Abstract

New formulas for the characters of irreducible representations of simple groups are presented. They yield the character directly as a sum instead of a quotient as does Weyl's formula. The procedure is purely geometrical and is based on the properties of the regular lattice associated with every simple group in the ``global'' theory of Lie groups due to Hopf and Stiefel.
