A collection of 18 review articles, this work includes contributions which range from fundamental methods to the modern applications, including: Algebraic/analytic/geometric methods; Symmetries and conservation laws; Mathematical modelling; and Quantum computation.
"Mathematical Tools for Physicists" is a unique collection of 18 review articles, each one written by a renowned expert of its field. Their professional style will be beneficial for advanced students as well as for the scientist at work. The first may find a comprehensive introduction while the latter use it as a quick reference. The contributions range from fundamental methods right up to the latest applications, including: Algebraic/analytic/geometric methods; Symmetries and conservation laws; Mathematical modelling; and Quantum computation. Great attention was paid to ensuring fast access to the information, and each carefully reviewed article features: an abstract; a detailed table of contents; continuous cross-referencing; references to the most relevant publications in the field, and suggestions for further reading, both introductory as well as highly specialized. In addition, a comprehensive index provides easy access to the enormous number of key words beyond the headlines.
