Lectures on Applications-Oriented Mathematics

Meets the need for a program of short courses involving the essentials of a number of mathematical topics taken by physics and engineering students. Basically applications-oriented, the courses do include selected topics of abstract mathematics. While several courses can be used as practical appendices to conventional mathematics, others serve as introductions, providing motivation for self-study in areas of conceptual math.

Distributions. Spectral Theory of Operators. Asymptotic Methods. Difference Equations. Complex Integration. Symbolic Methods. Probability. Perturbation Theory. Bibliography.
