By: Boas, Mary LMaterial type: TextTextPublication details: New Delhi: Wiley Publications, [c1959]Edition: 3rd edDescription: 811 pISBN: 9788126508105LOC classification: QA37
Contents:
1 INFINITE SERIES, POWER SERIES 2 COMPLEX NUMBERS 3 LINEAR ALGEBRA 4 PARTIAL DIFFERENTIATION 5 MULTIPLE INTEGRALS 3 6 VECTOR ANALYSIS 7 FOURIER SERIES AND TRANSFORMS 8 ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 9 CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS 10 TENSOR ANALYSIS 11 SPECIAL FUNCTIONS 12 SERIES SOLUTIONS OF DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS; LEGENDRE, BESSEL, HERMITE, AND LAGUERRE FUNCTIONS 13 PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS 14 FUNCTIONS OF A COMPLEX VARIABLE 15 PROBABILITY AND STATISTICS
Summary: Mathematical Concepts in the Physical Sciences, 3rd Edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the areas of mathematical physics. It combines all the essential math concepts into one compact, clearly written reference.Its purpose is to help students develop, in a short time, a basic competence in each of the many areas of mathematics needed in advanced courses in physics, chemistry, and engineering. Students are given sufficient depth to gain a solid foundation. At the same time, they are not overwhelmed with detailed proofs that are more appropriate for students of mathematics. The emphasis is on mathematical methods rather than applications, but students are given some idea of how the methods will be used along with some simple applications.
