I've been trying to slog through Quantum Physics for Dummies, but can't even get past the first chapter. There's a lot of talk of Bras, Kets, and Hilbert spaces, but I feel I'm missing the mathematical underpinnings that would make it understandable. Can anyone recommend a good book to build up my mathematical foundation for quantum physics? A textbook or study guide would be fine - I'd want a lot of examples and practice problems. By the end of this venture, I'd like these concepts to be intuitive to me.

What are the best textbooks to read for the mathematical background you need for modern physics, such as, string theory? Some subjects off the top of my head that probably need covering: Differential geometry, Manifolds, etc. Lie groups, Lie algebras and their representation theory. Algebraic topology.

I'm currently attending Norwegian high school and I'm in a course where we study electricity, automation, electronics, and almost no physics, chemistry etc. So it will be at least 5-6 years before I can think of taking any education in physics, however, I would like to get the basics going. So I wondered if anyone has any suggestions regarding books to start reading. I would like some very basic ones, the only physics I've had is junior-high level (newton laws, gravity pull etc.) Any suggestions?

I am a 16 year old student who will be learning Physics next year. Before I actually start Physics in school, however, I want to have a basic or intermediate understanding of the subject beforehand. This is because I'm really interested in this type of science and I want to to impress my science teacher. I'm hoping to be borrowing some books relating to Physics in the oncoming weeks to help me learn. Are there any resources online, Physics books, or exercises you guys can recommend to me? Also, are there certain terms or parts of Physics that I should start off with? (eg: the study of relativity)

This is more of a question about philosophy of mathematics. There is an apparent circularity in set theory and logic, in the means that we use set theory to define model theory, and we use results from model theory for proofs in set theory. And, analogously, we use set theory to prove facts from logic (unique readability, for example) and we define set theory using logic. I feel that we can reduce all this notions to a single syntactical idea of logical consequence, and from there we can define things in a non-circular way. However, I can't seem to make this notions all fit together in a logical, foundational manner. Does anyone know of an article or book that addresses this issue?
|
I wonder about the foundations of set theory and my question can be stated in some related forms: If we base Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory on first order logic, does that mean first order logic is not allowed to contain the notion of sets? The axioms of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory seem to already expect the notion of a set to be defined. Is there are pre-definition of what we are dealing with? And where? In set theory, if a function is defined as a set using tuples, why or how does first order logic and the axioms of Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory contain parameter dependend properties $\psi(u_1,u_2,q,...)$, which basically are functions?
|
I know they have their adherents, but do more or less esoteric branches of mathematics such as Category Theory and/or Quantum Logic provide powerful tools for new theory development or are they just occasionally-useful presentational frameworks? More particularly, is it worth investing the time to study these formalisms?

What is integration by parts, really? Integration by parts comes up a lot - for instance, it appears in the definition of a weak derivative / distributional derivative, or as a tool that one can use to turn information about higher derivatives of a function into information about an integral of that function. Concrete examples of this latter category include: proving that $f \in C^2(S^1)$ implies that the Fourier series of $f$ converges absolutely and uniformly, and the Taylor series expansion with the integral formula for remainder. However, I don't feel like I really understand what integration by parts is really doing. To me, it is just an algebraic trick that follows from the fundamental theorem of calculus and the product rule. Is there some more conceptual way to think about it? How do you think about this useful idea?

Why can partial derivatives be exchanged? In the post in this stack exchange, one of the answers to the questions of do partial derivatives commute is: Second order partial derivatives commute if f is $C^2$ (i.e. all the second partial derivatives exist and are continuous). This is sometimes called Schwarz's Theorem or Clairaut's Theorem. This theorem is in my textbooks, yet I cannot seem to find the proof in them. I have tried proving the theorem yet I have gotten stuck. So, what is the proof of Clairaut's Theorem, or why do partial derivatives commute? If the proof is too long, a link to the proof with an intuitive explanation will be sufficient.

I know a little bit of trigonometry and what functions are but not really in depth.The book should start from the base, I mean really from the base. I may require a precalculus book too if the books don't cover that. I would really love if the book shows how calculus was developed, why it was developed and things like that.

How much does extracurricular matter for admission to PhD program in Computer Science? I graduated with a B.S. in "Computer & Information Sciences" from a small, insignificant liberal arts school. My overall CGPA was 3.86 and my major CGPA was 3.80. Average GPA, but I am worried about the quality of my studies, not the quantity. During my undergraduate studies I put just enough work into the CS classes to get the grade, and not any more. And I am guessing it is much harder to maintain such GPAs at state universities with more rigorous programs. I have no extracurricular work to show: never participated in projects, and never done real research work. Can I still apply to decent PhD programs? Will any PhD programs consider me seriously? Thank you!

