The seventh edition of Mathematical Methods for Physicists is a substantial and
detailed revision of its predecessor. The changes extend not only to the topics
and their presentation, but also to the exercises that are an important part
of the student experience. The new edition contains 271 exercises that were
not in previous editions, and there has been a wide-spread reorganization of the
previously existing exercises to optimize their placement relative to the material
in the text. Since many instructors who have used previous editions of this text
have favorite problems they wish to continue to use, we are providing detailed
tables showing where the old problems can be found in the new edition, and
conversely, where the problems in the new edition came from. We have included
the full text of every problem from the sixth edition that was not used in the
new seventh edition. Many of these unused exercises are excellent but had to
be left out to keep the book within its size limit. Some may be useful as test
questions or additional study material.
Complete methods of solution have been provided for all the problems that
are new to this seventh edition. This feature is useful to teachers who want to
determine, at a glance, features of the various exercises that may not be com-
pletely apparent from the problem statement. While many of the problems from
the earlier editions had full solutions, some did not, and we were unfortunately
not able to undertake the gargantuan task of generating full solutions to nearly
1400 problems.
Not part of this Instructor’s Manual but available from Elsevier’s on-line
web site are three chapters that were not included in the printed text but which
may be important to some instructors. These include
• A new chapter (designated 31) on Periodic Systems, dealing with mathe-
matical topics associated with lattice summations and band theory,
• A chapter (32) on Mathieu functions, built using material from two chap-
ters in the sixth edition, but expanded into a single coherent presentation,
