The Lefschetz Centennial Conference
This volume contains many of the papers in the area of differential equations presented at the 1984 Solomon Lefschetz Centennial Conference held in Mexico City.
Index Theory of Elliptic Operators, Foliations, and Operator Algebras
Combining analysis, geometry, and topology, this volume provides an introduction to current ideas involving the application of $K$-theory of operator algebras to index theory and geometry. In particular, the articles follow two main themes: the use of operator algebras to reflect properties of geometric objects and the application of index theory in settings where the relevant elliptic operators are invertible modulo a $C^*$-algebra other than that of the compact operators. The papers in this collection are the proceedings of the special sessions held at two AMS meetings: the Annual meeting in New Orleans in January 1986, and the Central Section meeting in April 1986. Jonathan Rosenberg's exposition supplies the best available introduction to Kasparov's $KK$-theory and its applications to representation theory and geometry. A striking application of these ideas is found in Thierry Fack's paper, which provides a complete and detailed proof of the Novikov Conjecture for fundamental groups of manifolds of non-positive curvature. Some of the papers involve Connes' foliation algebra and its $K$-theory, while others examine $C^*$-algebras associated to groups and group actions on spaces.
Methods and Applications of Mathematical Logic
Constitutes the proceedings of the Seventh Latin American Symposium on Mathematical Logic, held July 29-August 2, 1985, at the University of Campinas in Brazil. This book offers an introduction to the active lines of research in mathematical logic and emphasizes the connections to other fields - philosophy, computer science and probability theory.
International Symposium in Memory of Hua Loo Keng
The international symposium on number theory and analysis in memory of the late famous Chinese mathematician Professor Hua Loo Keng took place in August 1988 at the Tsinghua University in Beijing. Excellent survey lectures and expositions of the most recent results in number theory and analysis were given by experts from all over the world. While Volume I focuses on number theory, Volume II deals mainly with several complex variables, differential geometry and classical complex analysis. Both volumes also include two fascinating accounts of Professor Hua Loo Keng's life and work by Professor S. Iyanaga and Professor Wang Yuan. Highlights in Volume I: D.A. Hejhal: Eigenvalues of the Laplacian...
Spectral Theory of Infinite-Area Hyperbolic Surfaces
This book is a self-contained monograph on spectral theory for non-compact Riemann surfaces, focused on the infinite-volume case. By focusing on the scattering theory of hyperbolic surfaces, this work provides a compelling introductory example which will be accessible to a broad audience. The book opens with an introduction to the geometry of hyperbolic surfaces. Then a thorough development of the spectral theory of a geometrically finite hyperbolic surface of infinite volume is given. The final sections include recent developments for which no thorough account exists.

Harmonic Analysis and Partial Differential Equations
Illuminates the relationship between harmonic analysis and partial differential equations. This book covers topics such as application of fully nonlinear, uniformly elliptic equations to the Monge Ampere equation; and estimates for Green functions for the purpose of studying Dirichlet problems for operators in non-divergence form.
Automorphic Forms and Applications
The theory of automorphic forms has seen dramatic developments in recent years. In particular, important instances of Langlands functoriality have been established. This volume presents three weeks of lectures from the IAS/Park City Mathematics Institute Summer School on automorphic forms and their applications. It addresses some of the general aspects of automorphic forms, as well as certain recent advances in the field. The book starts with the lectures of Borel on the basic theory of automorphic forms, which lay the foundation for the lectures by Cogdell and Shahidi on converse theorems and the Langlands-Shahidi method, as well as those by Clozel and Li on the Ramanujan conjectures and gr...
