This thirteenth volume of the Poincare Seminar Series, Henri Poincare, 1912-2012, is published on the occasion of the centennial of the death of Henri Poincare in 1912. It presents a scholarly approach to Poincare's genius and creativity in mathematical physics and mathematics. Its five articles are also highly pedagogical, as befits their origin in lectures to a broad scientific audience. Highlights include "Poincare's Light" by Olivier Darrigol, a leading historian of science, who uses light as a guiding thread through much of Poincare 's physics and philosophy, from the application of his...

This original monograph aims to explore the dynamics in the particular but very important and significant case of quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems, or integrable systems slightly perturbed by other forces. With both analytic and numerical methods, the book studies several of these systems-including for example the hydrogen atom or the solar system, with the associated Arnold web-through modern tools such as the frequency modified fourier transform, wavelets, and the frequency modulation indicator. Meanwhile, it draws heavily on the more standard KAM and Nekhoroshev theorems....

This fifteenth volume of the Poincare Seminar Series, Dirac Matter, describes the surprising resurgence, as a low-energy effective theory of conducting electrons in many condensed matter systems, including graphene and topological insulators, of the famous equation originally invented by P.A.M.

Propagation and localization phenomena in solid state physics and, more generally, in complex and disordered media, have attracted the attention of physicists and mathematicians for many years. One of the most powerful and rigorous methods of analysis of these phenomena is so-called multi-scale analysis.
This monograph gives a systematic exposition of this method for random lattice Schrodinger operators (LSO) with interaction. These results belong to the authors; many of them are presented for the first time in the literature. The authors focus on the Anderson tight binding model,...

This book corrects popular misconceptions about China's trade surplus. It examines the relation between RMB's exchange rate and China's trade surplus and discusses how China could potentially reduce trade frictions.

This volume provides a detailed description of the seminal theoretical construction in 1964, independently by Robert Brout and Francois Englert, and by Peter W. Higgs, of a mechanism for short-range fundamental interactions, now called the Brout-Englert-Higgs (BEH) mechanism. It accounts for the non-zero mass of elementary particles and predicts the existence of a new particle - an elementary massive scalar boson. In addition to this the book describes the experimental discovery of this fundamental missing element in the Standard Model of particle physics. The H Boson, also calledthe Higgs...
