Material type: materialTypeLabelComputer fileSeries: Advanced textbooks in physics.Publisher: London : World Scientific Publishing Europe Ltd., ©2019Description: 1 online resource (308 p.) : ill.ISBN: 9781786345493.Subject(s): Mathematical physics -- Textbooks | Physics -- Textbooks | Functional analysis -- Textbooks | Electronic booksDDC classification: 530.15 Online resources: Access to full text is restricted to subscribers. Summary: "This book provides a self-contained and rigorous presentation of the main mathematical tools needed to approach many courses at the last year of undergraduate in Physics and MSc programs, from Electromagnetism to Quantum Mechanics. It complements A Guide to Mathematical Methods for Physicists with advanced topics and physical applications. The different arguments are organised in three main sections: Complex Analysis, Differential Equations and Hilbert Spaces, covering most of the standard mathematical method tools in modern physics. One of the purposes of the book is to show how seemingly different mathematical tools like, for instance, Fourier transforms, eigenvalue problems, special functions and so on, are all deeply interconnected. It contains a large number of examples, problems and detailed solutions, emphasising the main purpose of relating concrete physical examples with more formal mathematical aspects."-- Publisher's website.
