Books by V. Balakrishnan

This book deals with the basic principles and techniques of nonequilibrium statistical mechanics. The importance of this subject is growing rapidly in view of the advances being made, both experimentally and theoretically, in statistical physics, chemical physics, biological physics, complex systems and several other areas.

Combinatorial and graph-theoretic principles are used in many areas of pure and applied mathematics and also in such fields as electric circuit theory (graph theory, in fact, grew out of Kirchoff's Laws) and quantum physics. This book addresses some of the major (programmable) algorithms of graph theory and the Polya Counting Theorem.
