Webbook light - seminars, lectures

  Webbook in 20 minutes: in honor of F. Dyson's 80th birthday
Predrag Cvitanović (Exceptional Magic, ``90th Statistical Mechanics Conference" Rutgers, Dec 14 2003 )
Essence of the webbook at a speed of lightning, in 32 overheads

  Birdtracks 2024 - The First 50 Years
Predrag Cvitanović (Birdtracks 2024) February 26 2024 )
The birdtracks methods have applications that reach across QCD, general relativity, differential geometry, lattice field theory, and representation theory. In this meeting experts from different fields explain the context in which they use birdtracks, why they use them, and what the special features, advantages, and disadvantages are in their particular context.

  Birdtracks for SU(N)
Stefan Keppeler (QCD Master Class 2017, Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer, France 18-24 June 2017 )
A gentle introduction to the birdtrack notation, Young projection operators, and their applications to QCD.

  The Special Unitary Group, Birdtracks, and Applications in QCD
Judith Alcock-Zeilinger (Eberhard Karls Universität Tübingen, SS 2018)
Currently the best 1-semester group theory course / manuscript that applies birdtracks techniques to Hermitian Young projection operators and irreps of SU(n).

  Color structure of SU(N) QCD
Predrag Cvitanović (QCD Master Class 2019, Saint-Jacut-de-la-Mer, France 17-21 June 2019)
An introductory birdtrack appreciation 10-hour course, but Stefan and Judith are hard acts to follow :)

  Webbook light, takeout version
Predrag Cvitanović (Georgia Tech Geometry Seminar, Nov 8 2002 )
A pedestrian summary of the webbook in the handwritten lecture notes format

  Webbook sung in 77 minutes, 23 seconds

  Group Algebras, Lie Algebras, and Clifford Algebras
Tony Kennedy (Moscow State University Colloquium, 1997)
On birdtracks and algebras, emphasis on classical groups, birdtrack versions of Young tableaux and spinors.

  Group Theory
Predrag Cvitanović (Georgia Tech PHYS 7143 course Spring 2019 )
An introductory course that covers much of group theory that is prerequsite to birdtrack appreciation
