Pierre,

A taste of the general principles that are involved
in applying mathematics to physical observations
can be found in the following book, which I had
been planning for some time now to make the
text for one of my endless tutorials:

| Jet Nestruev,
|'Smooth Manifolds and Observables',
| Springer-Verlag, New York, NY, 2003.

But feel free to read ahead.
