Mathematical methods for physicists

Books

  • James Nearing, Mathematical Tools for Physics, Dover Publications, 2010.

  • Michael Stone and Paul Goldbart, Mathematics for Physics (also here), Cambridge University Press, 2009.

  • Eric L. Michelsen, Funky Mathematical Physics Concepts, 2020

    "The purpose of the “Funky” series of documents is to help develop an accurate physical, conceptual, geometric, and pictorial understanding of important physics topics. We focus on areas that don’t seem to be covered well in most texts we’ve seen. The documents are intended for serious students of physics. They are not 'popularizations' or oversimplifications, though they try to start simply, and build to more advanced topics..."
