Lectures on Selected Topics in Mathematical Physics - Introduction to Lie theory with applications

William A Schwalm

Summary

This book provides an introduction to Lie Theory for first year graduate students and professional physicists who may not have across the theory in their studies. In particular, it is a summary overview of the theory of finite groups, a brief description of a manifold, and then an informal development of the theory of one-parameter Lie groups, especially as they apply to ordinary differential equations. The treatment is informal, but systematic and reasonably self-contained, as it assumes a familiarity with basic physics and applied calculus, but it does not assume additional mathematical training. Interested readers should have a fair chance of finding symmetries of a second order differential equation and should be able to use it to reduce the order of the differential equation.

Introduction to Agile Modeling

Kevin Aguanno

During requirements gathering and solution design, one of the most common techniques used to create a shared vision is modeling. Over the years, many tools and techniques have emerged for modeling in different fields that take in to account the various complexities of the solutions involved; however, one drawback that most share in common is the need to understand a modeling language (or notation technique) to create or even read and understand the models.The agile management movement has turned its attention to modeling in an effort to streamline the process and to more efficiently deliver needed stakeholder value during the modeling process.  The result is a practice called agile modeling that focuses on creating models tailored to the specific information needs of their consumers, using language and techniques shared by both creator and consumer, and employing collaborative modeling strategies.In this short recording of a teleseminar, learn the underlying principles of agile modeling, some practical techniques that are used, and how you can get started today.

The Expectant Universe

James Redfield

The author of one of the most successful self-published books of all time, The Celestine Prophecy (Warner 1993), James Redfield discusses the personal experiences that made it possible.  He says that we need to open ourselves to the mysterious coincidences that we would see happening in our lives all the time, if we would only take notice.  "We live in a responsive universe, where our very thoughts go out and have an impact not only on other people but also in terms of what can happen with us.  If we limit our potential with our thoughts, then there is a corresponding limit to the number of opportunities that come our way."

The Aye-Aye and I

Gerald Durrell

Gerald Durrell’s last book, The Aye-Aye and I records his final animal-collecting expedition, a trip to Madagascar in 1990, and his efforts to save the elusive and mythical lemuroid known as the Aye-Aye. Prompted by the country’s radical deforestation, and slash-and-burn agriculture, Durrell, his wife, and their team of zoologists embark on a mission to capture and conserve the species—distinguished by its ‘giant, chisel-like teeth’, ‘round, hypnotic eyes’ and large ‘spoon-like ears’. During the course of their journey, they encounter golden river snakes, flat-tailed tortoises, the gentle lemurs of Lac Alaotra, and the Malagasy chameleons. Durrell’s exuberant descriptions of the island, its people and ecology are among his best.
