Series Statement:
Monograph series on nonlinear science and complexity v. 7
Content:
Quantum Mechanics of Non-Hamiltonian and Dissipative Systems is self-contained and can be used by students without a previous course in modern mathematics and physics. The book describes the modern structure of the theory, and covers the fundamental results of last 15 years. The book has been recommended by Russian Ministry of Education as the textbook for graduate students and has been used for graduate student lectures from 1998 to 2006. Requires no preliminary knowledge of graduate and advanced mathematics. Discusses the fundamental results of last 15 years in this theory Suitable for courses for undergraduate students as well as graduate students and specialists in physics mathematics and other sciences
