These notes treat in full detail the theory of representations of the group of automorphisms of a homogeneous tree.

These volumes form an authoritative statement of the current state of research in Operator Algebras.

The core model, K, is a generalization of Godel's constructible universe of set theory; K is used to produce 'fine structural' results of a less restrictive kind. This book aims to introduce the core model to those with a basic knowledge of axiomatic set theory. The covering lemma for K is the main technical result but other applications are also considered. The author gives a full exposition of general fine structure and of iterated ultrapowers and concludes the work with a short section on the difficulties encountered in constructing more general core models using 'extenders'."

The articles collected here are the texts of the invited lectures given at the Eighth British Combinatorial Conference held at University College, Swansea.

The purpose of this unique book is to establish purely algebraic foundations for the development of certain parts of topology.

Stiefel manifolds are an interesting family of spaces much studied by algebraic topologists.

Sheaf theory provides a means of discussing many different kinds of geometric objects in respect of the connection between their local and global properties.

These notes provide a reasonably self-contained introductory survey of certain aspects of harmonic analysis on compact groups. The first part of the book seeks to give a brief account of integration theory on compact Hausdorff spaces. The second, larger part starts from the existence and essential uniqueness of an invariant integral on every compact Hausdorff group. Topics subsequently outlined include representations, the Peter Weyl theory, positive definite functions, summability and convergence, spans of translates, closed ideals and invariant subspaces, spectral synthesis problems, the...
