This textbook aims at introducing readers, primarily students enrolled in undergraduate Mathematics or Physics courses, to the topics and methods of classical Mathematical Physics, including Classical Mechanics, its Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations, Lyapunov stability, plus the Liouville theorem and the Poincaré recurrence theorem among others. The material also rigorously covers the theory of Special Relativity. The logical-mathematical structure of the physical theories of concern is introduced in an axiomatic way, starting from a limited number of physical assumptions. Special attention is paid to themes with a major impact on Theoretical and Mathematical Physics beyond Analytical Mechanics, such as the Galilean symmetry of classical Dynamics and the Poincaré symmetry of relativistic Dynamics, the far-fetching relationship between symmetries and constants of motion, the coordinate-free nature of the underpinning mathematical objects, or the possibility of describing Dynamics in a global way while still working in local coordinates. Based on the author's established teaching experience, the text was conceived to be flexible and thus adapt to different curricula and to the needs of a wide range of students and instructors.

Über den Autor Valter Moretti

Valter Moretti è professore ordinario di Fisica Matematica presso il Dipartimento di Matematica dell'Università di Trento (Laurea in Fisica a Genova e dottorato di ricerca in Fisica Teorica a Trento). La sua attività di ricerca riguarda principalmente i metodi matematici per la fisica (analisi funzionale e geometria differenziale), gli aspetti matematici delle teorie quantistiche e quantistiche-relativistiche, includendo la teoria algebrica dei campi quantistici e la teoria dei buchi neri. Più recentemente, anche in collaborazione con laboratori sperimentali e progetti nazionali ed europei, ha cominciato ad occuparsi di aspetti fondazionali delle teorie quantistiche, quali la disuguaglianza di Bell, l'entanglement quantistico, la contestualità. Negli anni ha dato diversi contributi scientifici pubblicati in riviste internazionali di alto livello in più di ottanta articoli di ricerca e diversi libri. Insegna Meccanica Analitica ed Introduzione alla Teoria delle Equazioni Differenziali a Derivate Parziali nei Corsi di Laurea Triennali in Matematica e in Fisica e tiene corsi avanzati sugli argomenti quantistici e quantistici-relativistici sopra descritti nei Corsi Magistrali di Matematica e Fisica e nel Dottorato di Ricerca in Matematica presso l'università di Trento. È coordinatore del Dottorato in Matematica a Trento ed è coordinatore di un'unità di ricerca interdisciplinare su argomenti fondazionali delle teorie quantistiche presso il Trento Institute for Fundamental Physics and Applications, ha partecipato a diversi comitati scientifici internazionali di valutazione e selezione.
