Arbitrary fields) and on complex geometry including Kahler manifolds that could serve as an informal introduction to the subject for a theoretical physicist (having in mind the appliactions in physics, e.g. Nakahara - The Geometry of Physics, An Introduction by T. Schutz - Geometry, Topology, and Physics by M. Theodore Frankel, The Geometry of Physics? In fact, my goal was to present a beautiful chapter of the interaction between Differential Geometry (Mathematics) and General Relativity (Physics). A general introduction is in section 1.1d of. Geometrical methods of mathematical physics by B. Book: The Geometry of Physics: An Introduction, 2nd edition. For a more coherent exposition starting see also at geometry of physics. I'm looking for 2 For differential geometry, the book "Introduction to smooth manifolds" by Lee is good, but it presupposes (a little bit) of topology. Geometry and Physics" addresses mathematicians wanting to understand modern physics, and physicists wanting to learn geometry. A discussion from the more general perspective of Hamiltonian dynamics on Lie groups is in section 4.4 of. Format: PDF Language: English ISBN10: 0521833302. Author: Theodore Frankel Pages: 720. There are many excellent texts in Differential Geometry but very few have an early introduction to differential forms and their applications to Physics. I am looking to learn/study up on differential geometry (including n-forms, tensors, etc) and perhaps group theory so as to better understand the mathematics behind some of the physics that I'm interested in (General Relativity, and the foundations of Quantum Mechanics with extensions perhaps into QFT). A historical introduction to applications in physics of more homotopy theoretic higher category theory (revolving around BV-BRST formalism) is in:.
