The formalism is then applied to three-dimensional problems, a very important field of application, using both algebraic and analytical methods. The subsequent chapters offer a thorough treatment of particles in electromagnetic fields, and of identical particles, which leads seamlessly on to field quantisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eEven complex topics are explained clearly and with illustrating examples. Numerous mathematical digressions elucidate general mathematical concepts. Particular highlights of the book include the algebraic proof of the integer nature of orbital angular momentum, the detailed investigation of the connection between Clifford algebras and spinors, and a linearisation approach to the Schrödinger equation. The mathematics of gauge theories provides a coherent formulation of many topological phenomena, such as magnetic monopoles, the Aharonov–Bohm effect and Landau levels.

He then worked as a research assistant at the Institute for Theoretical Physics, working on Yang–Mills theories and quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In his doctoral thesis he investigated vortex condensation and quark confinement in lattice Yang–Mills theories in centre projection. His subsequent professional career led him into the area of high-performance computing and its numerous scientific and industrial applications. However, his passion remains theoretical physics and its mathematical methods.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e28 January 2027\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer Berlin Heidelberg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImprint: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSpringer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9783662742563\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFormat: \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePaperback softback\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51691699536012,"sku":"9783662742563","price":53.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783662742563","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
