Introduction to Mathematical Physics
by Alex Madon
Publisher: Wikibooks 2010
Description:
The goal of this book is to propose an ensemble view of modern physics. The coherence between various fields of physics is insured by following two axes: a first axis is provided by the universal mathematical language; the second axis followed along this book is the study of the N body problem.

Invariance Theory, the Heat Equation and the Atiyah-Singer Index Theoremby Peter B. Gilkey - Publish or Perish Inc.
This book treats the Atiyah-Singer index theorem using the heat equation, which gives a local formula for the index of any elliptic complex. Heat equation methods are also used to discuss Lefschetz fixed point formulas and the Gauss-Bonnet theorem.

Physics, Topology, Logic and Computation: A Rosetta Stoneby John C. Baez, Mike Stay - arXiv
There is extensive network of analogies between physics, topology, logic and computation. In this paper we make these analogies precise using the concept of 'closed symmetric monoidal category'. We assume no prior knowledge of category theory.

Feynman Diagrams and Differential Equationsby Mario Argeri, Pierpaolo Mastrolia - arXiv
The authors review the method of differential equations for the evaluation of D-dimensionally regulated Feynman integrals. After dealing with the technique, we discuss its application in the context of corrections to the photon propagator in QED.
