This book discusses the basic tools of mathematical physics for physicists, mathematicians, and engineers. It reveals the indissoluble connection between physical ideas and mathematical concepts, emphasizing the physical origin and flexibility of the equations.
This book proposes a model of light knot electronic structure, challenging the interpretation of quantum entanglement and proving a paradox in the uncertainty relationship. It establishes the foundation for a deterministic, local-realism quantum mechanics.
This book investigates dynamical mass generation in four-fermion models, exploring the composite Higgs boson and effective chiral Lagrangians. It proves these models describe the region between asymptotic freedom and quark confinement.
Philosophical Semantics
This book offers an innovative systematic approach to meaning and reference, unifying insights from philosophers like Wittgenstein and Frege while exposing errors of formalists from Quine to Kripke. It shows how the cartography of philosophy of language can be redrawn.
Semiconductor silicon is the basic material of modern electronics. Its properties are determined by defects in its crystal structure, but a complete description of these defects has been a mystery—until now. This book solves it using classical and probabilistic approaches.
This book is devoted to a quasi-classical treatment of quantum transitions, with an emphasis on magnetic and electric dipolar resonance. In addition to known results, it presents parametric resonance for electric dipoles, which may lead to spontaneous electric polarization.
This book is a monograph on Albert Einstein’s odyssey to Special and General Relativity. Bringing together recent studies, it offers an in-depth analysis of the genesis of his theories, Einstein’s own derivations, and the philosophical perspectives of his work.
General Relativity Conflict and Rivalries
Galina Weinstein investigates Albert Einstein and his interactions with various scientists, focusing on their implicit and explicit responses to his work. This analysis reveals the central figures who influenced Einstein during his work on the general theory of relativity.
