Description
Summary:"This work explores and presents the principles of 'surface potential theory for the sphere, ' in addition to those in the Euclidean space R3, and breaks new mathematical ground in dealing generically with potential theoretic aspects of gravitation and geomagnetism. The work covers a two-semester graduate course in the teaching cycle of geomathematics, but it can as well be used as a reference for researchers and aims at presenting the "state of the art" in three-dimensional Euclidean as well as two-dimensional spherical potential theory for applications in the geosciences"--
