Algebraic Geometry
This volume contains the proceedings of the Korea-Japan Conference on Algebraic Geometry in honor of Igor Dolgachev on his sixtieth birthday. The articles in this volume explore a wide variety of problems that illustrate interactions between algebraic geometry and other branches of mathematics. Among the topics covered by this volume are algebraic curve theory, algebraic surface theory, moduli space, automorphic forms, Mordell-Weil lattices, and automorphisms of hyperkahler manifolds. This book is an excellent and rich reference source for researchers.
Complex Dynamics
Chaotic behavior of (even the simplest) iterations of polynomial maps of the complex plane was known for almost one hundred years due to the pioneering work of Farou, Julia, and their contemporaries. However, it was only twenty-five years ago that the first computer generated images illustrating properties of iterations of quadratic maps appeared. These images of the so-called Mandelbrot and Julia sets immediately resulted in a strong resurgence of interest in complex dynamics. The present volume, based on the talks at the conference commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the appearance of Mandelbrot sets, provides a panorama of current research in this truly fascinating area of mathematics.
Geometric and Topological Methods for Quantum Field Theory
This volume, based on lectures and short communications at a summer school in Villa de Leyva, Colombia (July 2005), offers an introduction to some recent developments in several active topics at the interface between geometry, topology and quantum field theory. It is aimed at graduate students in physics or mathematics who might want insight in the following topics (covered in five survey lectures): Anomalies and noncommutative geometry, Deformation quantisation and Poisson algebras, Topological quantum field theory and orbifolds. These lectures are followed by nine articles on various topics at the borderline of mathematics and physics ranging from quasicrystals to invariant instantons through black holes, and involving a number of mathematical tools borrowed from geometry, algebra and analysis.
Number Theory
In 34 refereed papers from the conference at Dalhousie University in July 1994, research mathematicians discuss analytic, algebraic, and computational number theory. Among the specific topics are the number of genera of positive-definite integral ternary quadratic forms, five formulas of Ramanujan arising from Eisenstein series, the average value of class numbers in cyclic extensions of the rational function field, and some refinements of an algorithm of Brillhart.

Harmonic Analysis
Starting in the early 1950's, Alberto Calderon, Antoni Zygmund, and their students developed a program in harmonic analysis with far-reaching consequences. The title of these proceedings reflects this broad reach. This book came out of a DePaul University conference honoring Stephen Vagi upon his retirement in 2002. Vagi was a student of Calderon in the 1960's, when Calderon and Zygmund were at their peak. Two authors, Kenig and Gatto, were students of Calderon; one, Muckenhoupt, was a student of Zygmund. Two others studied under Zygmund's student Elias Stein. The remaining authors all have close connections with the Calderon-Zygmund school of analysis. This book should interest specialists ...
Representations, Wavelets, and Frames
The work of Lawrence Baggett has had a profound impact on the field of abstract harmonic analysis and the many areas of mathematics that use its techniques. His sphere of influence ranges from purely theoretical results regarding the representations of locally compact groups to recent applications of wavelets and frames to problems in sampling theory and image compression. Contributions in this volume reflect this broad scope, and Baggett’s unusual ability to bring together techniques from disparate fields. Recent applications to problems in sampling theory and image compression are included.
Identification and Control: Some New Challenges
This volume contains the proceedings of the Summer School on Identification and Control: some challenges, held from June 18–20, 2019, in Monastir, Tunisia. The articles cover new developments in control theory and inverse problems. First, the problem of Calderón, which consists of determining a conductivity appearing in an elliptic equation from excitation and measurements on a part of the boundary of the domain, is studied. Second, an introduction to the mathematical analysis of inverse spectral problems of Borg-Levinson type is presented. Third, the control of multi-component systems of wave equations, focusing on the notion of simultaneous control (using the same control scheme in all components of the system at hand) and indirect control (using a single control for a system consisting of two components), is presented. Last, the study of the cost of control for parabolic systems, the finite time stabilization of hyperbolic control systems by boundary feedback laws, and image reconstruction by data assimilation are addressed.
Motivic Homotopy Theory and Refined Enumerative Geometry
This volume contains the proceedings of the Workshop on Motivic Homotopy Theory and Refined Enumerative Geometry, held from May 14–18, 2018, at the Universität Duisburg-Essen, Essen, Germany. It constitutes an accessible yet swift introduction to a new and active area within algebraic geometry, which connects well with classical intersection theory. Combining both lecture notes aimed at the graduate student level and research articles pointing towards the manifold promising applications of this refined approach, it broadly covers refined enumerative algebraic geometry.
Dynamical Systems and Random Processes
This volume contains the proceedings of the 16th Carolina Dynamics Symposium, held from April 13–15, 2018, at Agnes Scott College, Decatur, Georgia. The papers cover various topics in dynamics and randomness, including complex dynamics, ergodic theory, topological dynamics, celestial mechanics, symbolic dynamics, computational topology, random processes, and regular languages. The intent is to provide a glimpse of the richness of the field and of the common threads that tie the different specialties together.
Operator Theory, Operator Algebras, and Applications
This book offers a presentation of some new trends in operator theory and operator algebras, with a view to their applications. It consists of separate papers written by some of the leading practitioners in the field. The content is put together by the three editors in a way that should help students and working mathematicians in other parts of the mathematical sciences gain insight into an important part of modern mathematics and its applications. While different specialist authors are outlining new results in this book, the presentations have been made user friendly with the aid of tutorial material. In fact, each paper contains three things: a friendly introduction with motivation, tutorial material, and new research. The authors have strived to make their results relevant to the rest of mathematics. A list of topics discussed in the book includes wavelets, frames and their applications, quantum dynamics, multivariable operator theory, $C*$-algebras, and von Neumann algebras. Some longer papers present recent advances on particular, long-standing problems such as extensions and dilations, the Kadison-Singer conjecture, and diagonals of self-adjoint operators.
