Tensor for Pedestrians is an accessible aid for physics and engineering undergraduates who seek a deeper understanding of tensors at an intuitive level. The book is intended as a self-study introduction to differential geometry, curvature, and Cartan moving frames. The subjects treated are planned to transit the student from the standard vector calculus taught in introductory courses towards modern differential geometry with its various applications. Presentation of the material is leisurely paced - as befits pedestrian learners. Chapters are self contained and equations in the text are fully explained without obscure and annoying gaps. The book is richly supplemented by many examples and detailed problems and solutions at the end of each chapter. All in all, the book will enable a beginner or an intermediate learner to explore and appreciate the beauty of the fundamental concepts presented.

  • HYDRODYNAMIC SCALES OF INTEGRABLE MANY-BODY SYSTEMS
    Herbert Spohn / SPOHN HERBERT
    This book provides a broad introduction to integrable systems with many degrees of freedom. Within a much larger orbit, discussed are models such as the classical Toda lattice, Calogero fluid, and Ablowitz-Ladik discretized nonlinear Schrödinger equation. On the quantum mechanical side, featured are the Lieb-Liniger delta-Bose gas and the quantum Toda lattice. As a genuinely no...

    MIRMAN R / R MIRMAN
    This book is by far the most comprehensive treatment of point and space groups, and their meaning and applications. Its completeness makes it especially useful as a text, since it gives the instructor the flexibility to best fit the class and goals. The instructor, not the author, decides what is in the course. And it is the prime book for reference, as material is much more li...
