Real Analysis: An Undergraduate Problem Book for Mathematicians, Applied Scientists, and Engineers is a classical Real Analysis/Calculus problem book. This topic has been a compulsory subject for every undergraduate studying mathematics or engineering for a very long time. This volume contains a huge number of engaging problems and solutions, as well as detailed explanations of how to achieve these solutions. This latter quality is something that many problem books lack, and it is hoped that this feature will be useful to students and instructors alike. Features Hundreds of problems and solutions Can be used as a stand-alone problem book, or in conjunction with the author’s textbook, Real Analysis: An Undergraduate Textbook for Mathematicians, Applied Scientists, and Engineers, ISBN 9781032481487 Perfect resource for undergraduate students studying a first course in Calculus or Real Analysis Contains explanatory figures, detailed techniques, tricks, hints, and “recipes” on how to proceed once we have a calculus problem in front of us.
This brief presents a global perspective on the geometry of spaces of polynomials. Its particular focus is on polynomial spaces of dimension 3, providing, in that case, a graphical representation of the unit ball. Also, the extreme points in the unit ball of several polynomial spaces are characterized. Finally, a number of applications to obtain sharp classical polynomial inequalities are presented. The study performed is the first ever complete account on the geometry of the unit ball of polynomial spaces. Nowadays there are hundreds of research papers on this topic and our work gathers the state of the art of the main and/or relevant results up to now. This book is intended for a broad audience, including undergraduate and graduate students, junior and senior researchers and it also serves as a source book for consultation. In addition to that, we made this work visually attractive by including in it over 50 original figures in order to help in the understanding of all the results and techniques included in the book.
This book provides a comprehensive presentation of recent approaches to and results about properties of various classes of functional spaces, such as Banach spaces, uniformly convex spaces, function spaces, and Banach algebras. Each of the 12 articles in this book gives a broad overview of current subjects and presents open problems. Each article includes an extensive bibliography. This book is dedicated to Professor Per. H. Enflo, who made significant contributions to functional analysis and operator theory.
Las (mal llamadas) clases de problemas constituyen una herramienta fundamental en cualquier disciplina científica. Tradicionalmente, estas clases cumplen el objetivo de complementar aspectos más o menos difíciles de la disciplina en cuestión. Sin embargo, deberían entenderse más como un entrenamiento que capacite al estudiante para resolver cualquier problema (en sentido amplio) que se le pueda plantear en su vida profesional. Con este espíritu se concibe esta colección de “Problemas resueltos” que Ediciones Paraninfo pone a disposición de profesores y estudiantes de una gran variedad de disciplinas académicas. El presente libro no es una mera guía para aprender a resolver ecu...
While film studies has traditionally treated the presence of the city in film as an urban text operating inside of a cinematic one, this approach has recently evolved into the study of cinema as a technology of place. From this perspective, Documenting Cityscapes explores the way the city has been depicted by nonfiction filmmakers since the late 1970s, paying particular attention to three aesthetic tendencies: documentary landscaping, urban self-portraits, and metafilmic strategies. Through the formal analysis of fifteen works from six different countries, this volume investigates how the rise of subjectivity has helped to develop a kind of gaze that is closer to citizens than to the institutions and corporations responsible for recent major transformations. Documenting Cityscapes therefore reveals the extent to which cinema has become an agent of urban change, in which certain films not only challenge the most controversial policies of late capitalism but also are able to produce spatiality themselves.
Recovering the U.S. Hispanic Literary Project is a national project to locate, identify, preserve and make accessible the literary contributions of U.S. Hispanics from colonial times through 1960 in what today comprises the fifty states of the United States.
Contains scholarly evaluations of books and book chapters as well as conference papers and articles published worldwide in the field of Latin American studies. Covers social sciences and the humanities in alternate years.
Translated by Jeremy Moyle In Nature in the New World (translated into English in 1985), Antonello Gerbi examines the fascinating reports of the first Europeans to see the Americas. These accounts provided the basis for the images of strange and new flora, fauna, and human creatures that filled European imaginations.Initial chapters are devoted to the writings of Columbus, Vespucci, Cortes, Verrazzano, and others. The second portion of the book concerns the Historia general y natural de las Indias of Gonzalo Fernandez de Oviedo, a work commissioned by Charles V of Spain in 1532 but not published in its entirety until the 1850s. Antonello Gerbi contends that Oviedo, a Spanish administrator who lived in Santo Domingo, has been unjustly neglected as a historian. Gerbi shows that Oviedo was a major authority on the culture, history, and conquest of the New World.
