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.

  • Herbert Wilf, Mathematics for the Physical Sciences, Dover Publications, 2006.

  • Michael P. Brenner, Physical Mathematics, Harvard AM201, 2010.

  • 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..."

Lorem Ipsum

Etiam porta sem malesuada magna mollis euismod rendered as bold text. Cras mattis consectetur purus sit amet fermentum le syndrome du clandestin. Три только движения в натурѣ есть, проходное, зыблющееся или трясущееся и коловратное. A clear, authoritative judicial holding on the meaning of a particular provision

\[ \begin{align} \frac{d}{d t} \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial \dot{q}} & = \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial q} \\ H & = \frac{\partial {\mathcal L}}{\partial \dot{q}}\dot{q}-{\mathcal L}\\ -\frac{\partial S}{\partial t} & = H\left(q, \frac{\partial S}{\partial q}, t\right) \end{align} \]

should not be cast in doubt and subjected to challenge whenever a related though not utterly inconsistent provision is adopted in the same statute or even in an affiliated statute, the two authors wrote