A No-Nonsense Introduction to Quantum Field Theory I found Sean Carroll's "A No Nonsense Introduction to General Relativity" (about page . pdf ), a 24-page overview of the topic, very helpful for beginning study. It all got me over the hump of learning the meaning of various terms associated with GR, most of which I had heard before without understanding. It also outlined the most important examples. Is there a similar document for quantum field theory, which presents the main equations, briefly describes the main ideas, and summarizes the most important applications and results so that the reader can feel the lay of the land before studying in depth?

How do shock waves form in space? Today my aerodynamics professor mentioned that the equations we were learning for atmospheric shock waves can also be applied by astrophysicists to study black hole-related shock waves in space. How is this possible? Isn't space too rarefied for shock waves? What is an example application? He mentioned something about the density limit before/after a relativistic shock approaching 6.

what does a physicist do
|
Physicists explore and identify basic principles governing the structure and behaviour of matter, the generation and transfer of energy, and the interaction of matter and energy.hysicists who conduct applied research build upon the discoveries made through basic research and work to develop new devices, products and processes. For instance, basic research in solid-state physics led to the development of transistors and then to the integrated circuits used in computers.
|
Physicists study lots of different things that have energy and can make things happen (like electricity, magnetism, light, sound, heat). They also study forces â pushes and pulls and movement. There are lots of other kinds of scientists, who study the weather, the sea and many other different things.hemists try to find out what things are made of, and often make new things.

what is systems theory
|
Systems Theory: the transdisciplinary study of the abstract organization of phenomena, independent of their substance, type, or spatial or temporal scale of existence. It investigates both the principles common to all complex entities, and the (usually mathematical) models which can be used to describe them.ystems theory was proposed in the 1940's by the biologist Ludwig von Bertalanffy (: General Systems Theory, 1968), and furthered by Ross Ashby (Introduction to Cybernetics, 1956). von Bertalanffy was both reacting agaInst reductionism and attempting to revive the unity of science.

physics - Computer Definition. The science of matter and energy, and their properties and interactions in fields including mechanics, acoustics, optics, heat, electricity, magnetism, radiation, and atomic and nuclear science. Physics is the science of how things work.
|
Physics is the study of the basic elements of nature dealing with the key components that govern it, energy, matter and the their interaction in time and space. As such physics provides an important anchor to the to study all higher order scientific studies such us Biology and Chemistry. Without space, matter, energy and time the living organisms will not exist, and the ability to create a science that would study living things, Biology, would not exist either.

dear friend if you are seriously interested then you can learn physics from any book in the library. best way to select the book is first decide what to you want to study, then go to a good library and skim through the relevant books, and read the book which you find most easy to grasp, and solve some problems. remember if you will not solve the problems you will never learn anything. some of the best books are Feynman lectures, Resnick Halliday, Berkeley Physics course, Zeemansky-Sears,H.A Goldstein-Classical Mech., DJ Griffith-Electrodyn. Modern QM -Sakurai etc..\nthese are not the only one there are lot more an dyou can find out from there bibligraphy and references which are the ones you need.

The following problem was proposed by Thomas Ihringer in [1]: are there, for every n@eN, only finitely many possibilities f(n) to dissect a square into n rectangles of equal size? We prove that the answer is 'yes'. We also prove that lim"n"->"~f(n)^1^n exists.
|
We study the dissection of a square into congruent convex polygons with $q$-vertices. Yuan \emph{et al.} [Dissection the square into five congruent parts, Discrete Math. \textbf{339} (2016) 288-298] posed the question that if the number of tiles is a prime number $\geq 3$, is it true that the polygon must be a rectangle. We conjecture that the same conclusion still holds even if the number of tiles is an odd number $\geq 3$. Our conjecture has been confirmed for triangles in earlier works. We prove that the conjecture holds if either the prototile is a convex $q$-gon with $q\geq 6$ or it is a right-angle trapezoid.

Usually someone starts digging in the OP mind posting comments and asking him for details. It may happen that the question gets edited and the OP edits it to a valid question. Do you usually give the OP time to edit the question or you immediately vote to close it?

In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets it is revealed that Ginny is being possessed by Tom Riddle and is the one opening the Chamber of Secrets. The book seems relatively without holes in this regard. However in the movie when Harry discovers Justin Flinch-Fletchley we see moments prior to this Ginny is studying in a room full of people. This implies that the person opening the chamber of secrets couldn't have been in the chamber when the second attack occurs. Is this just a goof in the movie or is there an alternate explanation for this? Is the Basilisk acting on its own in the movie?

How do I convert materials from Blender Internal to Cycles? I know this may be a tough or confusing question, but I have numerous existing materials I created and reuse for a project, which were all prepared for Blender Internal. Now, I want to start the transition to Cycles, but I've hit a roadblock. How can I transition my materials without completely starting over? Or should I just forget it and start with fresh materials?

