Physical Applications of Homogeneous Balls

By Yaakov Friedman

This work introduces a unifying mathematical model to describe phenomena in different branches of physics. In particular, the book develops the algebraic structure of bounded symmetric domains, highlighting the symmetry of physical laws and focusing on the interplay between algebraic structures (such as triple products) and the geometry of the domain. The resulting mathematical tools have a number of physical applications. The book's careful development of the topic and its emphasis on mathematics and physics make it useful for graduate students and researchers in both disciplines.
