Subanalytic and semialgebraic sets were introduced for topological and systematic investigations of real analytic and algebraic sets. This text aims to show that almost all known and unknown properties of subanalytic and semialgebraic sets follow abstractly from some fundamental axioms, and it aims to develop methods of proof that use finite processes instead of integration of vector fields. Although the proofs are elementary, the results are new and of interest to, for example, singularity theorists and topologists, and the new methods and tools developed provide a basis for further research...

The seminar Symplectic Geometry at the University of Berne in summer 1992 showed that the topic of this book is a very active field, where many different branches of mathematics come tog9ther: differential geometry, topology, partial differential equations, variational calculus, and complex analysis. As usual in such a situation, it may be tedious to collect all the necessary ingredients. The present book is intended to give the nonspecialist a solid introduction to the recent developments in symplectic and contact geometry. Chapter 1 gives a review of the symplectic group Sp(n, R), sympkctic...

This book is devoted to the relation between two different concepts of integrability: the complete integrability of complex analytical Hamiltonian systems and the integrability of complex analytical linear differential equations. For linear differential equations, integrability is made precise within the framework of differential Galois theory. The connection of these two integrability notions is given by the variational equation (i.e. linearized equation) along a particular integral curve of the Hamiltonian system. The underlying heuristic idea, which motivated the main results presented...

In recent decades, quantization has led to interesting applications in various mathematical branches. This volume, comprised of research and survey articles, discusses key topics, including symplectic and algebraic geometry, representation theory, quantum groups, the geometric Langlands program, quantum ergodicity, and non-commutative geometry. A wide range of topics related to quantization are covered, giving a glimpse of the broad subject. The articles are written by distinguished mathematicians in the field and reflect subsequent developments following the Arithmetic and Geometry around...

This book explores the theory's history, recent developments, and some promising future directions through invited surveys written by prominent researchers in the field. The first three surveys provide historical background on the subject; the last three address Euclidean Ramsey theory and related coloring problems. In addition, open problems posed throughout the volume and in the concluding open problem chapter will appeal to graduate students and mathematicians alike.

A deep problem at the intersection of number and group theory is the decomposition of the space L2 (G((Q)G(/A)), where G is a reductive group defined over (Q and /A is the ring of adeles of (Q. Langlands reduced this decomposition to that of the (smaller) spaces of cuspidal automorphic forms for certain subgroups of G. The present book describes this proof in detail. The starting point is the theory of automorphic forms, which can also serve as a first step towards understanding the Arthur-Selberg trace formula. To make the book reasonably self-contained, the authors have also provided...

This second edition, divided into fourteen chapters, presents a comprehensive treatment of contact and symplectic manifolds from the Riemannian point of view. The monograph examines the basic ideas in detail and provides many illustrative examples for the reader.
Riemannian Geometry of Contact and Symplectic Manifolds, Second Edition provides new material in most chapters, but a particular emphasis remains on contact manifolds. Researchers, mathematicians, and graduate students in contact and symplectic manifold theory and in Riemannian geometry will benefit from this work. A...

La geometrie rigide est devenue, au fil des ans, un outil indispensable dans un grand nombre de questions en geometrie arithmetique. Depuis ses premieres fondations, posees par J. Tate en 1961, la theorie s'est developpee dans des directions variees. Ce livre est le premier volume d'un traite qui expose un developpement systematique de la geometrie rigide suivant l'approche de M. Raynaud, basee sur les schemas formels a eclatements admissibles pres. Ce volume est consacre a la construction des espaces rigides dans une situation relative et a l'etude de leurs proprietes geometriques....

This collection of invited expository articles focuses on recent developments and trends in infinite-dimensional Lie theory, which has become one of the core areas of modern mathematics. The book is divided into three parts: infinite-dimensional Lie (super-)algebras, geometry of infinite-dimensional Lie (transformation) groups, and representation theory of infinite-dimensional Lie groups.
Part (A) is mainly concerned with the structure and representation theory of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras and contains articles on the structure of direct-limit Lie algebras, extended affine...
