Mathematical physics book pdf

This book covers a variety of topics, including waves, heat conduction, hydrodynamics, and other physical problems. Comprised of 30 lectures, this book begins with an overview of the theory of the equations of mathematical physics that has its object the study of the integral, differential, and functional equations describing various natural phenomena.

This text then examines the linear equations of the second order with real coefficients. Other lectures consider the Lebesgue—Fubini theorem on the possibility of changing the order of integration in a multiple integral. This book discusses as well the Dirichlet problem and the Neumann problem for domains other than a sphere or half-space.

The final lecture deals with the properties of spherical functions. This book is a valuable resource for mathematicians. Equations in Mathematical Physics Author : V. This is especially true with regards to such a fundamental concept as the 80lution of a boundary value problem.

The concept of a generalized solution considerably broadens the field of problems and enables solving from a unified position the most interesting problems that cannot be solved by applying elassical methods.

Vladimirov and "Partial Differential Equations" by V. Mikhailov both books have been translated into English by Mir Publishers, the first in and the second in The present collection of problems is based on these courses and amplifies them considerably. Besides the classical boundary value problems, we have ineluded a large number of boundary value problems that have only generalized solutions. Solution of these requires using the methods and results of various branches of modern analysis.

For this reason we have ineluded problems in Lebesgue in tegration, problems involving function spaces especially spaces of generalized differentiable functions and generalized functions with Fourier and Laplace transforms , and integral equations. The lectures were dedicated to symplectic and Poisson geometry, tractor calculus, and the integration of ordinary differential equations, and are included here as lecture notes comprising the first three chapters.

The author draws on a vast teaching experience, and presents a comprehensive and self-contained text which explains how mathematics intertwines with and forms an integral part of physics in numerous instances. Rather than emphasizing rigorous proofs of theorems, specific examples and physical applications such as fluid dynamics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, etc.

The early chapters of the book introduce different types of functions, vectors and tensors, vector calculus, and matrices. In the subsequent chapters, more advanced topics like linear spaces, operator algebras, special functions, probability distributions, stochastic processes, analytic functions, Fourier series and integrals, Laplace transforms, Green's functions and integral equations are discussed.

The book also features about exercises and solved problems interspersed throughout the text at appropriate junctures, to facilitate the logical flow and to test the key concepts. Overall this book will be a valuable resource for a wide spectrum of students and instructors of mathematical physics. Skip to main content Skip to table of contents. Advertisement Hide.
