| Sumario: | This volume is an introduction to differential methods in physics. Part I contains a comprehensive presentation of the geometry of manifolds and Lie groups, including infinite dimensional settings. The differential geometric notions introduced in Part I are used in Part II to develop selected topics in field theory, from the basic principles up to the present state of the art. This second part is a systematic development of a covariant Hamiltonian formulation of field theory starting from the principle of stationary action. |
