Suitable for advanced undergraduates or beginning graduate students, this guide contains over 300 worked- out examples and more than 800 problems which offer learning aids. It is also intended as a refresher or reference for physicists and applied mathematicians.
For physics students interested in the mathematics they use, and for math students interested in seeing how some of the ideas of their discipline find realization in an applied setting. The presentation strikes a balance between formalism and application, between abstract and concrete. The interconnections among the various topics are clarified both by the use of vector spaces as a central unifying theme, recurring throughout the book, and by putting ideas into their historical context. Enough of the essential formalism is included to make the presentation self-contained.
