	Claude Chevalley Summary
		Chevalley was born in Johannesberg, Transvaal, South Africa, in 1909, the son of Abel and Marguerite Chevalley—authors of the Oxford Concise French Dictionary.
		Claude Chevalley (11 February 1909 - 28 June 1984) was a French mathematician with an austere style based on abstract algebra.
		Chevalley in the 1950s led some Paris seminars (working groups) of major importance: the Séminaire Cartan-Chevalley of the academic year 1955/6, with Henri Cartan, and the Séminaire Chevalley of 1956/7 and 1957/8.

	Chevalley biography
		Chevalley's theorem was important in applications made in 1954 to quasi-algebraically closed fields and applications made the following year to algebraic groups.
		Chevalley also published Theory of Distributions (1951), Introduction to the theory of algebraic functions of one variable (1951), The algebraic theory of spinors (1954), Class field theory (1954), The construction and study of certain important algebras (1955), Fundamental concepts of algebra (1956) and Foundations of algebraic geometry (1958).
		Chevalley was elected a member of the London Mathematical Society in 1967.

	PlanetMath: Bourbaki, Nicolas
		The suggestion of writing this treatise spread and very soon a loose circle of friends, including Henri Cartan, André Weil, Jean Delsarte, Jean Dieudonné and Claude Chevalley began meeting regularly at the Capoulade, a café in the Latin quarter of Paris to plan it.
		The idea was to simply write another textbook to replace Goursat's.[GD] After many discussions over what to include in their treatise they finally came to the conclusion that they needed to start from scratch and present all of essential mathematics from beginning to end.
		André Weil, Claude Chevalley, Jean Dieudonné, Henri Cartan and Jean Delsarte were among the few present at these first meetings, they were all active members of Bourbaki until their retirements.

	Theory of Lie Groups by Claude C. Chevalley
		This famous book was the first treatise on Lie groups in which a modern point of view was adopted systematically, namely, that a continuous group can be regarded as a global object.
		To develop this idea to its fullest extent, Chevalley incorporated a broad range of topics, such as the covering spaces of topological spaces, analytic manifolds, integration of complete systems of differential equations on a manifold, and the calculus of exterior differential forms.

		When "Chevalley" stands at his "Chevalet" it is difficult to know where the artist ends and his easel begins.
		One understands without difficulty that his finished paintings reflect a natural ability to recreate light and form in a style sometimes reminiscent of the masters he studied: Bonnard, Balthus and Chardin.
		By 1995, Chevalley's illustrious career was noticed by Prince Rainier, who invited Chevalley to become the "Official Artist" of Monaco.

		The founding members of the Bourbaki movement, or membres fondateurs, were Henri Cartan, Claude Chevalley (also writen as Chevallier), Jean Dieudonne, Jean Deslarte, and Andre Weil.
		Chevalley did not cover as many fields as his aforementioned cohorts, yet he worked deeply in the area of algebraic geometry and algebraic number theory.
		Dieudonne was sometimes referred to as the chief scribe of Bourbaki's works and it is his personality that is greatly emmited from Bourbakis work.

		by Claude Chevalley "Chapter I introduces the classical linear groups whose study is one of the main objects of Lie group theory..." (more)
		Unfortunately, the writing style has become a bit "dated" (this was written in the early forties!).
		Of course, that doesn't mean Chevalley's book has become useless, but for the first reading, I would recommend Adams' book (Benjamin / Addison Wesley?) instead.

		However, it seemed that no Columbia math or physics prof could tell me anything about Clifford Algebra.
		But then I was told that the French-American mathematician, Claude Chevalley, was writing a paper on Clifford Algebra.
		However, when I innocently asked about "an elementary introduction to Clifford Algebra", Chevalley began spluttering and almost had an "attack".
