    Laplace Transform solution help

    Nevermind partial fractions won't help here. You need to have proven a theorem about the laplace transform of the step function times another function.

    Laplace Transform solution help

    partial fractions Also, the exponentials should be powers of s not t.

    Schools Recommend a college for undergrad math or engineering

    Good luck with that one.

    Math for Cryptography/Cryptanalysis

    The discrete math class would be a good start. The RSA encryption algorithm is taught in a lot of sophmore level discrete math classes. You could possibly find this book and your library and do some reading on your own: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0387779930/?tag=pfamazon01-20

    Become a Quantum Theoretical Physicist with Mathematical Sciences

    I'm a little (actually more than a little) bothered by the fact that the "analysis" class uses Stewart's Calculus as a textbook.

    What Are the Best E-Books for Engineering and Physics This Summer?

    You need all of them plus the contents of several graduate level math classes to even hope to study string theory.

    Anyone recommend a good book on inequalities?

    The Cauchy Shwarz Master Class book is excellent.

    Re-doing mathematics from the ground up - a rather odd request

    Serge Lang - Basic Mathematics for anything high school related. After that, get books on linear algebra and analysis. Shilov has books on both subjects that are pretty excellent and pretty cheap dover reprints.

    Schools Is university physics much different from upper level mathematics?

    A quick google search of his email address reveals he probably actually attends Douglas College... http://z3.invisionfree.com/DSU_Book_Swap/index.php?showtopic=4486

    Books on Classical/analytical Mechanics

    I like Arnold's "Mathematical Methods in Classical Mechanics," but I've never read Goldstein and I've only glanced at Landau. I'm not a physics major either, but a math major.

    Summer REU/Internships & Algebraic Topology/Category Theory Questions

    I took a research class in Algebraic Topology last semester. Most of the background material I spent a lot of time reading was ring and module theory. I'm continuing with this in the fall and this summer I'm going some stuff in basic Algebraic Geometry. Basically to reinforce ring theory and...

    Another mathamatician neede to check this CURL-GRAD-DIV

    This question doesn't make any sense. Using the vector laplacian is trivial since it's defined by using the other two terms in your equations.

    A good computer for theoretical physics

    It's not just about the actual computation, but the difference between a laptop with a 7200 and 5400 drive for general use is quite significant. The difference from just boot times up is very significant. In general, it just makes windows more responsive and programs open faster. I'm not...
