Linear Algebra for Quantum Theory By Per-Olov Löwdin 1998 | 472 Pages | ISBN: 0471199583 | PDF | 15 MB Essential mathematical tools for the study of modern quantumtheory.Linear Algebra for Quantum Theory offers an excellent survey ofthose aspects of set theory and the theory of linear spaces andtheir mappings that are indispensable to the study of quantumtheory. Unlike more conventional treatments, this text postponesits discussion of the binary product concept until later chapters, thus allowing many important properties of the mappings to bederived without it.The book begins with a thorough exploration of set theoryfundamentals, including mappings, cardinalities of sets, andarithmetic and theory of complex numbers. Next is an introductionto linear spaces, with coverage of linear operators, eigenvalue andthe stability problem of linear operators, and matrices withspecial properties.Material on binary product spaces features self-adjoint operatorsin a space of indefinite metric, binary product spaces with apositive definite metric, properties of the Hilbert space, andmore. The final section is devoted to axioms of quantum theoryformulated as trace algebra. Throughout, chapter-end problem setshelp reinforce absorption of the material while letting readerstest their problem-solving skills.Ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students intheoretical and computational chemistry and physics, Linear Algebrafor Quantum Theory provides the mathematical means necessary toaccess and understand the complex world of quantum theory. James P. Duffy, "Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt: The Rivalry That Divided America" English | ISBN: 1596986018 | 2010 | 270 pages | EPUB | 438 KB Was aviation pioneer and popular American hero Charles A. Lindbergh a Nazi sympathizer and anti-Semite? Or was he the target of a vicious personal vendetta by President Roosevelt? In Lindbergh vs. Roosevelt, author James Duffy tackles these questions head-on, by examining the conflicting personalities, aspirations, and actions of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Charles A. Lindbergh. Painting a politically incorrect portrait of both men, Duffy shows how the hostility between these two American giants divided the nation on both domestic and international affairs. From canceling U.S. air mail contracts to intervening in World War II, Lindberg and Roosevelt's clash of ideas and opinions shaped the nation's policies here and abroad. Insightful, and engaging, B.

Carol A. Berry, "Learning from Henri Nouwen and Vincent van Gogh: A Portrait of the Compassionate Life" English | ISBN: 0830846514 | 2019 | 144 pages | EPUB | 19 MB Carol Berry and her husband met and befriended Henri Nouwen when she sat in his course on compassion at Yale Divinity School in the 1970s. At the request of Henri Nouwen's literary estate, she has written this book, which includes unpublished material recorded from Nouwen's lectures. As an art educator, Berry is uniquely situated to develop Nouwen's work on Vincent van Gogh and to add her own research. She fills in background on the much misunderstood spiritual context of van Gogh's work, and reinterprets van Gogh's art (presented here in full color) in light of Nouwen's lectures. Berry also brings in her own experience in ministry, sharing how Nouwen and van Gogh, each in his own way, led her to the richness and beauty of the compassionate life.
