The Theory of Groups and Quantum Mechanics

The Theory Of Groups And Quantum Mechanics (Dover Books On Mathematics) is a textbook that applies group theory to quantum mechanics. The books first covers unitary geometry groups and their representations and quantum theory. It then discusses the applications of the concepts themselves some of which are Lorentz force rotation permutation groups symmetric permutation groups and the algebra of symmetric transformations.Group theory is the study of algebraic structures known as groups. The group concept is central to abstract algebra. Quantum mechanics on the other hand is a branch of physics that deals with physical phenomena at nanoscopic scales. The phenomena are in the order of the Planck Constant. This book deals with the concepts that arise from the marriage of group theory and quantum mechanics.The Theory Of Groups And Quantum Mechanics is the first ordered presentation of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity. The Theory Of Groups And Quantum Mechanics (Dover Books On Mathematics) was published by Dover Publications Inc. in 2003 and is available in paperback. Key Features: First published in the German in 1931 this book was translated by the reputed American cosmologist H P Robertson.
