Mathematics

Preface - Heinrich Hertz's great paper on the "Fundamental Equations of Electrodynamics for Bodies at Rest" has served as model for my lectures on electrodynamics ever since my student days.  Following this example I proceed in Part I from Maxwell's equations as an axiomatic basis, expressed not as with Hertz, in the coordinates and in differential form, but in vectorial integral form.  In Part II the serveral classes of phenomena, in static, stationary, quasi stationary, and rapidly variable fields, are driver from these equations, as in Hertz's paper.

A. Sommerfeld's "Mathematische Theorie der Diffraction" marks a milestone in optical theory, full of insights that are still relevant today. In a stunning tour de force, Sommerfeld derives the first mathematically rigorous solution of an optical diffraction problem. Indeed, his diffraction analysis is a surprisingly rich and complex mix of pure and applied mathematics, and his often-cited diffraction solution is presented only as an application of a much more general set of mathematical results. This complete translation, reflecting substantial scholarship, is the first publication in English of Sommerfeld's original work. The extensive notes by the translators are rich in historical background and provide many technical details for the reader.

The lecture series on the Theory of the Top was originally given as a dedication to Göttingen University by Felix Klein in 1895, but has since found broader appeal. The Theory of the Top: Volume I. Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top is the first of a series of four self-contained English translations that provide insights into kinetic theory and kinematics.
