Arithmetical Similarities
Focusing on fruitful exchanges between group theory and number theory, this book examines recent work in the characterization of extensions of number fields in terms of the decomposition of prime ideals. A key problem in this area is establishing the equality of Dedekind zeta functions of different number fields. This problem was solved for abelian extensions by class field theory, but was little studied in its general form until 1970. Recent progress has been based on important results in group theory, particularly the complete classification of all finite simple groups. This book provides an overview of this progress in algebraic number theory; it contains previously unpublished work as well as numerous results appearing in monograph form the first time.
Introduction to Symplectic Topology
This first edition of this book quickly became an established text in this fast-developing branch of mathematics. This second edition has been significantly revised and expanded. It includes a section on new developments and an expanded discussion of Taubes' and Donaldson's recent results.
Triple Systems
Among the simplest combinatorial designs, triple systems have diverse applications in coding theory, cryptography, computer science, and statistics. This book provides a systematic and comprehensive treatment of this rich area of mathematics.
Classical and Modern Methods in Summability
Summability is a mathematical topic with a long tradition and many applications in, for example, function theory, number theory, and stochastics. It was originally based on classical analytical methods, but was strongly influenced by modern functional analytical methods during the last seven decades. The present book aims to introduce the reader to the wide field of summability and its applications, and provides an overview of the most important classical and modern methods used. Part I contains a short general introduction to summability, the basic classical theory concerning mainly inclusion theorems and theorems of the Silverman-Toeplitz type, a presentation of the most important classes ...
The Feynman Integral and Feynman's Operational Calculus
This book provides the most comprehensive mathematical treatment to date of the Feynman path integral and Feynman's operational calculus. It is accessible to mathematicians, mathematical physicists and theoretical physicists. Including new results and much material previously only available in the research literature, this book discusses both the mathematics and physics background that motivate the study of the Feynman path integral and Feynman's operational calculus, and also provides more detailed proofs of the central results.
Asymptotic Analysis of Fields in Multi-structures
This book outlines a powerful new method in analysis which has already been instrumental in solving complicated partial differential equations arising in various areas of engineering. It is suitable for those working with partial differential equations and their applications, and an undergraduate knowledge of PDE's and functional analysis is assumed.
Algebraic and Geometric Surgery
This book is an introduction to surgery theory: the standard classification method for high-dimensional manifolds. It is aimed at graduate students who have already had a basic topology course, and would now like to understand the topology of high-dimensional manifolds. This text contains entry-level accounts of the various prerequisites of both algebra and topology, including basic homotopy and homology, Poincare duality, bundles, cobordism, embeddings, immersions, Whitehead torsion, Poincare complexes, spherical fibrations and quadratic forms and formations. While concentrating on the basic mechanics of surgery, this book includes many worked examples, useful drawings for illustration of the algebra and references for further reading.
Special Functions
The subject of this book is the theory of special functions, not considered as a list of functions exhibiting a certain range of properties, but based on the unified study of singularities of second-order ordinary differential equations in the complex domain. The number and characteristics of the singularities serve as a basis for classification of each individual special function. Links between linear special functions (as solutions of linear second-order equations), and non-linear special functions (as solutions of Painlevé equations) are presented as a basic and new result. Many applications to different areas of physics are shown and discussed. The book is written from a practical point of view and will address all those scientists whose work involves applications of mathematical methods. Lecturers, graduate students and researchers will find this a useful text and reference work.
System Control and Rough Paths
This book describes a completely novel mathematical development which has already influenced probability theory, and has potential for application to engineering and to areas of pure mathematics. Intended for probabilists, mathematicians and engineers with a mathematical background from graduate level onwards, this book develops the evolution of complex non-linear systems subject to rough or rapidly fluctuating stimuli. Attention is focussed on an analysis of the relationship between the stimulus (or control) and the short to medium term evolution of a receiver (the response of the system). A rapidly fluctuation stimuli can be likened to a huge dataset; and a basic question is how best to re...
Nonlinear Waves in Elastic Crystals
The mathematical modelling of changing structures in materials is of increasing importance to industry where applications of the theory are found in subjects as diverse as aerospace and medicine. This book deals with aspects of the nonlinear dynamics of deformable ordered solids (known as elastic crystals) where the nonlinear effects combine or compete with each other. Physical and mathematical models are discused and computational aspects are also included. Different models are considered - on discrete as well as continuum scales - applying heat, electricity, or magnetism to the crystal structure and these are analysed using the equations of rational mechanics. Students are introduced to the important equations of nonlinear science that describe shock waves, solitons and chaos and also the non-exactly integrable systems or partial differential equations. A large number of problems and examples are included, many taken from recent research and involving both one-dimensional and two-dimensional problems as well as some coupled degress of freedom.
