Discusses the role of Alexandrov-Clark measures. This book presents an introduction to the theory of Alexandrov-Clark measures and to its applications in the spectral theory of linear operators.

Covers topics in partial differential equations and several complex variables. This book includes geometry of complex manifolds, the mean curvature equation, formal solutions of singular partial differential equations, and complex vector fields. It is suit

This volume contains 14 cutting-edge research articles on algebraic and analytic aspects of singularities of spaces and maps. By reading this volume, and the accompanying volume on geometric and topological aspects of singularities, the reader should gain an appreciation for the depth, breadth, and beauty of the subject.

This volume contains articles representing the courses given at the 2005 RSME Santalo Summer School on 'Recent Trends in Cryptography'. The topics cover come of the most interesting developments in public key and symmetric key cryptography such as paring based cryptography and lattice based cryptanalysis."

This book contains papers presented by speakers at the AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Research Conference on Conformal Field Theory, Topological Field Theory and Quantum Groups, held at Mount Holyoke College in June 1992. One group of papers deals with one aspect of conformal field theory, namely, vertex operator algebras or superalgebras and their representations. Another group deals with various aspects of quantum groups. Other topics covered include the theory of knots in three-manifolds, symplectic geometry, and tensor products. This book provides an excellent view of some of the latest...

This volume contains the refereed proceedings of the special session on Optimization and Nonlinear Analysis held at the Joint American Mathematical Society-Israel Mathematical Union Meeting which took place at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in May 1995. Most of the papers in this book originated from the lectures delivered at this special session. In addition, some participants who didn't present lectures and invited speakers who were unable to attend contributed their work. The fields of optimization theory and nonlinear analysis continue to be very active. This book presents not only...

Graph coloring is one of the oldest and best-known problems of graph theory. Statistics show that graph coloring is one of the central issues in the collection of several hundred classical combinatorial problems. This book covers the problems in graph coloring, which can be viewed as one area of discrete optimization.
