Lecture Notes on Mathematical Methods of Classical Physics
by Vicente Cortes, Alexander S. Haupt
Publisher: arXiv 2016
Number of pages: 105
Description:
These notes grew out of a lecture course on mathematical methods of classical physics for students of mathematics and mathematical physics at the master's level. Also, physicists with a strong interest in mathematics may find this text useful as a resource complementary to existing textbooks on classical physics.

Lie Theory and Special Functionsby Willard Miller - Academic Press
The book studies the role played by special function theory in the formalism of mathematical physics. It demonstrates that special functions which arise in mathematical models are dictated by symmetry groups admitted by the models.
