  • Scale Invariance in Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

    by Edson Denis Leonel ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This book aims to explore the scale invariance present in certain nonlinear dynamical systems. We will discuss both ordinary differential equations (ODEs) and discrete-time maps. The loss of predictability in the temporal evolution of nearby initial conditions, and the resulting exponential divergence of their trajectories in phase space, leads to the concept of chaos. Some observables studied in ... Read more

  • Dynamical Phase Transitions in Chaotic Systems

    by Edson Denis Leonel ...
    Series series Nonlinear Physical Science
    This book discusses some scaling properties and characterizes two-phase transitions for chaotic dynamics in nonlinear systems described by mappings. The chaotic dynamics is determined by the unpredictability of the time evolution of two very close initial conditions in the phase space. It yields in an exponential divergence from each other as time passes. The chaotic diffusion is investigated, ... Read more

  • Scaling Laws in Dynamical Systems

    by Edson Denis Leonel ...
    Series series Nonlinear Physical Science
    This book discusses many of the common scaling properties observed in some nonlinear dynamical systems mostly described by mappings. The unpredictability of the time evolution of two nearby initial conditions in the phase space together with the exponential divergence from each other as time goes by lead to the concept of chaos. Some of the observables in nonlinear systems exhibit characteristics ... Read more

  • General Relativity

    by Robert M. Wald ...
    "Truly excellent . . . sophisticated . . . will probably be read by every student of relativity, astrophysics, and field theory for years to come." —James W. York, Physics Today"Wald's book is clearly the first textbook on general relativity with a totally modern point of view; and it succeeds very well where others are only partially successful. The book includes full discussions of many ... Read more

  • Gravity

    Newtonian, Post-Newtonian, Relativistic

    by Eric Poisson, Clifford M. Will ...
    This textbook explores approximate solutions to general relativity and their consequences. It offers a unique presentation of Einstein's theory by developing powerful methods that can be applied to astrophysical systems. Beginning with a uniquely thorough treatment of Newtonian gravity, the book develops post-Newtonian and post-Minkowskian approximation methods to obtain weak-field solutions to ... Read more

  • Quantum Gravity

    by Carlo Rovelli ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    Quantum gravity is perhaps the most important open problem in fundamental physics. It is the problem of merging quantum mechanics and general relativity, the two great conceptual revolutions in the physics of the twentieth century. The loop and spinfoam approach, presented in this 2004 book, is one of the leading research programs in the field. The first part of the book discusses the ... Read more

  • The Large Scale Structure of Space-Time

    by S. W. Hawking, G. F. R. Ellis ...
    Series series Cambridge Monographs on Mathematical Physics
    Einstein's General Theory of Relativity leads to two remarkable predictions: first, that the ultimate destiny of many massive stars is to undergo gravitational collapse and to disappear from view, leaving behind a 'black hole' in space; and secondly, that there will exist singularities in space-time itself. These singularities are places where space-time begins or ends, and the presently known ... Read more

  • An Introduction to Statistical Mechanics and Thermodynamics

    by Robert H. Swendsen ...
    Series series Oxford Graduate Texts
    This text presents the two complementary aspects of thermal physics as an integrated theory of the properties of matter. Conceptual understanding is promoted by thorough development of basic concepts. In contrast to many texts, statistical mechanics, including discussion of the required probability theory, is presented first. This provides a statistical foundation for the concept of entropy, which ... Read more
