About this title

Synopsis

Takhtadzhian, also spelled Takhtajan, (mathematics, Stony Brook U.) offers a textbook based on a course he has long taught to second year graduates of mathematics who were assumed to have no prior knowledge of physics. He introduces the basic concepts and methods of quantum mechanics, emphasizing those aspects that have influenced the recent course of mathematics in the same manner that classical physics did from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The material can be used for a one-year course or two one-semester courses. Annotation �2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Review

"...heaven-sent to the aforementioned analytic number theorist, i.e., me, because it is mathematics, not physics: the exposition is peppered with definitions and theorems, and proofs!, proofs!, proofs!..." ---- Michael Berg for MAA Reviews

"By a cleaver selection of the material and the clear way of exposing it, the book is recommended for graduate students in mathematics looking for applications in physics, as well as for student in physics desiring to be acquainted, in a rigorous but, at the same time, quick and accessible manner, with the basic mathematical tools used in quantum mathematics." ---- Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai, Mathematica
