General Relativity and the Einstein Equations
General Relativity has passed all experimental and observational tests to model the motion of isolated bodies with strong gravitational fields, though the mathematical and numerical study of these motions is still in its infancy. It is believed that General Relativity models our cosmos, with a manifold of dimensions possibly greater than four and debatable topology opening a vast field of investigation for mathematicians and physicists alike. Remarkable conjectures have been proposed, many results have been obtained but many fundamental questions remain open. In this monograph, aimed at researchers in mathematics and physics, the author overviews the basic ideas in General Relativity, introduces the necessary mathematics and discusses some of the key open questions in the field.
Compact Manifolds with Special Holonomy
This is a combination of a graduate textbook on Reimannian holonomy groups, and a research monograph on compact manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups G2 and Spin (7). It contains much new research and many new examples.
Traces and Determinants of Pseudodifferential Operators
This text is the first to deal with the general theory of traces and determinants of operators on manifolds in a broad context, encompassing a number of the principle applications and backed up by specific computations which set out in detail to newcomers the nuts-and-bolts of the basic theory.
Geometric Quantization
This book presents a survey of the geometric quantization theory of Kostant and Souriau and was first published in 1980. It has been extensively rewritten and brought up to date, with the addition of many new examples.
Introduction to Symplectic Topology
Over the last number of years powerful new methods in analysis and topology have led to the development of the modern global theory of symplectic topology, including several striking and important results. This new third edition of a classic book in the feild includes updates and new material to bring the material right up-to-date.
The Theory of Infinite Soluble Groups
The central concept in this monograph is that of a soluble group - a group which is built up from abelian groups by repeatedly forming group extensions. It covers all the major areas, including finitely generated soluble groups, soluble groups of finite rank, modules over group rings, algorithmic problems, applications of cohomology, and finitely presented groups, whilst remaining fairly strictly within the boundaries of soluble group theory. An up-to-date survey of the area aimed at research students and academic algebraists and group theorists, it is a compendium of information that will be especially useful as a reference work for researchers in the field.
Complex Hyperbolic Geometry
Complex hyperbolic geometry is a particularly rich area of study, enhanced by the confluence of several areas of research including Riemannian geometry, complex analysis, symplectic and contact geometry, Lie group theory, and harmonic analysis. The boundary of complex hyperbolic geometry, known as spherical CR or Heisenberg geometry, is equally rich, and although there exist accounts of analysis in such spaces there is currently no account of their geometry. This book redresses the balance and provides an overview of the geometry of both the complex hyperbolic space and its boundary. Motivated by applications of the theory to geometric structures, moduli spaces and discrete groups, it is designed to provide an introduction to this fascinating and important area and invite further research and development.
System Control and Rough Paths
This work 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: the evolution of complex non-linear systems subject to rough or rapidly fluctuating stimuli.
