Intends to bring together research ideas from various fields of mathematics which utilize the heat kernel or heat kernel techniques in their research. This collection of papers aims to broaden productive communication across mathematical sub-disciplines.

The second Arolla conference on algebraic topology brought together specialists covering a wide range of homotopy theory and $K$-theory. This title includes articles that are significant contributions to classical unstable homotopy theory, model category t

This book contains contributions from the participants of an International Conference on Complex Analysis and Dynamical Systems. The papers collected here are devoted to various topics in complex analysis and dynamical systems, ranging from properties of holomorphic mappings to attractors in hyperbolic spaces. Overall, these selections provide an overview of activity in analysis at the outset of the twenty-first century. The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers in complex analysis and related problems of dynamics. With this volume, the Israel Mathematical Conference...

Contains the proceedings of a conference on 'Jack, Hall-Littlewood and Macdonald polynomials' held at ICMS, Edinburgh, during September 23-26, 2003. This book contains historical material, including brief biographies of Hall, Littlewood, Jack and Macdonald

Contains articles reflecting the invited talks given by leading mathematicians at the International Conference on Recent Advances in Adaptive Computation that was held at Zhejiang University (Hangzhou, China). This work is suitable for graduate students an

The Fourth International Conference on Topological Algebras and Their Applications was held in Oaxaca, Mexico. This meeting brought together international specialists and Mexican specialists in topological algebras, locally convex and Banach spaces, spectral theory, and operator theory and related topics. This volume contains talks presented at the conference as well as articles received in response to a call for papers; some are expository and provide new insights, while others contain new research. The book is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians working in topological...

Presents articles by speakers and participants in two AMS special sessions, Geometric Group Theory and Geometric Methods in Group Theory, held respectively at Northeastern University (Boston, MA) and at Universidad de Sevilla (Spain). This book is suitable

The Workshop on Geometric Evolution Equations was a gathering of experts that produced this comprehensive collection of articles. Many of the papers relate to the Ricci flow and Hamilton's program for understanding the geometry and topology of 3-manifolds. The use of evolution equations in geometry can lead to remarkable results. Of particular interest is the potential solution of Thurston's Geometrization Conjecture and the Poincare Conjecture. Yet applying the method poses serioustechnical problems. Contributors to this volume explain some of these issues and demonstrate a noteworthy...

Collects papers from the proceedings of the first symposium of the Japan Association for Mathematical Sciences. This book covers topics that center around problems of geometric analysis in relation to heat kernels, random walks, and Poisson boundaries on discrete groups, graphs, and other combinatorial objects.

The first Summer School of Analysis and Mathematical Physics of the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico (Cuernavaca) offered graduate and advanced undergraduate students courses on modern topics in the overlap between analysis and physics. This volume contains the expanded notes from the lectures by Brian Hall, Alejandro Uribe, and David Borthwick. The articles introduce readers to mathematical methods of classical and quantum mechanics and the link between these two theories: quantization and semiclassical analysis.
