Description for Diffusion, Quantum Theory, and Radically Elementary Mathematics. (MN-47)
Paperback. Explains diffusive motion and its relation to both nonrelativistic quantum theory and quantum field theory. This book shows how diffusive motion concepts lead to a radical reexamination of the structure of mathematical analysis. Editor(s): Faris, William G. Series: Mathematical Notes. Num Pages: 256 pages, 32 line illus. BIC Classification: PHQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 229 x 152 x 13. Weight in Grams: 342.
Diffusive motion--displacement due to the cumulative effect of irregular fluctuations--has been a fundamental concept in mathematics and physics since Einstein's work on Brownian motion. It is also relevant to understanding various aspects of quantum theory. This book explains diffusive motion and its relation to both nonrelativistic quantum theory and quantum field theory. It shows how diffusive motion concepts lead to a radical reexamination of the structure of mathematical analysis. The book's inspiration is Princeton University mathematics professor Edward Nelson's influential work in probability, functional analysis, nonstandard analysis, stochastic mechanics, and logic. The book can be used as a tutorial or ... Read more
