Paperback. This book provides an accessible introduction to mathematical methods essential for physics, engineering, and modern computational analysis. Starting from foundational topics such as ordinary and partial differential equations, readers are then introduced to powerful techniques including Fourier and Laplace transforms, series expansions, matrix and eigenvalue methods, and numerical strategies such as iterative refinement.Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering: Practical Applications emphasizes intuitive understanding and real-world applications: why the Lagrangian in classical mechanics takes the form TV; how stability and sensitivity analysis connect to condition numbers and perturbation theory; and how matrix representations provide insight into optimisation and numerical stability.Numerical examples and step-by-step derivations encourage active problem-solving and demonstrate how abstract methods translate into practical computations. It also highlights how these mathematical tools form the foundation of many techniques used in contemporary machine learning; from optimization algorithms and least-squares regression to spectral methods, kernel functions, and high-dimensional data analysis.This is an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying mathematical methods for physics and/or engineering. Readers are equipped not only a versatile toolkit of methods, but also a deeper conceptual understanding of when, where, and why each tool is appropriate - empowering them to approach problems in physics and engineering.Key features:Provides a toolkit of mathematical methodsPedagogically focused, with homework problems included with each chapterCovers exciting topics including high-dimensional data analysis and machine learningChong Qi is an Associate Professor in the Division of Nuclear Science and Engineering, Department of Physics, at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm. His research spans theoretical nuclear physics, many-body physics, and computational physics. He teaches courses in mathematical physics, subatomic and nuclear physics, and quantum many-body theory, and supervises students at both undergraduate and graduate levels in nuclear physics and nuclear engineering. He earned his PhD from Peking University, followed by postdoctoral research at KTH, and has since held visiting professorships at several universities around the world, including Sun Yat-sen University, where a large part of this book was written. He also serves in various editorial roles and is an honorary member of the Romanian Academy of Scientists. This book provides an accessible introduction to mathematical methods essential for physics, engineering, and modern computational analysis, starting from foundational topics ending with more powerful techniques.

This book provides an accessible introduction to mathematical methods essential for physics, engineering, and modern computational analysis. Starting from foundational topics such as ordinary and partial differential equations, readers are then introduced to powerful techniques including Fourier and Laplace transforms, series expansions, matrix and eigenvalue methods, and numerical strategies such as iterative refinement.
“Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering: Practical Applications” emphasizes intuitive understanding and real-world applications: why the Lagrangian in classical mechanics takes the form T-V; how stability and sensitivity analysis connect to condition numbers and perturbation theory; and how matrix representations provide insight into optimisation and numerical stability.
Numerical examples and step-by-step derivations encourage active problem-solving and demonstrate how abstract methods translate into practical computations. It also highlights how these mathematical tools form the foundation of many techniques used in contemporary machine learning; from optimization algorithms and least-squares regression to spectral methods, kernel functions, and high-dimensional data analysis.
This is an ideal textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying mathematical methods for physics and/or engineering. Readers are equipped not only a versatile toolkit of methods, but also a deeper conceptual understanding of when, where, and why each tool is appropriate - empowering them to approach problems in physics and engineering.
Key features:
- Provides a toolkit of mathematical methods
- Pedagogically focused, with homework problems included with each chapter
- Covers exciting topics including high-dimensional data analysis and machine learning

Tiene derecho a rescindir este contrato en un plazo de 14 días sin dar ningún motivo.
El periodo de desistimiento vencerá a los 14 días desde que usted, o un tercero que no sea el transportista e indicado por usted, adquiera la posesión física del último bien o del último lote o pieza.
Para ejercer el derecho de desistimiento, complete de forma electrónica y envíe una declaración clara en nuestro sitio web, desde "Mis compras" en "Mi cuenta". Le enviaremos sin demora un acuse de recibo de dicho desistimiento a través de un soporte duradero (por ejemplo, por correo electrónico).
Para cumplir con el plazo de desistimiento, basta con que envíe su comunicación relativa al ejercicio del derecho de desistimiento antes de que venza el periodo de desistimiento.
Efectos del desistimiento
Si rescinde este contrato, le reembolsaremos todos los pagos que hayamos recibido de usted, incluidos los gastos de envío (excepto los gastos adicionales que surjan si elige un tipo de envío que no sea el tipo de envío estándar más económico que ofrecemos).
Podemos hacer una deducción del reembolso por la pérdida de valor de cualquier bien suministrado, si la pérdida es el resultado de una manipulación innecesaria por su parte.
Efectuaremos el reembolso sin demoras indebidas y, a más tardar, 14 días después de que se nos informe de su decisión de rescindir este contrato.
Efectuaremos el reembolso utilizando el mismo medio de pago que utilizó para la transacción inicial, a menos que haya acordado expresamente lo contrario; en cualquier caso, no incurrirá en ningún cargo como resultado de dicho reembolso.
Podremos retener el reembolso hasta que hayamos recibido los bienes o hasta que nos haya presentado una prueba de que los ha devuelto, lo que ocurra primero.
