Study Resources for my Classical Fields Theory exam

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion centers around seeking study resources for a Classical Field Theory exam, including practice questions, past exams, and textbook recommendations. The topics covered in the class include relativity, Poincaré and Lorentz groups, tensor algebra and calculus, and Lie algebras and groups.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests practice questions and textbook recommendations for Classical Field Theory.
  • Another participant suggests conducting a Google search for practice exams, indicating that there are many resources available online.
  • A later reply indicates that the original poster has already taken the exam and seeks feedback on their performance.
  • There are expressions of confusion and a humorous response in a different language, suggesting a light-hearted tone in the discussion.

Hi, I'm currently taking a class in Classical Field Theory. We've covered topics such as relativity, Poincaré and Lorentz groups, tensor algebra and calculus, as well as Lie algebras and groups.

I would like to review for my exam and was wondering if anyone has practice questions or past exams on these topics? Recommendations for textbooks or resources would also be really helpful!

Thanks !

Welcome to PF.

I did a Google search on Classical Field Theory practice exams and got lots of good hits. Have you tried looking through the results of that search?

No 😅, but I revised, thanks!
I did my exam today, what do you think?
