Green’s Functions and Boundary Value Problems, 2nd Edition 2nd Edition by Ivar Stakgold (PDF)

Description

This revised and updated Second Edition of Green’s Functions and Boundary Value Problems maintains a careful balance between sound mathematics and meaningful applications. Central to the text is a down-to-earth approach that shows the reader how to use differential and integral equations when tackling significant problems in the physical sciences, engineering, and applied mathematics. Ivar Stakgold incorporates developments that have altered the field of applied mathematics in recent decades–particularly in areas of modeling, Fourier analysis, fixed-point theorems, inverse problems, asymptotics, and nonlinear methods. This modernized text, however, retains the many features that made its predecessor one of the most successful graduate-level texts of its kind, including: * A unique blend of topics * A balanced discussion of theory and applications * 44 illustrations and numerous practical examples that supplement the text * Chapter introductions and clear explanations of basic concepts * Plentiful exercises, many of which are new to this edition Green’s Functions and Boundary Value Problems is an ideal text for a modern course in applied mathematics designed for students in the physical sciences, engineering, and mathematics. It is also an excellent reference for practicing professionals in these areas.

⭐Excellent Book and in Excellent condition as new !

⭐Actually, I preferred the first (2 volume) edition of this work and used the first volume along with Whittaker and Watson to teach first semester math methods to physics and engineering students. This book provides the most readable, systematic approach to boundary-value problems, based on Weyl’s lemma. Not to be compared with the usual cookbooks on math methods because it shows you how to construct nonstandard orthogonal expansions, not merely the usual Fourier, Bessel and Legendre variety. Also very good on Dirac’s delta funaction. For second semester, for years I also used Bender and Orszag.G is called ‘the Green function’ and not ‘the Green’s function’ (one does not say ‘the Bessel’s function’).

⭐This is by far the worst textbook I’ve ever been forced to use for a class. The author provides virtually no example problems with clearly demonstrated solutions, repeatedly skips large portions of derivations and proofs, and introduces new concepts in the problem sets for each chapter with little or no explanation. He makes sure to include comments like “clearly, …” after jumping 14 steps in a derivation or proof just so you know he’s so much smarter than you. I’m going to burn it at the end of the semester.
