Geometric Analysis and the Calculus of Variations
This volume is dedicated to the ideas of Stefan Hildebrant, whose doctrinal students include Bernd Schmidt and Klaus Stefan. His solution to the boundry regularity question for minimal surfaces bounded by a pescribed Jordan curve brought him world fame.
Calculus of Variations I
This two-volume treatise is a standard reference in the field. It pays special attention to the historical aspects and the origins partly in applied problems—such as those of geometric optics—of parts of the theory. It contains an introduction to each chapter, section, and subsection and an overview of the relevant literature in the footnotes and bibliography. It also includes an index of the examples used throughout the book.
Minimal Surfaces
Minimal Surfaces is the first volume of a three volume treatise on minimal surfaces (Grundlehren Nr. 339-341). Each volume can be read and studied independently of the others. The central theme is boundary value problems for minimal surfaces. The treatise is a substantially revised and extended version of the monograph Minimal Surfaces I, II (Grundlehren Nr. 295 & 296). The first volume begins with an exposition of basic ideas of the theory of surfaces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, followed by an introduction of minimal surfaces as stationary points of area, or equivalently, as surfaces of zero mean curvature. The final definition of a minimal surface is that of a nonconstant harmoni...
The Parsimonious Universe
Why does nature prefer some shapes and not others? The variety of sizes, shapes, and irregularities in nature is endless. Skillfully integrating striking full-color illustrations, the authors describe the efforts by scientists and mathematicians since the Renaissance to identify and describe the principles underlying the shape of natural forms. But can one set of laws account for both the symmetry and irregularity as well as the infinite variety of nature's designs? A complete answer to this question is likely never to be discovered. Yet, it is fascinating to see how the search for some simple universal laws down through the ages has increased our understanding of nature. The Parsimonious Universe looks at examples from the world around us at a non-mathematical, non-technical level to show that nature achieves efficiency by being stingy with the energy it expends.
Analysis 2
Der zweite Band dieses Lehrbuchs der Analysis umfaßt den Stoff des zweiten Semesters eines mathematischen Grundstudiums für Studierende der Mathematik, Physik und Informatik. Der klare und übersichtliche Aufbau berücksichtigt, daß schon frühzeitig die mathematischen Hilfsmittel erörtert werden, die zum Verständnis der physikalischen Grundvorlesungen unerläßlich sind. In Verbindung mit Band 1 ist so ein Leitfaden für das Studium der Analysis entstanden, der das in den ersten beiden Studiensemestern zu erwerbende mathematische Grundwissen umfaßt. Ausführliche Beweise und Erläuterungen sowie zahlreiche Beispiele und interessante Übungsaufgaben eignen es sehr gut für das Selbststudium. Ein klarer und übersichtlicher Aufbau und eine geschickte Gliederung des Stoffes ermöglichen, das erste Studium auf Kernbereiche zu beschränken. Geometrische Intuition und historische Motivation in Verbindung mit einer maßvollen Abstraktion kennzeichnen diese moderne Einführung in die Analysis.
Toward Bridging the Gap Between Formal Semantics and Implementation of Triple Graph Grammars
The correctness of model transformations is a crucial element for the model-driven engineering of high quality software. A prerequisite to verify model transformations at the level of the model transformation specification is that an unambiguous formal semantics exists and that the employed implementation of the model transformation language adheres to this semantics. However, for existing relational model transformation approaches it is usually not really clear under which constraints particular implementations are really conform to the formal semantics. In this paper, we will bridge this gap for the formal semantics of triple graph grammars (TGG) and an existing efficient implementation. W...
Partial Differential Equations and Calculus of Variations
This volume contains 18 invited papers by members and guests of the former Sonderforschungsbereich in Bonn (SFB 72) who, over the years, collaborated on the research group "Solution of PDE's and Calculus of Variations". The emphasis is on existence and regularity results, on special equations of mathematical physics and on scattering theory.
Calculus of Variations II
This book by two of the foremost researchers and writers in the field is the first part of a treatise that covers the subject in breadth and depth, paying special attention to the historical origins of the theory. Both individually and collectively these volumes have already become standard references.
Mathematics and Optimal Form
Looks at the history of the calculus of variations, describes the connection between soap films and mathematical structure, and discusses the design of buildings and living things
Minimal Surfaces II
Minimal Surfaces I is an introduction to the field of minimal surfaces and a presentation of the classical theory as well as of parts of the modern development centered around boundary value problems. Part II deals with the boundary behaviour of minimal surfaces. Part I is particularly apt for students who want to enter this interesting area of analysis and differential geometry which during the last 25 years of mathematical research has been very active and productive. Surveys of various subareas will lead the student to the current frontiers of knowledge and can also be useful to the researcher. The lecturer can easily base courses of one or two semesters on differential geometry on Vol. 1...
