Book Reference Series

AI Thread Summary

The discussion centers on finding an accessible elementary book focused on hypergeometric series, requiring only knowledge of calculus, differential equations, and elementary number theory. The requester emphasizes the importance of having good exercises at the end of each chapter. Despite the initial inquiry, there is a lack of responses or suggestions, leading to a feeling of isolation regarding interest in hypergeometric series. The conversation highlights a potential gap in available resources for learners seeking to explore this mathematical topic.

I'm looking for an elementary book that has no prerequisites other than calculus, differential equations and elementary number theory about hypergeometric series. If it has good exercises in the end of each chapter, that would be great. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

No one knows? Really?
Am I the only person out there that is interested in hyper geometric series?

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
