Fractional Calculus: An Introduction For Physicists (2nd Edition) An Introduction for Physicists By: Richard Herrmann Publisher: WSPC Print ISBN: 9789814551076, 9814551074 eText ISBN: 9789814551090, 9814551090 Edition: 2nd Pages: 500 Format: EPUB Available from $ 50.00 USD SKU: 9789814551090 The book presents a concise introduction to the basic methods and strategies in fractional calculus and enables the reader to catch up with the state of the art in this field as well as to participate and contribute in the development of this exciting research area. The contents are devoted to the application of fractional calculus to physical problems. The fractional concept is applied to subjects in classical mechanics, group theory, quantum mechanics, nuclear physics, hadron spectroscopy and quantum field theory and it will surprise the reader with new intriguing insights. This new, extended edition now also covers additional chapters about image processing, folded potentials in cluster physics, infrared spectroscopy and local aspects of fractional calculus. A new feature is exercises with elaborated solutions, which significantly supports a deeper understanding of general aspects of the theory. As a result, this book should also be useful as a supporting medium for teachers and courses devoted to this subject.Contents: Introduction Functions The Fractional Derivative Friction Forces Fractional Calculus The Fractional Harmonic Oscillator Wave Equations and Parity Nonlocality and Memory Effects Fractional Calculus in Multidimensional Space — 2D-Image Processing Fractional Calculus in Multidimensional Space — 3D-Folded Potentials in Cluster Physics Quantum Mechanics The Fractional Schrödinger Equation with the Infinite Well Potential — Numerical Results using the Riesz Derivative Uniqueness of a Fractional Derivative — the Riesz and Regularized Liouville Derivative as Examples Fractional Spin — A Property of Particles Described with the Fractional Schrödinger Equation Factorization Symmetries Students and researchers in physics.
