Quantum Theory as an Emergent Phenomenon (1版)
相關熱銷的書籍推薦給您
Although it is our most successful physical theory, quantum mechanics raises conceptual issues that have perplexed physicists and philosophers of science for decades. This book develops a new approach based on the proposal that quantum theory is not a complete, final theory, but, in fact, an emergent phenomenon arising from a more profound level of dynamics.

Fractional Statistics and Quantum Theory (2版)
相關熱銷的書籍推薦給您
"As an important feature, this book contains both mathematics and physics, properly balanced for a student interested in studying theoretical physics. There are many exercises to be worked out. I am pleased to highly recommend the book for any one interested in the anyons."
Professor Mukunda P Das
The Australian National University
Reviews of the First Edition:
"This lucid monograph is highly recommended for those who want to do further research in the area as well as for those who are merely curious about this unusual aspect of quantum many-body physics."
Current Science
"The overall style is clear and pedagogical, with emphasis on symmetry and simplicity ... I recommend this book for newcomers, graduate students and teachers who are interested in having an introduction to the topics of the book's title."
Mathematical Reviews
This book explains the subtleties of quantum statistical mechanics in lower dimensions and their possible ramifications in quantum theory. The discussion is at a pedagogical level and is addressed to both graduate students and advanced researchers with a reasonable background in quantum and statistical mechanics.
Topics in the first part of the book include the flux tube model of anyons, the braid group and a detailed discussion about the various aspects of quantum and statistical mechanics of a noninteracting anyon gas.
The second part of the book includes a detailed discussion about fractional statistics from the point of view of Chern-Simons theories. Topics covered here include Chern-Simons field theories, charged vortices, anyon superconductivity and the fractional quantum Hall effect.
Since the publication of the first edition of the book, an exciting possibility has emerged, that of quantum computing using anyons. A section has therefore been included on this topic in the second edition. In addition, new sections have been added about scattering of anyons with hard disk repulsion as well as fractional exclusion statistics and negative probabilities.

About this Textbook
Reviews from the First Edition:
"An excellent text … The postulates of quantum mechanics and the mathematical underpinnings are discussed in a clear, succinct manner." (American Scientist)
"No matter how gently one introduces students to the concept of Dirac’s bras and kets, many are turned off. Shankar attacks the problem head-on in the first chapter, and in a very informal style suggests that there is nothing to be frightened of." (Physics Bulletin)
Reviews of the Second Edition:
"This massive text of 700 and odd pages has indeed an excellent get-up, is very verbal and expressive, and has extensively worked out calculational details---all just right for a first course. The style is conversational, more like a corridor talk or lecture notes, though arranged as a text. … It would be particularly useful to beginning students and those in allied areas like quantum chemistry." (Mathematical Reviews)
R. Shankar has introduced major additions and updated key presentations in this second edition of Principles of Quantum Mechanics. New features of this innovative text include an entirely rewritten mathematical introduction, a discussion of Time-reversal invariance, and extensive coverage of a variety of path integrals and their applications. Additional highlights include:
- Clear, accessible treatment of underlying mathematics
- A review of Newtonian, Lagrangian, and Hamiltonian mechanics
- Student understanding of quantum theory is enhanced by separate treatment of mathematical theorems and physical postulates
- Unsurpassed coverage of path integrals and their relevance in contemporary physics
The requisite text for advanced undergraduate- and graduate-level students, Principles of Quantum Mechanics, Second Edition is fully referenced and is supported by many exercises and solutions. The book’s self-contained chapters also make it suitable for independent study as well as for courses in applied disciplines.

Consistent Quantum Theory
相關熱銷的書籍推薦給您
This volume elucidates the consistent quantum theory approach to quantum mechanics at a level accessible to university students in physics, chemistry, mathematics, and computer science, making this an ideal supplement to standard textbooks. Griffiths provides a clear explanation of points not yet adequately treated in traditional texts and which students find confusing, as do their teachers. The book will also be of interest to physicists and philosophers working on the foundations of quantum mechanics.

Problems and Solutions on Thermodynamics and Statistical Mechanics (2版)
類似書籍推薦給您
This volume is a compilation of carefully selected questions at the PhD qualifying exam level, including many actual questions from Columbia University, University of Chicago, MIT, State University of New York at Buffalo, Princeton University, University of Wisconsin and the University of California at Berkeley over a twenty-year period. Topics covered in this book include the laws of thermodynamics, phase changes, Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics and kinetic theory of gases.
This latest edition has been updated with more problems and solutions and the original problems have also been modernized, excluding outdated questions and emphasizing those that rely on calculations. The problems range from fundamental to advanced in a wide range of topics on thermodynamics and statistical physics, easily enhancing the student's knowledge through workable exercises. Simple-to-solve problems play a useful role as a first check of the student's level of knowledge whereas difficult problems will challenge the student's capacity on finding the solutions.

Problems and Solutions in Stochastic Calculus with Applications
類似書籍推薦給您
【簡介】
Problems and Solutions in Stochastic Calculus with Applications exposes readers to simple ideas and proofs in stochastic calculus and its applications. It is intended as a companion to the successful original title Introduction to Stochastic Calculus with Applications (Third Edition) by Fima Klebaner. The current book is authored by three active researchers in the fields of probability, stochastic processes, and their applications in financial mathematics, mathematical biology, and more. The book features problems rooted in their ongoing research. Mathematical finance and biology feature pre-eminently, but the ideas and techniques can equally apply to fields such as engineering and economics.
The problems set forth are accessible to students new to the subject, with most of the problems and their solutions centring on a single idea or technique at a time to enhance the ease of learning. While the majority of problems are relatively straightforward, more complex questions are also set in order to challenge the reader as their understanding grows. The book is suitable for either self-study or for instructors, and there are numerous opportunities to generate fresh problems by modifying those presented, facilitating a deeper grasp of the material.
