Product Description: This book gives a comprehensive introduction to modern quantum mechanics, emphasising the underlying Hilbert space theory and generalised function theory. All the major modern techniques and approaches used in quantum mechanics are introduced, such as Berry phase, coherent and squeezed states, quantum computing, solitons and quantum mechanics...read more

Product Description: As an extensive collection of problems with detailed solutions in introductory and advanced matrix calculus, this self-contained book is ideal for both graduate and undergraduate mathematics students. The coverage includes systems of linear equations, linear differential equations, functions of matrices and the Kronecker product...read more

Product Description: Quantum computing and quantum information are two of the fastest growing and most exciting research fields in physics. The possibilities of using the non-local behavior of quantum mechanics to factor integers in random polynomial time have also added to this new interest...read more

Product Description: Dieses Lehrbuch bietet eine grundlegende Einführung in chaotische Systeme, welche keinerlei Abstriche an mathematischer Exaktheit macht. Der Text umfasst einerseits in ansprechender Tiefe die klassischen theoretischen Gesichtspunkte der dynamischen Systeme, wobei alle wesentlichen Beispiele der Literatur ausührlich behandelt werden...read more

Product Description: Many dynamical systems in physics, chemistry and biology exhibit complex be­ haviour. The apparently random motion of a fluid is the best known example. How­ ever also vibrating structures, electronic oscillators, magnetic devices,lasers, chemical oscillators, and population kinetics can behave in a complicated manner...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: This book is an edited version of lectures given by the authors at a seminar at the Rand Afrikaans University. It gives a survey on the Painlevé test, Painlevé property and integrability. Both ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations are considered.
