An authorised reissue of the long out of print classic textbook, Advanced Calculus by the late Dr Lynn Loomis and Dr Shlomo Sternberg both of Harvard University has been a revered but hard to find textbook for the advanced calculus course for decades.This book is based on an honors course in advanced calculus that the authors gave in the 1960's. The foundational material, presented in the unstarred sections of Chapters 1 through 11, was normally covered, but different applications of this basic material were stressed from year to year, and the book therefore contains more material than was covered in any one year. It can accordingly be used (with omissions) as a text for a year's course in advanced calculus, or as a text for a three-semester introduction to analysis.The prerequisites are a good grounding in the calculus of one variable from a mathematically rigorous point of view, together with some acquaintance with linear algebra. The reader should be familiar with limit and continuity type arguments and have a certain amount of mathematical sophistication. As possible introductory texts, we mention Differential and Integral Calculus by R Courant, Calculus by T Apostol, Calculus by M Spivak, and Pure Mathematics by G Hardy. The reader should also have some experience with partial derivatives.In overall plan the book divides roughly into a first half which develops the calculus (principally the differential calculus) in the setting of normed vector spaces, and a second half which deals with the calculus of differentiable manifolds.

This book shows that with minimal modifications of postulates of non-relativistic quantum mechanics to allow for non-unitary representations of symmetry groups (Lorentz group in particular), one achieves a fully relativistic quantum theory without any of the issues (like negative energies, etc.) that led to the second quantization and QFT. It is shown that quite a few phenomena in elementary particle physics (like for example neutral kaon mixing, CP symmetry and it's supposed breaking) can be explained purely as a consequence of relativistic invariance and relativistic invariance alone. It is shown that by categorizing mesons via the representation of Lorentz group they belong to, one can explain a lot of their properties, as well as a lot of discrepancies in the particle data tables. It is also shown that based on properties of Lorentz representations of products of meson decays, a lot of excited states listed in PDG tables are really several different excitations with similar masses. Relativistic treatment of bound states in momentum space is developed and used to calculate decay widths of various composite particles like Positronium or mesons, and then those decay widths are used to calculate various properties of quarks (like their masses or charges) that were previously misunderstood. In particular, it is shown that quarks are actually quite heavy (around 3.5GeV for up/down quarks) and that while Lorentz invariance allows both fractional values (2/3, -1/3) as well as integer values (2,1), based on (very sparse) available experimental data, integer quark charges are more consistent with observed decay widths than fractional charges.

This book is meant to be a quick refresher for JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE aspirants. With the aim and scope of providing a comprehensive study package for aspirants of JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE, this crash course focuses less on theory and more on concepts, formulae and tips. This is supported by plenty of practice problems based on the latest formats, structure and syllabus of JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE. This is further supplemented by a CD given along with this study kit with fully solved 2012 JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE question paper.Salient features: A Based on the latest pattern and syllabus of JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE A Solved examples, practice problems in each chapter A Previous years question papers fully solved A Less theory and more concepts, formulae and tips A Practice CD with fully solved JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE 2012 question paper A Plenty of problems for practice A Comprehensive, holistic revision of the complete syllabus of JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE A In-depth analysis of the recent trends of JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE A A quick and efficient study kit for JEE (MAIN)/AIEEE aspirants A Facilitates self-study.
