Suitable for readers who want to learn about the Newtonian $N$-body problem, this book contains simple explanations of the apparent 'looping' orbit of Mars and the unexpected 'Sunrise, Sunset' behavior as viewed from Mercury. It also covers the weird dynam

Modular forms appear in many ways in number theory. This book details various roles that modular forms and $q$-series play in number theory, such as applications and connections to basic hypergeometric functions, Gaussian hypergeometric functions, super-congruences, Weierstrass points on modular curves, singular moduli, and class numbers.

Although division algebras are a very classical object, this book presents this 'classical' material in a new way, highlighting various approaches and fresh theorems, and illuminating the connections with a variety of areas in mathematics. It is based on lectures on division algebras given at a conference held at Colorado State University.

The purpose of this book is to explain systematically and clearly many of the most important techniques set forth in recent years for using weak convergence methods to study nonlinear partial differential equations. This work represents an expanded version of a series of ten talks presented by the author at Loyola University of Chicago in the Summer of 1988.

Beautifully written and elegantly presented, this book is based on 10 lectures given at the CBMS workshop on spectral graph theory in June 1994 at Fresno State University. Chung's well-written exposition can be likened to a conversation with a good teacher - one who not only gives you the facts, but tells you what is really going on, why it is worth doing, and how it is related to familiar ideas in other areas. The monograph is accessible to the nonexpert who is interested in reading about this evolving area of mathematics.
