Metric and Differential Geometry

Metric and Differential Geometry grew out of a similarly named conference held at Chern Institute of Mathematics, Tianjin and Capital Normal University, Beijing. The various contributions to this volume cover a broad range of topics in metric and differential geometry, including metric spaces, Ricci flow, Einstein manifolds, Kähler geometry, index theory, hypoelliptic Laplacian and analytic torsion. It offers the most recent advances as well as surveys the new developments. Contributors: M.T. Anderson J.-M. Bismut X. Chen X. Dai R. Harvey P. Koskela B. Lawson X. Ma R. Melrose W. Müller A.

Materials Science and Metallurgical Technology II

This volume contains papers which were presented at the International Russian Conference on Materials Science and Metallurgical Technology(RusMetalCon-2019, October 1-4, 2019, Chelyabinsk, Russian Federation) and are devoted to discussion of the latest achievements in the field of material science and metallurgical technologies: design, synthesis and characterization of material, pyrometallurgical processes, foundry production, welding, metal forming, additive manufacturing. We hope this collection will be useful and interesting for many researchers and engineers from industrial enterprises.

Mirror Symmetry and Algebraic Geometry

Mirror symmetry began when theoretical physicists made some astonishing predictions about rational curves on quintic hypersurfaces in four-dimensional projective space. Understanding the mathematics behind these predictions has been a substantial challenge. This book is the first completely comprehensive monograph on mirror symmetry, covering the original observations by the physicists through the most recent progress made to date. Subjects discussed include toric varieties, Hodge theory, Kahler geometry, moduli of stable maps, Calabi-Yau manifolds, quantum cohomology, Gromov-Witten invariants, and the mirror theorem. This title features: numerous examples worked out in detail; an appendix on mathematical physics; an exposition of the algebraic theory of Gromov-Witten invariants and quantum cohomology; and, a proof of the mirror theorem for the quintic threefold.

  • Publisher: Birkhäuser

This book presents the original proof of Gromov's compactness theorem for pseudo-holomorphic curves in detail. Local properties of pseudo-holomorphic curves are investigated and proved from a geometric viewpoint. Properties of particular interest are isoperimetric inequalities, a monotonicity formula, gradient bounds and the removal of singularities.

Structure and Properties of Lengthy Rails after Extreme Long-Term Operation

The long-term operation of rails has been studied with focus on (1) the formation and behavior of structural-phase states and nanoscale structures, (2) the modelling of the processes occurring in the surface layers of rails under severe plastic deformation and (3) the methods and techniques for assessing the structural and phase states of rails, internal stresses, and their evolution during the life cycle. The book references 264 original resources and includes their direct web link for in-depth reading. Keywords: Long Rails, Long-term Operation, Transmission Electron Microscopy, Steel, Differentiated Hardening, Structural Phase States, Nanoscale Structures, Wear, Deformation Effects, Recrystallization, Segregation, Homogenization, Relaxation, Phase Transitions, Phase Decomposition, Amorphization, Sintering, Filling of Micro- and Nanopores, Nanocapillaries, Severe Plastic Deformation, Megaplastic Deformation.

"A kind stranger helps Jenna Cooper protect her baby boy when a killer tornado rips through a Dallas flea market. But in the aftermath, Jenna can't find her son or the woman who'd been holding him. Upon discovering the tragedy, reporter and single mom Kate Page, battling for her career and trying to hold her life together, vows to determine what happened to tiny Caleb Cooper. As the FBI launches an investigation amid the devastation, Kate uncovers troubling clues to the trail of the woman last seen with the baby--clues that reveal a plot more sinister than anybody had imagined. Against mounting odds, Kate risks everything in the race to find the truth...before it's too late"--Page [4] of cover.

Structure and Properties of High-Entropy Alloys

This book provides an overview of high entropy alloys, explaining all the basics of this new class of materials that emerged at the beginning of the 21st: It begins with the basics of the manufacturing methods of high entropy alloys and discusses the mechanical properties and deformation mechanisms of high entropy alloys. Then the book addresses the stability of these alloys and explores the prospects of high entropy alloys for applications.This book is intended as an introduction for physicists and materials scientists who need to become familiar with high entropy alloys.
