Differing from many mathematics texts, this one emphasizes the mathematical concepts underlying manifold physical phenomena. Readers get both the knowledge required in applications, and also the minimum "mathematical skills" necessary in the study of physics.
Due to the rapid expansion of the frontiers of physics and engineering, the demand for higher-level mathematics is increasing yearly. This book is designed to provide accessible knowledge of higher-level mathematics demanded in contemporary physics and engineering. Rigorous mathematical structures of important subjects in these fields are fully covered, which will be helpful for readers to become acquainted with certain abstract mathematical concepts. The selected topics are:
This book is essentially self-contained, and assumes only standard undergraduate preparation such as elementary calculus and linear algebra. It is thus well suited for graduate students in physics and engineering who are interested in theoretical backgrounds of their own fields. Further, it will also be useful for mathematics students who want to understand how certain abstract concepts in mathematics are applied in a practical situation. The readers will not only acquire basic knowledge toward higher-level mathematics, but also imbibe mathematical skills necessary for contemporary studies of their own fields.
Includes the latest developments in physics- and engineering-oriented higher mathematics, such as for quantum information theory and mathematical topology for knot theory.- Exposition of mathematical concepts underlying physical phenomena.- Combines mathematical rigour with practical applications.- Offers learning and teaching aids as worked-out examples with solutions for the application of higher mathematics in physics and engineering.- Reader-friendly summaries in each chapter
Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
Auteur
Tsuneyoshi Nakayama graduated from Hokkaido University in Japan in 1973. He is a professor of Theoretical Condensed Matter Physics in Department of Applied Physics in Hokkaido University from 1986. During this period he stayed Max-Planck Institute, University of Monpellier, University of Cambridge, and The University of Tokyo. He is the co-author of the book "Fractal concepts of condensed matter." Hiroyuki Shima obtained Ph.D from Hokkaido University. He is currently pursuing his studies, with a special interest in critical phenomena in disordered systems and many-body problems in complex systems. He has had a considerable amount of experience in teaching mathematics and physics to undergraduate and graduate students.
