| Apr 21, 2021 at 23:08 | comment | added | Tom Copeland | Fluid and air streams, heat distribution, electric potential were investigated via complex analysis by Riemann, Klein, and others--Klein, in his book I note in the other MO-Q on RR. Do you know of additional books that present Riemann sufaces in these ways? Does Springer in Intro to Riemann Surfaces do so? I've seen other older books that have done so (and once had such a book that I left in Japan), but I can't recall the authors. | |
