Differential forms are a powerful mathematical technique to help students, researchers, and engineers solve problems in geometry and analysis, and their applications. They both unify and simplify results in concrete settings, and allow them to be clearly and effectively generalized to more abstract settings. Differential Forms has gained high recognition in the mathematical and scientific community as a powerful computational tool in solving research problems and simplifying very abstract problems. Differential Forms, Second Edition, is a solid resource for students and professionals needing a general understanding of the mathematical theory and to be able to apply that theory into practice. - Provides a solid theoretical basis of how to develop and apply differential forms to real research problems - Includes computational methods to enable the reader to effectively use differential forms - Introduces theoretical concepts in an accessible manner

This text provides a framework for describing and organizing the basic forces of nature and the interactions of subatomic particles. A detailed and self-contained mathematical account of gauge theory, it is geared toward beginning graduate students and advanced undergraduates in mathematics and physics. This well-organized treatment supplements its rigor with intuitive ideas. Starting with an examination of principal fiber bundles and connections, the text explores curvature; particle fields, Lagrangians, and gauge invariance; Lagrange's equation for particle fields; and the inhomogeneous field equation. Additional topics include free Dirac electron fields; interactions; calculus on frame bundle; and unification of gauge fields and gravitation. The text concludes with references, a selected bibliography, an index of notation, and a general index.

This text begins with the essentials, advancing to applications and studies of physical disciplines, including classical and irreversible thermodynamics, electrodynamics, and the theory of gauge fields. Geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students, it develops most of the theory and requires only a familiarity with upper-division algebra and mathematical analysis. "Essential." — SciTech Book News. 1985 edition.
