Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering
CRC Press (Verlag)
978-1-138-05688-6 (ISBN)
Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this new textbook contains an introduction to the mathematical concepts used in physics and engineering. The entire book is unique in that it draws upon applications from physics, rather than mathematical examples, to ensure students are fully equipped with the tools they need. This approach prepares the reader for advanced topics, such as quantum mechanics and general relativity, while offering examples, problems, and insights into classical physics. The book is also distinctive in the coverage it devotes to modelling, and to oft-neglected topics such as Green's functions.
Mattias Blennow is an associate professor in the Department of Theoretical physics at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden. His field of research is directed towards weakly interacting particle physics, specializing in theoretical neutrino and dark matter physics with 51 scientific papers published in peer-reviewed journals. He has taught courses at all university levels, including mathematical methods in physics, quantum mechanics, special and general relativity, and quantum field theory.
