Special Functions of Mathematical Physics
1989Discussion of the most important formulae and construction of plots for some functions of mathematical physics relevant to quantum mechanics. These functions are Hermite polynomials, Legendre polynomials and Legendre functions, spherical harmonics, Bessel functions and spherical Bessel functions and Laguerre polynomials.

Mathematics and physics are closely related as disciplines. Their histories are intertwined, sometimes in the person of a single figure such as Newton. Each has helped to give form and emphasis to the other. The practice of physics requires a broad knowledge of mathematics, and the mathematician who seeks wider understanding in his or her own field ...

Precision Mathematics and Approximation Mathematics in Physics
1983The year 1908 saw the publication for the first time of Felix Klein’s lectures on elementary mathematics, under the title Elementarmathematik vom Hoheren Standpunkte Aus.17† In this memorable work, Klein expresses himself repeatedly on fundamental questions of mathematics and their relation to mechanics and physics.

Physics would seem at first sight to be one of those “hard” sciences that requires as much if not more rigor than any. It is, according to the Free Online Dictionary, “the science of matter and energy and interactions between the two.” The Oxford Dictionary gives a few more words but is essentially the same—namely, “the branch of science concerned with

Theoretical Physics and Mathematics
2018Following the method of Galileo, Theoretical Physics uses Mathematics as natural and essential language to describe reality. But even Galileo would probably be surprised by the degree of success of the mathematical description of the world. Simple elegant laws like the Planck radiation formula agree with reality accurately over all the electromagnetic ...

The Mathematical Overdetermination of Physics
1994You are fully entitled not to know what I mean by the “mathematical overdetermination of physics”. As a first approximation to such an understanding I would like to remind you of the related though different so-called theoretical overdetermination of a corpus of observational data.

Mathematical and Physical Papers
2009Sir George Stokes (1819–1903) established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity describing the velocity of a small sphere through a viscous fluid. He published no books, but was a prolific lecturer and writer of papers for the Royal Society, the British Association for the Advancement of Science, the Victoria Institute and other ...
