Description for The Theory Of Sprays And Finsler Spaces
Hardback. Presents the principles and methods of sprays (path spaces) and Finsler spaces with various applications in the physical and life sciences. Beginning from the classical theory of sprays, this book presents an introduction to modern Finsler differential geometry. It is suitable for geometers, physicists and theoretical (marine) biologists. Series: Fundamental Theories of Physics. Num Pages: 328 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBMS; PBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 19. Weight in Grams: 642.
The present book has been written by two mathematicians and one physicist: a pure mathematician specializing in Finsler geometry (Makoto Matsumoto), one working in mathematical biology (Peter Antonelli), and a mathematical physicist specializing in information thermodynamics (Roman Ingarden). The main purpose of this book is to present the principles and methods of sprays (path spaces) and Finsler spaces together with examples of applications to physical and life sciences. It is our aim to write an introductory book on Finsler geometry and its applications at a fairly advanced level. It is intended especially for graduate students in pure mathemat ics, science ...
