Kac, Victor

 
9780387953410: Quantum Calculus (Universitext)

Synopsis

Simply put, quantum calculus is ordinary calculus without taking limits. This undergraduate text develops two types of quantum calculi, the q-calculus and the h-calculus. As this book develops quantum calculus along the lines of traditional calculus, the reader discovers, with a remarkable inevitability, many important notions and results of classical mathematics. This book is written at the level of a first course in calculus and linear algebra and is aimed at undergraduate and beginning graduate students in mathematics, computer science, and physics. It is based on lectures and seminars given by Professor Kac over the last few years at MIT. FROM THE REVIEWS: MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS "The authors have written a very accessible book. They have deviated from the classical approach and notation in a way that should prove quite successful"
