Symmetry has always played an important role in mechanics, from fundamental formulations of basic principles to concrete applications. The theme of the book is to develop the basic theory and applications of mechanics with an emphasis on the role of symmetry. In recent times, the interest in mechani[...]

Elementary Classical Analysis balances pure and applied mathematics with an emphasis on specific techniques important to classical analysis without vector calculus or complex analysis. It also includes detailed coverage of the foundations of the real number system and focuses primarily on analysis i[...]

This vector calculus text helps students gain a solid, intuitive understanding of this important subject. The book's careful contemporary balance between theory, application and historical development, provides readers with insights into how mathematics progresses and is in turn influenced by the na[...]

A presentation of some of the basic ideas of fluid mechanics in a mathematically attractive manner. The text illustrates the physical background and motivation for some constructions used in recent mathematical and numerical work on the Navier- Stokes equations and on hyperbolic systems, so as to in[...]
