hi there..
i really wanned to know if there is a possibility of finding online textbooks for refernce at the university level..I am looking for"mathematical methods for physicists by T Chow", and linear algebra by nicholson..Can i find them online so that i don't have to spend more money in buying them.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
well, if you need just to look through, you may use these books from google print for free.
http://print.google.com/
To go to the page you need just enter the page number in the "Search" box after you find the book.

This will allow you to read several pages you need. Then there are other things you have to learn to "hack" google print and to get the whole book from them. I guess, that's not very legal, but you may find everything in the internet. good luck:)
 
ne more solutions to this problem please??
 
You can download a free linear algebra textbook at
http://www.math.miami.edu/~ec/book/
Look on the little bar on the top of this screen and click on "links" to find more stuff like this.
 
thanks for the replies..However is someone knows abt the sources for the 2 books iv mentioned,,itll be more than appreciated!
thanks
 

Thread 'Trouble understanding an online solution to an exercise in Dummit & Foote'

##\textbf{Exercise 10}:## I came across the following solution online: Questions: 1. When the author states in "that ring (not sure if he is referring to ##R## or ##R/\mathfrak{p}##, but I am guessing the later) ##x_n x_{n+1}=0## for all odd $n$ and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible, so that ##x_n=0##" 2. How does ##x_nx_{n+1}=0## implies that ##x_{n+1}## is invertible and ##x_n=0##. I mean if the quotient ring ##R/\mathfrak{p}## is an integral domain, and ##x_{n+1}## is invertible then...

Thread 'Questions about non existence of GCDs vs (coimages, cokernels)'

The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...

Thread 'Decomposition into irreps of compact Lie group'

When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
