"Quantum Mechanics for Mathematicians" by Leon A. Takhtajan. Description: This book provides a comprehensive treatment of quantum mechanics from a mathematics perspective and is accessible to mathematicians starting with second-year graduate students. In addition to traditional topics, like classical mechanics, mathematical foundations of quantum mechanics, quantization, and the Schrodinger equation, this book gives a mathematical treatment of systems of identical particles with spin, and it introduces the reader to functional methods in quantum mechanics. This includes the Feynman path integral approach to quantum mechanics, integration in functional spaces, the relation between Feynman and Wiener integrals, Gaussian integration and regularized determinants of differential operators, fermion systems and integration over anticommuting (Grassmann) variables, supersymmetry and localization in loop spaces, and supersymmetric derivation of the Atiyah-Singer formula for the index of the Dirac operator. Prior to this book, mathematicians could find these topics only in physics textbooks and in specialized literature. This book is written in a concise style with careful attention to precise mathematics formulation of methods and results. Numerous problems, from routine to advanced, help the reader to master the subject. In addition to providing a fundamental knowledge of quantum mechanics, this book could also serve as a bridge for studying more advanced topics in quantum physics, among them quantum field theory. Prerequisites include standard first-year graduate courses covering linear and abstract algebra, topology and geometry, and real and complex analysis.

"Quantum Field Theory: Batalin-Vilkovisky Formalism and Its Applications" by Pavel Mnev. Description: This book originated from lecture notes for the course given by the author at the University of Notre Dame in the fall of 2016. The aim of the book is to give an introduction to the perturbative path integral for gauge theories (in particular, topological field theories) in Batalin Vilkovisky formalism and to some of its applications. The book is oriented toward a graduate mathematical audience and does not require any prior physics background. To elucidate the picture, the exposition is mostly focused on finite-dimensional models for gauge systems and path integrals, while giving comments on what has to be amended in the infinite-dimensional case relevant to local field theory. Motivating examples discussed in the book include Alexandrov Kontsevich Schwarz Zaboronsky sigma models, the perturbative expansion for Chern Simons invariants of 3-manifolds given in terms of integrals over configurations of points on the manifold, the BF theory on cellular decompositions of manifolds, and Kontsevich's deformation quantization formula.

"Conquering the Physics GRE" by Yoni Kahn and Adam Anderson. Description: "Studying for the GRE can be overwhelming! This book is long because it contains all the information you need to ace the exam, but not every student needs to study every chapter in equal detail. Here are some suggestions for how to use this book. The Physics GRE is a test of outside knowledge, so some memorization is inevitable. However, we have made a concerted effort to separate equations which are only used in special worked examples from equations which are worth remembering for the test. The only equations worth remembering are given equation numbers and are included in the Equation Index at the back of the book along with the page number where they appear; anything else you can safely forget for test day. This is still quite a long list, so rather than memorize each equation, check out Chapter 9 for suggestions on how to reduce your memorization workload by deriving more complex equations from more basic ones.

"Linear Algebra with Applications" by Otto Bretscher. Description: Linear transformations are introduced early in the text to make the discussion of matrix operations more meaningful and easier to navigate. Visualization and geometrical interpretation are emphasized extensively throughout the text. An abundance of problems, exercises, and applications help students assess their understanding and master the material. Abstract concepts are introduced gradually throughout the text. Major ideas are carefully developed at various levels of generality before the student is introduced to abstract vector spaces. Discrete and continuous dynamical systems are used as a motivation for eigenvectors and as a unifying theme thereafter. Fifty to sixty True/False questions conclude every chapter, testing conceptual understanding and encouraging students to read the text. Historical problems from ancient Chinese, Indian, Arabic, and early European sources add diversity to the selection of exercises. Rotations, reflections, projections, and shears are used throughout to illustrate new ideas. Multiple perspectives on the kernel of a matrix are presented, with a stronger emphasis on the relations among the columns. Commutative diagrams enhance students' conceptual understanding of the matrix of a linear transformation. These diagrams enable students to visualize the relations between linear transformations. A more conceptual approach to the QR factorization is presented, in terms of a change-of-basis. Edition 5 published by Pearson, in 2019. Hardcover: no Jacket: no Good condition; 497 pages.

"Topoi: The Categorical Analysis of Logic" by Robert Goldblatt. Description: A classic exposition of a branch of mathematical logic that uses category theory, this text is suitable for advanced undergraduates and graduate students and accessible to both philosophically and mathematically oriented readers. Its approach moves always from the particular to the general, following through the steps of the abstraction process until the abstract concept emerges naturally. Beginning with a survey of set theory and its role in mathematics, the text proceeds to definitions and examples of categories and explains the use of arrows in place of set-membership. The introduction to topos structure covers topos logic, algebra of subobjects, and intuitionism and its logic, advancing to the concept of functors, set concepts and validity, and elementary truth. Explorations of categorial set theory, local truth, and adjointness and quantifiers conclude with a study of logical geometry. Edition 2 published by Dover, in 2006.

"Introduction to Lattices and Order" by B.A. Davey and H.A. Priestly. Description: Ordered structures have been increasingly recognized in recent years due to an explosion of interest in theoretical computer science and all areas of discrete mathematics. This book covers areas such as ordered sets and lattices. A key feature of ordered sets, one which is emphasized in the text, is that they can be represented pictorially. Lattices are also considered as algebraic structures and hence a purely algebraic study is used to reinforce the ideas of homomorphisms and of ideals encountered in group theory and ring theory. Exposure to elementary abstract algebra and the rotation of set theory are the only prerequisites for this text. For the new edition, much has been rewritten or expanded and new exercises have been added. Edition 2 published by Cambridge University Press, in 2002.

"Introduction to Algorithms" by Thomas H. Cormen, Charles E. Leiserson, Ronald L. Rivest. Description: There are books on algorithms that are rigorous but not complete and books that cover masses of material but are not rigorous. Introduction to Algorithms combines the attributes of comprehensiveness and comprehensibility. It will be equally useful as a text, a handbook, and a general reference. "Introduction to Algorithms" covers both classical material and such modern developments as amortized analysis and parallel algorithms. The mathematical exposition, while rigorous, is carefully detailed so that it will be accessible to all levels of readers. Chapters are organized so that they start with elementary material and progress to more advanced topics. Each chapter is relatively self-contained and can be used as a unit of study. Algorithms are presented in a pseudocode that can be easily read by anyone familiar with Fortran, C, or Pascal.
