Tensors For Inquiring Minds (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Tensors for Inquiring Minds takes readers on a journey to discover tensors - powerful mathematical concepts used in many areas of modern science.

Starting from the familiar ground of numbers and operations with numbers, readers are invited to re-examine these ideas in a new light, slowly building towards a deep understanding of the advanced mathematical concepts which they underpin. The overriding goal of this book is to explain tensors, specifically, by showing them in action and in relation to less complicated concepts, such as numbers and vectors.

Autorenporträt

Yury Deshko holds a Master's in theoretical physics (with a focus on general relativity) from Belarus State University and a doctorate in physics from the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY). His research at CUNY focused on experimental spectroscopy and diamond photonics. He served as a research associate at City College of New York until joining the semiconductor industry as a photonics engineer. Yury Deshko's pedagogical passion led him to teaching, for a number of years, the introduction to the special theory of relativity in summer schools of Johns Hopkins University and Columbia University.
