Exterior Differential Calculus and Applications to Economic Theory
ISBN: 9788876422515 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. During the academic year 1995/96, I was invited by the Scuola Normale Superiore to give a series of lectures. The purpose of these notes is to make the underlying economic problems and the mathematical theory of exterior differential systems accessible to a larger number of people. It is the purpose of these notes to go over these results at a more leisurely pace, keeping in mind that mathematicians are not familiar with economic theory and that very few people have read Elie Cartan.

The Best of All Possible Worlds: Mathematics and Destiny
ISBN: 9780226199955 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Optimists believe this is the best of all possible worlds. And pessimists fear that might really be the case. But what "is" the best of all possible worlds? How do we define it? This question has preoccupied philosophers and theologians for ages, but there was a time, during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, when scientists and mathematicians felt they could provide the answer.
This book is their story. Ivar Ekeland here takes the reader on a journey through scientific attempts to envision the best of all possible worlds. He begins with the French physicist Maupertuis, whose... Optimists believe this is the best of all possible worlds. And pessimists fear that might really be the case.

Convexity Methods in Hamiltonian Mechanics
ISBN: 9783642743337 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. In the case of completely integrable systems, periodic solutions are found by inspection. For nonintegrable systems, such as the three-body problem in celestial mechanics, they are found by perturbation theory: there is a small parameter in the problem, the mass of the perturbing body for instance, and for = 0 the system becomes completely integrable. One then tries to show that its periodic solutions will subsist for -# 0 small enough. Poincare also introduced global methods, relying on the topological properties of the flow, and the fact that it preserves the 2-form L =l dPi 1 dqi' The most...

The Broken Dice, and Other Mathematical Tales of Chance
ISBN: 9780226199924 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Ivar Ekeland extends his consideration of the catastrophe theory of the universe begun in his widely acclaimed "Mathematics and the Unexpected, " by drawing on rich literary sources, particularly the Norse saga of Saint Olaf, and such current topics as chaos theory, information theory, and particle physics.
"Ivar Ekeland gained a large and enthusiastic following with "Mathematics and the Unexpected, " a brilliant and charming exposition of fundamental new discoveries in the theory of dynamical systems. "The Broken Dice" continues the same theme, and in the same elegant, seemingly...

Mathematics and the Unexpected
ISBN: 9780226199900 / Angielski / Miękka / 1990 / 154 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. "Not the least unexpected thing about "Mathematics and the Unexpected" is that a real mathematician should write not just a literate work, but a literary one." Ian Stewart, "New Scientist"
"In this brief, elegant treatise, assessable to anyone who likes to think, Ivar Ekelund explains some philosophical implications of recent mathematics. He examines randomness, the geometry involved in making predictions, and why general trends are easy to project (it will snow in January) but particulars are practically impossible (it will snow from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the 21st)." "Village Voice"" "Not the least unexpected thing about "Mathematics and the Unexpected" is that a real mathematician should write not just a literate work, but a liter...
