An Introduction to Symplectic Geometry (Graduate studies in mathematics, vol.26) - Hardcover
Buch 19 von 190: Graduate Studies in Mathematics
Inhaltsangabe
A text for graduate students with previous courses in analysis and linear algebra, introducing the idea of the formalism of simplectic forms, the simplectic group, and simplectic manifolds. Demonstrates connections between mathematical objects and the formalism of theoretical mechanics, in particular the Hamiltonian formalism, and that of the quantum formalism, namely the process of quantization. Extensive appendices offer definitions and mathematical groundwork. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Graduate Studies in Mathematics Series, No. 26. Hardcover: Laminate Boards. Symplectic geometry is a central topic of current research in mathematics. Indeed, symplectic methods are key ingredients in the study of dynamical systems, differential equations, algebraic geometry, topology, mathematical physics and representations of Lie groups. This book is a true introduction to symplectic geometry, assuming only a general background in analysis and familiarity with linear algebra. It starts with the basics of the geometry of symplectic vector spaces. Then, symplectic manifolds are defined and explored. In addition to the essential classic results, such as Darboux's theorem, more recent results and ideas are also included here, such as symplectic capacity and pseudoholomorphic curves. These ideas have revolutionized the subject. ; Graduate Studies in Mathematics; Vol. 26; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; xvi, 195 pages. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 59216
