Generalized Functions: Theory and Applications by Ram P. Kanwal (auth.)

By Ram P. Kanwal (auth.)

This 3rd variation of "Generalized services" expands the remedy of primary ideas and theoretical history fabric and delineates connections to various functions in mathematical physics, elasticity, wave propagation, magnetohydrodynamics, linear platforms, likelihood and information, optimum keep watch over difficulties in economics, and extra. In using the robust instruments of generalized capabilities to higher serve the desires of physicists, engineers, and utilized mathematicians, this paintings is sort of precise from different books at the subject.

Key new themes and critical features:

* exam of the Poisson Summation formulation and the innovations of differential varieties and the delta distribution on wave fronts

* more suitable presentation of the Schroedinger, Klein–Gordon, Helmholtz, warmth and wave equations

* Exposition pushed by means of extra examples and routines

* finished bibliography and index

* necessities: complex calculus, traditional and partial differential equations

From the Reviewers:

"Kanwal’s e-book is a helpful member of this corporation [Gelfand and Shilov, Semanian, Friedman, Jones, and Barros-Neto]. Its energy lies within the program to classical physics….[it provides] a wealth of purposes that can't be present in the other unmarried source…Kanwal has written a important publication available to first-year graduate scholars in physics and engineering."

--Ivar Stakgold, arithmetic, collage of Delaware

"The benefit of this article is in rigorously collected examples explaining how one can use corresponding properties…. Even the traditional fabric connecting with partial and traditional differential equations is rewritten in glossy terminology."

The Calculus Diaries: How Math Can Help You Lose Weight, Win in Vegas, and Survive a Zombie Apocalypse

Kiss My Math meets A journey of the Calculus

Jennifer Ouellette by no means took math in collage, as a rule simply because she-like so much people-assumed that she wouldn't desire it in actual existence. yet then the English-major-turned-award-winning-science-writer had a metamorphosis of middle and determined to revisit the equations and formulation that had haunted her for years. The Calculus Diaries is the joys and interesting account of her 12 months spent confronting her math phobia head on. With wit and verve, Ouellette exhibits how she realized to use calculus to every little thing from gasoline mileage to weight loss plan, from the rides at Disneyland to capturing craps in Vegas-proving that even the mathematically challenged can study the basics of the common language.

A Course in Multivariable Calculus and Analysis (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics)

This self-contained textbook provides an intensive exposition of multivariable calculus. it may be seen as a sequel to the one-variable calculus textual content, A path in Calculus and genuine research, released within the similar sequence. The emphasis is on correlating common recommendations and result of multivariable calculus with their opposite numbers in one-variable calculus.

Partial Differential Equations V: Asymptotic Methods for Partial Differential Equations (Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences) (v. 5)

The six articles during this EMS quantity supply an summary of a few modern thoughts within the research of the asymptotic habit of partial differential equations. those suggestions contain the Maslov canonical operator, semiclassical asymptotics of strategies and eigenfunctions, habit of options close to singular issues of alternative types, matching of asymptotic expansions on the subject of a boundary layer, and tactics in inhomogeneous media.
