{"product_id":"mathematical-analysis-of-problems-in-vladimir-zorich-9783642148125","title":"Mathematical Analysis of Problems in the Natural Sciences","description":"Based on a two-semester course aimed at illustrating various interactions of \"pure mathematics\" with other sciences, such as hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, statistical physics and information theory, this text unifies three general topics of analysis and physics, which are as follows: the dimensional analysis of physical quantities, which contains various applications including Kolmogorov's model for turbulence; functions of very large number of variables and the principle of concentration along with the non-linear law of large numbers, the geometric meaning of the Gauss and Maxwell distributions, and the Kotelnikov-Shannon theorem; and, finally, classical thermodynamics and contact geometry, which covers two main principles of thermodynamics in the language of differential forms, contact distributions, the Frobenius theorem and the Carnot-Caratheodory metric. It includes problems, historical remarks, and Zorich's popular article, \"Mathematics as language and method.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vladimir Zorich\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3642148123\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783642148125\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/29\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 133\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.30w x 0.60d","brand":"Vladimir Zorich","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44809923199231,"sku":"9783642148125","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e7508d6a-d13f-4483-827a-3676f20a4b48.jpg?v=1707927842","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mathematical-analysis-of-problems-in-vladimir-zorich-9783642148125","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
