Description for Modern Differential Geometry for Physicists
Paperback. These lecture notes provide a course on modern, co-ordinate-free differential geometry. They introduce general topology and co-ordinate-free differential geometry, examine geometrical aspects of the theory of Lie groups and Lie group actions on manifolds, and cover the theory of fibre bundles. Series: World Scientific Lecture Notes in Physics. Num Pages: 304 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBMP; PDE; PH. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 216 x 153 x 17. Weight in Grams: 426.
This edition of the invaluable text Modern Differential Geometry for Physicists contains an additional chapter that introduces some of the basic ideas of general topology needed in differential geometry. A number of small corrections and additions have also been made.These lecture notes are the content of an introductory course on modern, coordinate-free differential geometry which is taken by first-year theoretical physics PhD students, or by students attending the one-year MSc course “Quantum Fields and Fundamental Forces” at Imperial College. The book is concerned entirely with mathematics proper, although the emphasis and detailed topics have been chosen bearing in mind the ... Read more
