  • Electricity and Magnetism for Mathematicians

    A Guided Path from Maxwell's Equations to Yang–Mills

    by Thomas A. Garrity ...
    This text is an introduction to some of the mathematical wonders of Maxwell's equations. These equations led to the prediction of radio waves, the realization that light is a type of electromagnetic wave, and the discovery of the special theory of relativity. In fact, almost all current descriptions of the fundamental laws of the universe can be viewed as deep generalizations of Maxwell's ... Read more

  • Indra's Pearls

    The Vision of Felix Klein

    by David Mumford, Caroline Series, David Wright ...
    Felix Klein, one of the great nineteenth-century geometers, discovered in mathematics an idea prefigured in Buddhist mythology: the heaven of Indra contained a net of pearls, each of which was reflected in its neighbour, so that the whole Universe was mirrored in each pearl. Klein studied infinitely repeated reflections and was led to forms with multiple coexisting symmetries. For a century, these ... Read more

  • The Statistical Mechanics of Interacting Walks, Polygons, Animals and Vesicles

    by E.J. Janse van Rensburg ...
    Series series Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its Applications
    The self-avoiding walk is a classical model in statistical mechanics, probability theory and mathematical physics. It is also a simple model of polymer entropy which is useful in modelling phase behaviour in polymers. This monograph provides an authoritative examination of interacting self-avoiding walks, presenting aspects of the thermodynamic limit, phase behaviour, scaling and critical ... Read more

  • Aperiodic Order: Volume 1, A Mathematical Invitation

    by Michael Baake, Uwe Grimm ...
    Series Book 149 - Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications
    Quasicrystals are non-periodic solids that were discovered in 1982 by Dan Shechtman, Nobel Prize Laureate in Chemistry 2011. The underlying mathematics, known as the theory of aperiodic order, is the subject of this comprehensive multi-volume series. This first volume provides a graduate-level introduction to the many facets of this relatively new area of mathematics. Special attention is given to ... Read more

  • Knots And Physics (Fourth Edition)

    by Louis H Kauffman ...
    Series Book 53 - Series On Knots And Everything
    This invaluable book is an introduction to knot and link invariants as generalized amplitudes for a quasi-physical process. The demands of knot theory, coupled with a quantum-statistical framework, create a context that naturally and powerfully includes an extraordinary range of interrelated topics in topology and mathematical physics. The author takes a primarily combinatorial stance toward knot ... Read more

  • The Mathematical Structure of Classical and Relativistic Physics

    A General Classification Diagram

    by Enzo Tonti ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The theories describing seemingly unrelated areas of physics have surprising analogies that have aroused the curiosity of scientists and motivated efforts to identify reasons for their existence. Comparative study of physical theories has revealed the presence of a common topological and geometric structure. The Mathematical Structure of Classical and Relativistic Physics is the first book to ... Read more
