Lorentz and Poincaré invariance : 100 years of relativity

Tác giả: Jong-Ping Hsu, Yuan-Zhong Zhang

This collection of papers provides a broad view of the development of Lorentz and Poincaré invariance and spacetime symmetry throughout the past 100 years. The issues explored in these papers include: (1) formulations of relativity theories in which the speed of light is not a universal constant ...

Lecture notes on quantum mechanics

Tác giả: Samuel D Lindenbaum

This book is written based on lecture notes covering three to four semesters of graduate courses in quantum mechanics.

Introduction to A-trees

Tác giả: Ian Chiswell

The theory of Λ-trees has its origin in the work of Lyndon on length functions in groups. The first definition of an R-tree was given by Tits in 1977. The importance of Λ-trees was established by Morgan and Shalen, who showed how to compactify a generalisation of Teichmüller space for a finitely ...
