Balakrishnan\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Springer Nature Switzerland AG, Switzerland\nImprint: Springer Nature Switzerland AG\nISBN-13: 9783030396824, 978-3030396824\nSynopsis\nThis textbook is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students interested in learning the fundamental mathematical concepts and tools widely used in different areas of physics. The author draws on a vast teaching experience, and presents a comprehensive and self-contained text which explains how mathematics intertwines with and forms an integral part of physics in numerous instances. Rather than emphasizing rigorous proofs of theorems, specific examples and physical applications (such asfluid dynamics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, etc.) are invoked to illustrate and elaborate upon the relevant mathematical techniques. The early chapters of the book introduce differenttypes of functions, vectors and tensors, vector calculus, and mat.
