D. Mariano Mataix Lorda, desde 1.978, ha publicado esta extensísima colección de problemas clásicos de ingenio, curiosidades, biografías,... del mundo matemático.Sobre la colección Mataix;Los dos pri

Esta obra en dos volúmenes ha surgido del curso de Álgebra lineal y Geometría analítica que el primero de los firmantes ha dado en la Universidad técnica de Munich para estudiantes de primer aÑo de Matematicas y Fisica. El libro esta pensado para seguir este curso, pero tambien para que un estudiante de primer ao pueda estudiarlo por si mismo.

Al preparar estos tomos el equipo de curso ha querido proporcionar el tipo de Matemáticas que resulta útil particularmente para aquellos estudiantes que ya poseen cierto conocimiento de una ciencia o de una tecnologia, pero que antes de adentrarse en las materias de su especialidad necesitan profundizar en la captacion de los conceptos matematicos en que se basan las tecnicas del Calculo y del Çlgebra.

"En aquest volum s'estudia les nocions de la topologia de Rn, que creiem necessari per analitzar amb un mínim de rigor el concepte continutat d?una funció, que tractem en aquest mateix volum, i el concepte de derivabilitat, que analitzem en el volum seguent. Aixi mateix, es realitza un estudi de les successionsi series numeriques, nocio que emprarem tambe per definir el limit d?una funcio en un punt."

Mathematical Analysis (often called Advanced Calculus) is generally found by students to be one of their hardest courses in Mathematics. This text uses the so-called sequential approach to continuity, differentiability and integration to make it easier to understand the subject.Topics that are generally glossed over in the standard Calculus courses are given careful study here. For example, what exactly is a 'continuous' function? And how exactly can one give a careful definition of 'integral'? The latter question is often one of the mysterious points in a Calculus course - and it is quite difficult to give a rigorous treatment of integration! The text has a large number of diagrams and helpful margin notes; and uses many graded examples and exercises, often with complete solutions, to guide students through the tricky points. It is suitable for self-study or use in parallel with a standard university course on the subject.

Modern developments in theoretical and applied science depend on knowledge of the properties of mathematical functions, from elementary trigonometric functions to the multitude of special functions. These functions appear whenever natural phenomena are studied, engineering problems are formulated, and numerical simulations are performed. They also crop up in statistics, financial models, and economic analysis. Using them effectively requires practitioners to have ready access to a reliable collection of their properties. This handbook results from a 10-year project conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology with an international group of expert authors and validators. Printed in full colour, it is destined to replace its predecessor, the classic but long-outdated Handbook of Mathematical Functions, edited by Abramowitz and Stegun. Includes a DVD with a searchable PDF of each chapter.

Gauss's law for electric fields, Gauss's law for magnetic fields, Faraday's law, and the Ampere-Maxwell law are four of the most influential equations in science. In this guide for students, each equation is the subject of an entire chapter, with detailed, plain-language explanations of the physical meaning of each symbol in the equation, for both the integral and differential forms. The final chapter shows how Maxwell's equations may be combined to produce the wave equation, the basis for the electromagnetic theory of light. This book is a wonderful resource for undergraduate and graduate courses in electromagnetism and electromagnetics. A website hosted by the author at www.cambridge.org/9780521701471 contains interactive solutions to every problem in the text as well as audio podcasts to walk students through each chapter.
