AI Thread Summary
For those seeking a comprehensive understanding of the star operator in physics, Burke's "Applied Differential Geometry" is recommended for its geometric definition and applications. The star operator is notably utilized throughout electromagnetism and is also featured in Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler's "Gravitation," where it aids in deriving Maxwell's equations. Additional resources include various academic PDFs that explore its applications in different contexts.

Who knows a goodbook of physics with a good approach on the star operator? I want to practice with it.

Thank you in advance.

TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...
TLDR: is Blennow "Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering" a good follow-up to Altland "Mathematics for physicists"? Hello everybody, returning to physics after 30-something years, I felt the need to brush up my maths first. It took me 6 months and I'm currently more than half way through the Altland "Mathematics for physicists" book, covering the math for undergraduate studies at the right level of sophystication, most of which I howewer already knew (being an aerospace engineer)...
