Diverses Questions De Mecanique Et De Thermodynamique Classiques Et Relativistes - Edition Etablie D''Apres Un Manuscrit Inedit De Louis De Broglie, Edite Et Preface Par Georges Lochak, Michel Karatchentzeff Et Daniel Fargue, Fondati

by Louis De Broglie

26,49€ + 10% CARD

 Ce livre reproduit un cours inédit de Louis de Broglie, de 1948, dans lequel il réexamine, grâce à la relativité, les analogies entre la mécanique et la thermodynamique étudiés par Helmholtz, Boltzmann et Planck avant le succès de la mécanique statistique. C''est le premier d''une série de travaux de de Broglie en vue de prolonger sa découverte de 1924 vers une mécanique ondulatoire des processus irréversibles, en unifiant les principes de Fermat, de Maupertuis et de Carnot-Clausius. L''intérêt du livre est triple: 1. une généralisation de la mécanique quantique qui décrirait les transitions quantiques en tant que processus dynamiques; 2. revisiter la physique classique en compagnie de l''un des plus grands physiciens du siècle; 3. découvrir quelques grands idées oubliées de la physique classique.

Ten Physical Applications Of Spectral Zeta Functions

by Emilio Elizalde

95,40€ + 10% CARD

 This monography is, in the first place, a commented guide that invites the reader to plunge into the thrilling world ofzeta functions and their appli cations in physics. Different aspects ofthis field ofknowledge are considered, as one can see specifically in the Table of Contents. The level of the book is elementary. It is intended for people with no or little knowledge of the subject. Everything is explained in full detail, in particular, the mathematical difficulties and tricky points, which too often constitute an insurmountable barrier for those who would have liked to be come aquainted with that matter but never dared to ask (or did not manage to understand more complete, higher-level treatises). In this sense the present work is to be considered as a basic introduction and exercise collection for other books that have appeared recently. Concerning the physical applications of the method ofzeta-function reg ularization here described, quite a big choice is presented. The reader must be warned, however, that I have not tried to explain the underlying physi cal theories in complete detail (since this is undoubtedly out of scope), but rather to illustrate - simply and clearly - the precise way the method must be applied. Sometimes zeta regularization is explicitly compared in the text with other procedures the reader is supposed to be more familiar with (such as cut-off or dimensional regularization).

Time In Quantum Mechanics

95,40€ + 10% CARD

 Time and quantum mechanics have, each of them separately, captivated s- entists and laymen alike, as shown by the abundance of popular publications on "time" or on the many quantum mysteries or paradoxes. We too have been seduced by these two topics, and in particular by their combination. Indeed, the treatment of time in quantum mechanics is one of the important and challenging open questions in the foundations of quantum theory. This book describes the problems, and the attempts and achievements in de?ning, formalizing and measuring di?erent time quantities in quantum theory, such as the parametric (clock) time, tunneling times, decay times, dwell times, delay times, arrival times or jump times. The theoretical analysis of several of these quantities has been controversial and is still subject to debate. For example, there are literally hundreds of research papers on the tunneling time. In fact, the standard recipe to link the observables and the formalism does not seem to apply, at least in an obvious manner, to time observables. This has posed the challenge of extending the domain of ordinary quantum mechanics.

Polynomial Approximation Of Differential Equations

by Daniele Funaro

118,59€ + 10% CARD

 This book is devoted to the analysis of approximate solution techniques for differential equations, based on classical orthogonal polynomials. These techniques are popularly known as spectral methods. In the last few decades, there has been a growing interest in this subject. As a matter offact, spectral methods provide a competitive alternative to other standard approximation techniques, for a large variety of problems. Initial ap plications were concerned with the investigation of periodic solutions of boundary value problems using trigonometric polynomials. Subsequently, the analysis was extended to algebraic polynomials. Expansions in orthogonal basis functions were preferred, due to their high accuracy and flexibility in computations. The aim of this book is to present a preliminary mathematical background for be ginners who wish to study and perform numerical experiments, or who wish to improve their skill in order to tackle more specific applications. In addition, it furnishes a com prehensive collection of basic formulas and theorems that are useful for implementations at any level of complexity. We tried to maintain an elementary exposition so that no experience in functional analysis is required.

Stochastic Quantization

by Mikio Namiki

145,09€ + 10% CARD

 The Parisi-Wu stochastic quantization method gives quantum mechanics as the thermal-equilibrium limit of a hypothetical stochastic process with respect to some fictitious time other than ordinary time. I believe that the stochastic quantization method has the potential to extend the territory of quantum mechanics and of quantum field theory.

Quantum Gravity, Quantum Cosmology And Lorentzian Geometries

by Giampiero Esposito

59,61€ + 10% CARD

 This book is aimed at theoretical and mathematical physicists and mathematicians interested in modern gravitational physics. I have thus tried to use language familiar to readers working on classical and quantum gravity, paying attention both to difficult calculations and to existence theorems, and discussing in detail the current literature. The first aim of the book is to describe recent work on the problem of boundary conditions in one-loop quantum cosmology. The motivation of this research was to under stand whether supersymmetric theories are one-loop finite in the presence of boundaries, with application to the boundary-value problemsoccurring in quantum cosmology. Indeed, higher-loop calculations in the absence of boundaries are already available in the litera ture, showing that supergravity is not finite. I believe, however, that one-loop calculations in the presence of boundaries are more fundamental, in that they provide a more direct check of the inconsistency of supersymmetric quantum cosmology from the perturbative point of view. It therefore appears that higher-order calculations are not strictly needed, if the one-loop test already yields negative results. Even though the question is not yet settled, this research has led to many interesting, new applications of areas of theoretical and mathematical physics such as twistor theory in flat space, self-adjointness theory, the generalized Riemann zeta-function, and the theory of boundary counterterms in super gravity. I have also compared in detail my work with results by other authors, explaining, whenever possible, the origin of different results, the limits of my work and the unsolved problems.
