This volume contains three papers on the foundations of Grothendieck duality on Noetherian formal schemes and on not-necessarily-Noetherian ordinary schemes. The first paper presents a self-contained treatment for formal schemes which synthesizes several duality-related topics, such as local duality, formal duality, residue theorems and dualizing complexes. Included is an exposition of properties of torsion sheaves and of limits of coherent sheaves.

This volume presents original research papers and expository articles from the conference in honour of Walter A. Strauss's 60th birthday, held at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. The book offers a collection of original papers and expository articles mainly devoted to the study of nonlinear wave equations. The articles cover a wide range of topics, including scattering theory, dispersive waves, classical field theory, mathematical fluid dynamics, kinetic theory, stability theory, and variational methods. The book offers a cross-section of current trends and research directions in...

Contains proceedings that reflects the 2001 Ahlfors-Bers Colloquium held at the University of Connecticut (Storrs). This book is suitable for graduate students and researchers interested in complex analysis.

Contains articles that cover a wide range of important topics in mathematics, and are based on talks given at the conference commemorating the 150th anniversary of Washington University in St Louis. The volume is also prefaced by a brief history of the Was

Reflects the major themes of the American Mathematical Society/Association for Symbolic Logic Joint Special Session (Baltimore, MD), Interactions between Logic, Group Theory and Computer Science. This title is suitable for graduate students and researchers

Comprised of papers from the IIIrd Prairie Analysis Seminar held at Kansas State University, this book reflects the many directions of the research in harmonic analysis and partial differential equations. It is suitable for graduate students and research m

Category theory has become the universal language of modern mathematics. This book presents a collection of articles applying methods of category theory to the areas of algebra, geometry, and mathematical physics. It also contains articles on higher catego

Features articles that are based on talks given at the international conference "Lie algebras, vertex operator algebras and their applications", in honor of James Lepowsky and Robert Wilson on their sixtieth birthdays, held in May of 2005 at North Carolina

This volume reflects the proceedings of the International Conference on Representations of Affine and Quantum Affine Algebras and Their Applications, held at North Carolina State University (Raleigh). The theory of affine and quantum affine Lie algebras has become an important area of mathematical research with numerous applications in other areas of mathematics and physics. Three areas of progress are the focus of this volume: affine and quantum affine algebras and their generalizations, vertex operator algebras and their representations, and applications in combinatorics and statistical...

This volume presents the proceedings from a conference honouring the work of Leon Ehrenpreis. Professor Ehrenpreis worked in many different areas of mathematics and found connections among all of them. For example, one can find his analytic ideas in the context of number theory, geometric thinking within analysis, transcendental number theory applied to partial differential equations, and more. The conference brought together the communities of mathematicians working in the areas of interest to Professor Ehrenpreis and allowed them to share the research inspired by his work.
