At #JuliaCOn2025 @ronnybergmann.net gave a talk about LieGroups.jl. That is now available online #julialang #manifolds #LieGroups

E₈: the Mount Everest of symmetry.
A 248-dimensional Lie group so rich it could unify all particles in string theory.
Elegant, exceptional, and explosive in math & physics.
The universe might just be written in E₈.
#E8 #LieGroups #StringTheory #Mathematics
A Lie group is a symmetry that’s smooth.
Rotate, shift, gauge—no jumps, just flow.
It’s the math behind conservation laws and force unification.
Think SU(3), SU(2), U(1)—where physics meets elegance.

A very nice article about the history of Lie groups, Lie algebras and life of Sophus Lie.
Found it useful to understand the definitions of Lie Algebra and Lie group.
