Description
Introduction to Mathematical Physics (also offered as MATH 3P95 ) Topics may include Calculus of variations, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics, field theory, differential forms, vector and polyvector fields, tensor fields, Lie derivative, connection, Riemann metric, Lie groups and algebras, manifolds, and mathematical ideas of quantum mechanics. Applications to theoretical physics. Lectures, 3 hours per week; lab/tutorial, 1 hour per week. Prerequisite(s): MATH 2P03 and 2P08 . Note: MATH 2P12 is recommended. This course may be offered in multiple modes of delivery. The method of delivery will be listed on the academic timetable, in the applicable term. Completion of this course will replace previous assigned grade and credit obtained in PHYS (MATH ) 4P64.
