This monograph provides an exhaustive treatment of several classes of Noetherian rings and morphisms of Noetherian local rings. Chapters carefully examine some of the most important topics in the area, including  Nagata, F-finite and excellent rings, Bertini’s Theorem, and Cohen factorizations. Of particular interest is the presentation of Popescu’s Theorem on Neron Desingularization and the structure of regular morphisms, with a complete proof.Classes of Good Noetherian Ringswill be an invaluable resource for researchers in commutative algebra, algebraic and arithmetic geometry, and...

This monograph studies the heat kernel for the spin-tensor Laplacians on Lie groups and maximally symmetric spaces. It introduces many original ideas, methods, and tools developed by the author and provides a list of all known exact results in explicit form – and derives them – for the heat kernel on spheres and hyperbolic spaces. Part I considers the geometry of simple Lie groups and maximally symmetric spaces in detail, and Part II discusses the calculation of the heat kernel for scalar, spinor, and generic Laplacians on spheres and hyperbolic spaces in various dimensions. This text...

​This book discusses the process by which Ulam's conjecture is proved, aptly detailing how mathematical problems may be solved by systematically combining interdisciplinary theories. It presents the state-of-the-art of various research topics and methodologies in mathematics, and mathematical analysis by presenting the latest research in emerging research areas, providing motivation for further studies. The book also explores the theory of extending the domain of local isometries by introducing a generalized span.For the reader, working knowledge of topology, linear algebra, and Hilbert...
