The Ocean, Volume 2
The ocean was the origin of life on earth billions of years ago and it is vital for the future of humanity. It is vast, deep, harsh and somehow “rebellious” to uncover its secrets and hence, there is much that is unexplored and misunderstood. Scientists need to study the ocean to better understand its functioning and properties, as well as how they shape our environment and impact us. For example, do you know what the role of the ocean is on weather and climate? There still remains so much to explore in ocean biodiversity and the diverse resources that can be found (for example, fish stocks, bio-molecules, and also minerals, oil, and gas). How can we make sure that our use of these resou...
Current Trends in Analysis and Its Applications
This book is a collection of papers from the 9th International ISAAC Congress held in 2013 in Kraków, Poland. The papers are devoted to recent results in mathematics, focused on analysis and a wide range of its applications. These include up-to-date findings of the following topics: - Differential Equations: Complex and Functional Analytic Methods - Nonlinear PDE - Qualitative Properties of Evolution Models - Differential and Difference Equations - Toeplitz Operators - Wavelet Theory - Topological and Geometrical Methods of Analysis - Queueing Theory and Performance Evaluation of Computer Networks - Clifford and Quaternion Analysis - Fixed Point Theory - M-Frame Constructions - Spaces of Differentiable Functions of Several Real Variables Generalized Functions - Analytic Methods in Complex Geometry - Topological and Geometrical Methods of Analysis - Integral Transforms and Reproducing Kernels - Didactical Approaches to Mathematical Thinking Their wide applications in biomathematics, mechanics, queueing models, scattering, geomechanics etc. are presented in a concise, but comprehensible way, such that further ramifications and future directions can be immediately seen.
Solvability Theory of Boundary Value Problems and Singular Integral Equations with Shift
The first formulations of linear boundary value problems for analytic functions were due to Riemann (1857). In particular, such problems exhibit as boundary conditions relations among values of the unknown analytic functions which have to be evaluated at different points of the boundary. Singular integral equations with a shift are connected with such boundary value problems in a natural way. Subsequent to Riemann's work, D. Hilbert (1905), C. Haseman (1907) and T. Carleman (1932) also considered problems of this type. About 50 years ago, Soviet mathematicians began a systematic study of these topics. The first works were carried out in Tbilisi by D. Kveselava (1946-1948). Afterwards, this t...
What in the World is Music?
What in the World is Music? Second Edition is an undergraduate, interactive e-textbook that explores the shared ways people engage with music and how humans organize and experience sound. It adopts a global approach, featuring more than 300 streaming videos and 50 streaming audio tracks of music from around the world. Drawing from both musicological and ethnomusicological modes of inquiry, the authors explain the nature and meaning of music as a universal human practice, making no distinction between Western and non-Western repertoires while providing students with strong points of connection to the ways it affects their own lives. The What in the World is Music? curriculum is divided into f...
The Origin Of Our Rituals
THE AUTHOR’S INTERWOVEN DESCRIPTIONS OF HISTORIC DATA PROVIDE A SENSE OF THE IMPORTANT ROLE THAT RITUALS HAVE PLAYED IN THE EVERYDAY LIFE OF CHRISTIANS FOR THE PAST TWO MILLENNIA. THROUGH CONCISE AND CANDID ACCOUNTS ACCOMPANIED WITH A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF THE FAITH, SANDSTAD INVITES US ALL TO BECOME PASSIONATE ABOUT WHAT WE BELIEVE AND PRACTICE IN ORDER TO CHERISH, TRANSMIT AND RADIATE THE BEAUTY OF THE CATHOLIC HERITAGE. “What earlier generations held as sacred, remains sacred and great for us too, and it cannot be all of a sudden entirely forbidden or even considered harmful. It behooves all of us to preserve the riches which have developed in the Church’s faith and prayer, and to give them their proper place.” -Pope Benedict XVI- Vatican City
Specimen Lives
Nine stories about nine different people, each one of whom is lonely, lost or detached. Something is missing in their lives, some emotional connection, some meaning, perhaps that very elusive quality: completeness.