Not really a study guide. More of a practice test.

I purchased this book to help me study for certification in microbiology. I found that it is just a bunch of practice questions. The practice questions are great as a way to see what the test will be like, but not good for finding all the info needed to study. I recently purchased Microcards: Review Cards for Medical Students and Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple. Both are great tools for studying.

This is the only quiz book available in the US because it relies strictly on non-fictional facts about Potter and Rowling, and therefore does not infringe on Rowling's copyright.

Excellent study guide. Every student should have this.

Exactly what I was looking for! Straight to the point. This book is an EXACT copy and paste from the actual FAA written test. I studied this book, and was super surprised to see the FAA test have the same exact answers and choices as the book. One thing I would recommend, is that if you have an iPhone or an Android, is to buy the app which cost $9.99. With the app, and this book, there should be no reason to why you would not pass. I got a 92 myself!

Its sold as a quiz, not an outline. It is not a quiz. Most all of the "questions" are actually just an instruction to define a term from the pmbok. Its not at all format for the exam. I'm warning that the $13 invested in to this is actually negative for those studying for the exam, use the valuable time before your exam studying elsewhere.

Well, I just finished my B.B.A.LL.B (Bacherlors in Business Administration and Law) and I'm planning to pursue my LL.M (master in Law). But I'm not sure where to do my LL.M, U.S. (Harvard, Stanford, Columbia, Cornell) or UK (Oxford, University of London). Can anyone suggest me which would be a good option?
|
There isn't a bad university in the lot.\n\nWhere do you want to study law? If in the US, go to a US school. If in the UK, then study in a UK school.\n\nIf you want to go to a US school you might want to think about location. Cornel is in the middle of nowhere -- which may or may not appeal to you. Stanford and Columbia are in locations where a lot of people want to live -- but both laces are expensive. You might want to add other US schools that are in the top ten (e.g., Duke, Penn, Yale, UC Berkeley).

But the plaintiff seems to have won. "The appeal must be allowed and the judgment be reversed. It must be declared that the defendant purchased the Delmar estates as a trustee for the plaintiff, but subject to a charge for the amount paid to the Dutch company."\n\nIn this day and age (and ignoring the point that Roman Dutch law may have been relevant) one would want to look at (depending whether you are in England or in the USA):\n\n-- the law regarding registration of title and charges to land\n-- bankruptcy law (but the rights of trust beneficiaries are similar today)\n-- statutes in derogation of the common law, particularly regarding limitations\n-- the law of adverse possession.\n\nJust some ideas.

Geometry is about thinking logically, as scientists do, or lawyers, or auto mechanics. There are facts you have to know: the definitions, postulates, theorems. And there are procedures you have to know: how to assemble the facts in a sequence that proves something.\n\nIn truth, not everyone is up to it. Lots of people prefer to run their lives on a combination of emotion and simple beliefs and let other people do the thinking. Maybe they're even happy. But understanding the world well enough to make changes takes the kind of education that's based on hard mental work.

should i do fast track and if i do fast track don't you think its gonna be hard . iam thinking to take grade 11 biolgy, chemistry, physics, math, english, intro to anthroplogy what else can i take
|
What you have chosen sounds good. In the overall scheme of things it doesn't matter a great deal what else you choose since you are only in 11th grade. Just make sure you continue with sciences and continue to do very well in them. Universities look at how well you do in your courses, not so much at which courses you do, as long as you have the required ones. And you have the required ones if you have the math, the sciences, and English. The only ones I would recommend are a psychology course and/or a statistics course if they are available to you in high school. And I really don't think that fast track matters either - take your time and get a good foundation.\n\nGood luck with your future plans.

Give about ten reasons taking a school as an example.\nI need about two pages.

I think it depends on a number of factors:\n\n1) can you afford to live away from home;\n2) does the university have the program you want to take; and if so how does this program rate nationally, internationally,\n3) Do you want to attend university to get a general education or something more specific like pre-med, social work, architechture.\n\nI think you have to answer these questions and then look at what you really want to study and are you prepared to move far away from where you grew up.\n\nThis is what I did and it helped allot. \n\nHope this helps you.\n\nCheers,

When I took Chemistry, I found that flashcards usually helped with remembering names of compounds and acids. As for the actual problem, it was just practice. I would try to do as many of the problems that I could possibly do and would then call a friend for the problems I wasn't sure about. \n\nFor me at least, reading the book didn't help too much, it explained it, but rereading wasn't exactly great, just look at the example problems, those are usually helpful as well.

Prove that $A \smallsetminus (A \smallsetminus B) = A \cap B$ $A$ and $B$ are any sets, prove that $A \smallsetminus (A \smallsetminus B) = A \cap B.$ This formula makes sense when represented on a Venn diagram, but I am having trouble with proving it mathematically.
