Harmonic Oscillators and Two-by-two Matrices in Symmetry Problems in Physics
by Young Suh Kim (ed.)
Publisher: MDPI AG 2017
ISBN-13: 9783038425014
Number of pages: 370
Description:
With a degree of exaggeration, modern physics is the physics of harmonic oscillators and two-by-two matrices. Indeed, they constitute the basic language for the symmetry problems in physics, and thus the main theme of this journal. This book could serve to illustrate the important aspect of symmetry problems in physics.

Navier-Stokes Equations: On the Existence and the Search Method for Global Solutionsby Solomon I. Khmelnik - MiC
In this book we formulate and prove the variational extremum principle for viscous incompressible and compressible fluid, from which principle follows that the Navier-Stokes equations represent the extremum conditions of a certain functional.

Physics, Topology, Logic and Computation: A Rosetta Stoneby John C. Baez, Mike Stay - arXiv
There is extensive network of analogies between physics, topology, logic and computation. In this paper we make these analogies precise using the concept of 'closed symmetric monoidal category'. We assume no prior knowledge of category theory.

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.
