PHYS20171 MATHEMATICS OF WAVES AND FIELDS

Web Resources

An extremely useful resource is the HELM project which is available from the School of Mathematics. (Follow the HELM link in the menu on the left. You will need to login using your university username and password to access HELM.) It provides a set of workbooks covering a wide range of mathematical topics. The most relevant for this module are Sections 23, 24 and 25. Note that in some areas these workbooks provide more detail than is covered in this module, whereas in others this module goes into greater depth.

Fourier Series

Fourier Transforms and Convolution
