Collection Of Papers On Geometry, Analysis And Mathematical Physics
This volume is published in honor of Professor Gu Chaohao, a renowned mathematician and member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, on the occasion of his 70th birthday and his 50th year of educational work. The subjects covered by this collection are closely related to differential geometry, partial differential equations and mathematical physics — the major areas in which Professor Gu has received notable achievements. Many distinguished mathematicians all over the world contributed their papers to this collection. This collection also consists of “Gu Chaohao and I” written by C N Yang, “The academic career and accomplishment of Professor Gu Chaohao” by T T Li and “List of publications of Professor Gu Chaohao”.
Differential Geometry and Differential Equations
The DD6 Symposium was, like its predecessors DD1 to DD5 both a research symposium and a summer seminar and concentrated on differential geometry. This volume contains a selection of the invited papers and some additional contributions. They cover recent advances and principal trends in current research in differential geometry.
Mathematical Essays
This is a collection of research papers published in various mathematical journals by friends, colleagues and former students of Professor Buchin Su in honor ofhis 80th birthday and 50th year of educational work.Professor Su was born in 1902 in Pingyang County, Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China. He received the degree of Bachelor of Science inmathematics from Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan in 1927, and the degree ofDoctor of Science from the same university in 1931. After returning to Chinain 1931, he first taught at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou until 1952 when thewhole College of Science of Zhejiang University was merged into Fudan Universityin Shanghai. During his 50 years of educational work besides teaching, he alsohas taken up various administrative positions serving as Chairman, Dean, VicePresident and finally the President of Fudan University in 1978
Hyperbolic Problems: Theory, Numerics And Applications (In 2 Volumes)
This two-volume book is devoted to mathematical theory, numerics and applications of hyperbolic problems. Hyperbolic problems have not only a long history but also extremely rich physical background. The development is highly stimulated by their applications to Physics, Biology, and Engineering Sciences; in particular, by the design of effective numerical algorithms. Due to recent rapid development of computers, more and more scientists use hyperbolic partial differential equations and related evolutionary equations as basic tools when proposing new mathematical models of various phenomena and related numerical algorithms.This book contains 80 original research and review papers which are written by leading researchers and promising young scientists, which cover a diverse range of multi-disciplinary topics addressing theoretical, modeling and computational issues arising under the umbrella of ';Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations';. It is aimed at mathematicians, researchers in applied sciences and graduate students.
On Einstein’s Path
This collection of nearly forty essays in honor of the noted physicist and cosmologist Engelbert Schucking spans the gamut of research in Einsteins theory of general relativity and presents a lively and personal account of current work in the field. Indispensable for physicists involved in research in the field, the book includes important chapters by noted theorists such as A. Ashtekar, P.G. Bergmann, J. Ehlers, E.T. Newman, J.V. Narlikar, R. Penrose, D.W. Sciama, J. Stachel, and W. Rindler.
Hamilton’s Ricci Flow
Ricci flow is a powerful analytic method for studying the geometry and topology of manifolds. This book is an introduction to Ricci flow for graduate students and mathematicians interested in working in the subject. To this end, the first chapter is a review of the relevant basics of Riemannian geometry. For the benefit of the student, the text includes a number of exercises of varying difficulty. The book also provides brief introductions to some general methods of geometric analysis and other geometric flows. Comparisons are made between the Ricci flow and the linear heat equation, mean curvature flow, and other geometric evolution equations whenever possible. Several topics of Hamilton's program are covered, such as short time existence, Harnack inequalities, Ricci solitons, Perelman's no local collapsing theorem, singularity analysis, and ancient solutions. A major direction in Ricci flow, via Hamilton's and Perelman's works, is the use of Ricci flow as an approach to solving the Poincaré conjecture and Thurston's geometrization conjecture.
Isometric Embedding of Riemannian Manifolds in Euclidean Spaces
The question of the existence of isometric embeddings of Riemannian manifolds in Euclidean space is already more than a century old. This book presents, in a systematic way, results both local and global and in arbitrary dimension but with a focus on the isometric embedding of surfaces in ${\mathbb R}^3$. The emphasis is on those PDE techniques which are essential to the most important results of the last century. The classic results in this book include the Janet-Cartan Theorem, Nirenberg's solution of the Weyl problem, and Nash's Embedding Theorem, with a simplified proof by Gunther. The book also includes the main results from the past twenty years, both local and global, on the isometric...
Riemannian Geometry and Geometric Analysis
This established reference work continues to lead its readers to some of the hottest topics of contemporary mathematical research. The previous edition already introduced and explained the ideas of the parabolic methods that had found a spectacular success in the work of Perelman at the examples of closed geodesics and harmonic forms. It also discussed further examples of geometric variational problems from quantum field theory, another source of profound new ideas and methods in geometry. The 6th edition includes a systematic treatment of eigenvalues of Riemannian manifolds and several other additions. Also, the entire material has been reorganized in order to improve the coherence of the b...
Proceedings of the ICM 2002 Satellite Conference
This book contains the papers presented at the ICM2002 Satellite Conference on Nonlinear Evolution Equations and Dynamical Systems. About 50 mathematicians and scientists attended the meeting ? including E Witten (IAS), C Nappi (Princeton), K Khanin (Cambridge), D Phong (Columbia), d'Hoker (UCLA) and Peng Chiakuei (CAS). The book covers several fields, such as nonlinear evolution equations and integrable systems, infinite-dimensional algebra, conformal field theory and geometry.The proceedings have been selected for coverage in: ?

The Two-Dimensional Riemann Problem in Gas Dynamics
The Riemann problem is the most fundamental problem in the entire field of non-linear hyperbolic conservation laws. Since first posed and solved in 1860, great progress has been achieved in the one-dimensional case. However, the two-dimensional case is substantially different. Although research interest in it has lasted more than a century, it has yielded almost no analytical demonstration. It remains a great challenge for mathematicians. This volume presents work on the two-dimensional Riemann problem carried out over the last 20 years by a Chinese group. The authors explore four models: scalar conservation laws, compressible Euler equations, zero-pressure gas dynamics, and pressure-gradien...
