Arnold Sommerfeld Libros

Originating from Felix Klein's 1895 lectures, this work delves into the mathematical study of the theory of the top. It offers a rich exploration of concepts that remain relevant and enlightening for both students and mathematicians today, making it a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of this field.

A. Sommerfeld's "Mathematische Theorie der Diffraction" marks a milestone in optical theory, full of insights that are still relevant today. In a stunning tour de force, Sommerfeld derives the first mathematically rigorous solution of an optical diffraction problem. Indeed, his diffraction analysis is a surprisingly rich and complex mix of pure and applied mathematics, and his often-cited diffraction solution is presented only as an application of a much more general set of mathematical results. This complete translation, reflecting substantial scholarship, is the first publication in English of Sommerfeld's original work. The extensive notes by the translators are rich in historical background and provide many technical details for the reader.

Focusing on the theory of the top, this volume offers a comprehensive exploration stemming from Felix Klein's 1895 lecture at the University of Göttingen, enhanced through his collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld. It presents a detailed account of the foundational concepts as well as recent advancements in the field, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the mathematical and physical aspects of rotational dynamics.
