Synopsis

This book covers one of the most efficient approximation methods for the theoretical analysis and solution of problems in theoretical physics and applied mathematics. The method can be applied to any field involving second order ordinary differential equations. It is written with practical needs in mind, with 50 solved problems covering a broad range of subjects and making clear which concepts and results of the general theory are needed in each case.

About this title

Book Description

This book covers one of the most efficient approximation methods for the theoretical analysis and solution of problems in theoretical physics and applied mathematics. The method can be applied to any field involving second order ordinary differential equations. It is written with practical needs in mind, with 50 solved problems covering a broad range of subjects and making clear which concepts and results of the general theory are needed in each case. Ideal as a reference for researchers and an introduction to advanced aspects of quantum mechanics for graduate students.

Review

"In my opinion [the book] will be equally valuable both as an introduction for graduate students and as a reference work for more experienced researchers." Mathematical Reviews
