The Geometry of Physics: An Introduction Theodore Frankel
Publisher: Cambridge University Press

A short introduction into the covariant formulation of electrodynamics is also given. I am looking to learn/study up on differential geometry (including n-forms, tensors, etc) and perhaps group theory so as to better understand the mathematics behind some of the physics that I'm interested in (General Relativity, and the foundations of Quantum Mechanics with extensions perhaps into QFT). Keywords » Lorentz transformations - covariant electrodynamics - geometry of Einstein-Minkowsky spacetime - paradoxes in relativistic physics - relativistic mechanics and particles - relativity textbook - special theory of relativity. This publication addresses, in particular, students of physics and mathematics in their final undergraduate year. Recently I reviewed some knowledge about topology in the book The Geometry of Physics-An Introduction by Theodore Frankel, contemplating a lot and having some understandings or speculations. This self-contained monograph provides an introduction to current research in geometry and mathematical physics and is intended for graduate students and researchers just entering this field. I'm looking for 2 For differential geometry, the book "Introduction to smooth manifolds" by Lee is good, but it presupposes (a little bit) of topology. A general introduction is in section 1.1d of.
