MP-AMM American Mathematical Differential Geometry Lie Groups and Symmetric Spaces
Presents an introduction to differential geometry. This book then introduces Lie groups and Lie algebras. It concludes with the classification of symmetric spaces by means of the Killing-Cartan classification of simple Lie algebras over $\mathbf{C}$ and Cartan's classification of simple Lie algebras over $\mathbf{R}$.

MP-AMM American Mathematical Groups and Geometric Analysis Integral Geometry Invariant Differential Operators and Spherical Functions
Group-theoretic methods have taken an increasingly prominent role in analysis. Some of this change has been due to the writings of Sigurdur Helgason. This book is an introduction to such methods on spaces with symmetry given by the action of a Lie group.
