(Paperback)

Provides a coherent account of the area of analysis that involves the Heisenberg group, quantization, the Weyl calculus, the metaplectic representation, wave packets, and related concepts. This book features: a treatment of the representations of the Heisenberg group, their associated integral transforms, and the metaplectic representation.

While most introductions to statistical mechanics are either too mathematical or too physical, Colin Thompson's book combines mathematical rigor with familiar physical materials. Following introductory chapters on kinetic theory, thermodynamics, the Gibbs ensembles, and the thermodynamic limit, later chapters discuss the classical theories of phase

(Paperback, New and Expanded Edition)

Offers an introduction to the concepts and techniques of statistical physics that students of biology, biochemistry, and biophysics must know. This title provides a basis for understanding random motions of molecules, subcellular particles, or cells, or of processes that depend on such motion or are markedly affected by it.

(Hardback)

Intended for upper-level undergraduate courses, this book discusses the techniques of statistical and thermal physics. It outlines the relation between the macroscopic and microscopic worlds, and presents thermodynamic reasoning as an independent way of thinking about macroscopic systems. It also introduces probability concepts and techniques.

A state-of-the-art survey of both classical and quantum lattice gas models, this two-volume work will cover the rigorous mathematical studies of such models as the Ising and Heisenberg, an area in which scientists have made enormous strides during the past twenty-five years. This first volume addresses, among many topics, the mathematical backgroun
