Integral, Measure and Derivative: A Unified Approach by Shilov

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the book "Integral, Measure and Derivative: A Unified Approach" by Shilov, with inquiries about its suitability for self-study in measure theory. The user seeks a text that matches the clarity and accessibility of Kreyszig's "Functional Analysis," which they find exceptionally clear. Additionally, the user mentions purchasing Cohn's text on Measure Theory, noting it seems adequate for future study but has not yet fully engaged with it. The user has previously read other works by Cohn and appreciates the quality of his writing. Overall, the focus is on finding a clear and effective resource for understanding measure theory.

Greetings!

Can anyone tell me a little bit about the book Integral, Measure and Derivative: A Unified Approach by Shilov? Is it suitable for self-study? I am wishing to study the basics of measure theory. I will be using the text alongside Kreyszig's Funcational Analysis. Having already started the Kreyszig text, I can comment that it is crystal clear! As such, I am looking for a text at a similar level of difficulty (or written at the same level of clarity). Thank you for the input.

P.S. I also purchased Cohn's text on Measure Theory. I have skimmed it; it seems "alright." I would maybe like to use that text as a follow up.

Frankly, I haven't. However, I have read several of his other works (Elementary Real and Complex Analysis, Linear Algebra, Elementary Functional Analysis), and so I can attest to the superb quality of his writting.
 

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...
