A comprehensive graduate-level textbook covering the fundamental theory of solid state physics, including crystal structures, lattice vibrations, electron theory of solids, and quantum mechanical treatment of condensed matter systems.
A comprehensive textbook covering classical electromagnetics, including electrostatics, magnetostatics, electromagnetic waves, and transmission lines. Widely used in engineering and physics programs, known for its practical applications and clear explanations.
A classic advanced undergraduate/graduate-level text presenting the theory of electromagnetism within the framework of special relativity. Emphasizes physical insight into relativistic particle dynamics, Lorentz transformations, and covariant formulations of Maxwell’s equations.
This classic volume from the Schaum's Outline Series is designed to supplement standard high school and college geometry courses. It features 850 fully solved problems that provide step-by-step guidance on core topics, including lines, angles, triangles, parallel lines, and circles. A distinct focus is placed on coordinate (analytic) geometry, integrating algebraic methods with traditional geom…
This textbook, part of the Universitext series, is designed to bridge the gap between classical geometry and modern undergraduate mathematics. It treats the foundational topics of Euclidean, projective, and hyperbolic geometry using tools familiar to university students, such as linear algebra, group theory, and metric spaces. Based on a course at the University of Edinburgh, the text aims to d…
This textbook, later reprinted by Dover as Geometry: A Comprehensive Course, is a lucid and masterly survey of the geometry typically included in undergraduate mathematics programs. Based on a course taught by Professor Pedoe at the University of Minnesota, the text aims to increase mathematical understanding and enjoyment through a rigorous yet accessible approach. Key topics include the use o…
This textbook serves as a rigorous introduction to differential geometry, specifically designed for independent study or as a comprehensive reference work. Walter Poor defines geometric structures by specifying the parallel transport within an appropriate fiber bundle, focusing on linear parallel transport in its simplest forms. The text moves from an introductory overview of fiber bundles into…
This textbook provides a rigorous introduction to the classical subject of plane algebraic curves by utilizing the modern framework of valuation theory. Part of the Pure and Applied Mathematics series, it bridges the gap between elementary geometry and advanced algebraic concepts like algebraic varieties, adeles, and morphisms. The authors focus on providing a self-contained treatment suitable …
