More about the book

Focusing on the science of tensors, this book offers a comprehensive introduction to tensor algebra and analysis, tailored for undergraduate physics. It covers various tensor types, particularly second rank tensors and their symmetries, alongside applications in mechanics, quantum mechanics, and electrodynamics. The advanced second part delves into tensors of any rank, addressing topics like irreducible tensors and constitutive laws for anisotropic media. Notably, it concludes with a reformulation of the 3D Maxwell equations in a four-dimensional context, aligning with special relativity.
