In the 25 years since their introduction, Higgs bundles have seen a surprising number of interactions within different areas of mathematics and physics.
We introduce the theory of chemical reaction networks and their relation to stochastic Petri nets - important ways of modeling population biology and many other fields.
This volume consists of the scientific work presented at the 14th Regional Conference on Mathematical Physics, held in November 2015 in Islamabad, Pakistan, and dedicated to the memory of Riazuddin, the first Pakistani PhD student of the late Nobel laureate, Abdus Salam, and one of the pioneers who developed physics in Pakistan.
The main goal is to offer to readers a panorama of recent progress in nonlinear physics, complexity and transport with attractive chapters readable by a broad audience.
Starting from Sophus Lie, the invariance of a differential equation under its continuous group of symmetries has become a major tool for solving ordinary and partial differential equations, in particular, nonlinear ones.
The second edition of this book deals, as the first, with the foundations of classical physics from the 'symplectic' point of view, and of quantum mechanics from the 'metaplectic' point of view.
This interesting book provides the physical and mathematical background for a theory describing the universe as a quantum superfluid, and how dark energy and dark matter arise.
This book focuses on the unifying power of the geometrical language in bringing together concepts from many different areas of physics, ranging from classical physics to the theories describing the four fundamental interactions of Nature - gravitational, electromagnetic, strong nuclear, and weak nuclear.
This book deals with equations of mathematical physics as the different modifications of the KdV equation, the Camassa-Holm type equations, several modifications of Burger's equation, the Hunter-Saxton equation and others.
This book provides a variety of methods required for the analysis and solution of equations which arise in the modeling of phenomena from the natural and engineering sciences.
This book introduces systematically the eigenfunction method, a new approach to the group representation theory which was developed by the authors in the 1970's and 1980's in accordance with the concept and method used in quantum mechanics.
This invaluable book presents gravitation and gauge fields as interrelated topics with a common physical and mathematical foundation, such as gauge theory of gravitation and other fields, giving emphasis to the physicist's point of view.
This book is a comprehensive introduction to the application of continuous symmetries and their Lie algebras to ordinary and partial differential equations.

This textbook comprehensively introduces students and researchers to the application of continuous symmetries and their Lie algebras to ordinary and partial differential equations.
This collection of counter-examples highlights the theory of differential equations and related topics which is now playing an enormously important role in the area of science, engineering and mathematics.
This edition of the invaluable text Modern Differential Geometry for Physicists contains an additional chapter that introduces some of the basic ideas of general topology needed in differential geometry.
This textbook, pitched at the advanced-undergraduate to beginning-graduate level, focuses on mathematical topics of relevance in contemporary physics that are not usually covered in texts at the same level.
This unique book provides a streamlined, self-contained and modern text for a one-semester mathematical methods course with an emphasis on concepts important from the application point of view.
With the great progress in numerical methods and the speed of the modern personal computer, if you can formulate the correct physics equations, then you only need to program a few lines of code to get the answer.
Newer Edition Available: Group Theory for Physicists (2nd Edition)This textbook explains the fundamental concepts and techniques of group theory by making use of language familiar to physicists.
