sets
  • reconstruction of an unfamiliar argument
  • advanced source reading
  • cumulative examination or substantial project

cumulative; uses spaced retrieval
