How does a quantum computer work and how can photons be used to transmit messages securely? Intended for engineering and computer science students, this introduction to quantum technologies presents …

In a self contained and exhaustive work the author covers Group Theory in its multifaceted aspects, treating its conceptual foundations in a proper logical order. First discrete and finite group theo …

The new book by Franck Laloe introduces a symmetry-based approach to understand quantum mechanics at a fundamental level and provides the associated computational techniques to master advanced course …

The revised edition gives a comprehensive mathematical and physical presentation of fluid flows in non-classical models of convection – relevant in nature as well as in industry. After the concise co …

This updated revision gives a complete and topical overview on Nonconservative Stability which is essential for many areas of science and technology ranging from particles trapping in optical tweezer …

“This book contains overviews on technologically important classes of glasses, their treatment to achieve desired properties, theoretical approaches for the description of structure-property relation …

Just as the circle number π or the Euler constant e determines mathematics, fundamental constants of nature define the scales of the natural sciences. This book presents a new perspective by means of …

The revealing of the phenomenon of superhydrophobicity (the ‘lotus-effect’) has stimulated an interest in wetting of real (rough and chemically heterogeneous) surfaces. In spite of the fact that wett …

Written by one of the founding fathers of Quantum Information, this book gives an accessible (albeit mathematically rigorous), self-contained introduction to quantum information theory. The central r …

Based on the successful multi-edition book ‘The Physics of Vibrations and Waves’ by John Pain, the authors carry over the simplicity and logic of the approach taken in the original first edition with …
