Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

This book is a self-contained introduction to fiber spaces and differential operators on smooth manifolds that is accessible to graduate students specializing in mathematics and physics. The authors offer an algebraic approach which is based on the fundamential notion of "observable" used by physicists, and which will further the understanding of the mathematics underlying quantum field theory. The prerequisites for this book are a standard advanced calculus course as well as courses in linear algebra and algebraic structures.
