Manifolds and Mechanics, Paperback / softback Book

Manifolds and Mechanics Paperback / softback

Part of the Australian Mathematical Society Lecture Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book provides an easy introduction to the theory of differentiable manifolds.

The authors then show how the theory can be used to develop, simply but rigorously, the theory of Lanrangian mechanics directly from Newton's laws.

Unnecessary abstraction has been avoided to produce an account suitable for students in mathematics or physics who have taken courses in advanced calculus.
