Quantum mechanics is a fundamental and conceptually challenging area of physics. It is usually assumed that students are unfamiliar with Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics and the role played by probability. As a result,…

This book contains more than 300 problems in quantum mechanics with accompanying solutions, covering topics that are commonly taught in first-year graduate physics programs. Special care is given to each problem's formulation, with detailed and…

This extended and updated second edition course text presents a logical and concise introduction to the basic concepts, applications, and physical meaning of quantum mechanics. An initial review of classical mechanics and electromagnetism provides…

After completing his famous Foundations of Analysis, Landau turned his attention to this book on calculus. The approach is that of an unrepentant analyst, with an emphasis on functions rather than on geometric or physical applications. The book is…

This book is intended as an introduction to probability theory and mathematical statistics for students in mathematics, the physical sciences, engineering, and related fields. It is based on the author’s 25 years of experience teaching probability…

This is an introduction to abstract algebra. It is anticipated that the students have studied calculus and probably linear algebra. However, these are primarily mathematical maturity prerequisites; subject matter from calculus and linear algebra…

This open access book covers the main topics for a course on the differential geometry of curves and surfaces. Unlike the common approach in existing textbooks, there is a strong focus on variational problems, ranging from elastic curves to surfaces…

This book presents a concise introduction to differential geometry. It is aimed at advanced undergraduate students and first-year graduate students who wish to have a basic, solid knowledge of the subject, and it can serve as a starting point for…

This textbook provides a concise introduction to the differential geometry of curves and surfaces in three-dimensional space, tailored for undergraduate students with a solid foundation in mathematical analysis and linear algebra.
The book…

This book describes differential equations in correlation with qualitative and quantitative analysis and mathematical modelling in the engineering and applied sciences. Given equations are explained from multidimensional characterizations with MATLAB…
