In this volume the authors represent the leading areas of research in semigroup theory and its applications, both to other areas of mathematics and to areas outside mathematics. The editors include papers that survey Clifford's work on Clifford semigroups and trace the influence of Clifford's work on current semigroup theory. Also notable is a paper on applications from other areas of mathematics to semigroup theory, and a paper on an application of semigroup theory to theoretical computer science and mathematical logic. All workers in semigroup theory will find this volume invaluable.

Of all topological algebraic structures compact topological groups have perhaps the richest theory since 80 many different fields contribute to their study: Analysis enters through the representation theory and harmonic analysis; differential geo metry, the theory of real analytic functions and the theory of differential equations come into the play via Lie group theory; point set topology is used in describing the local geometric structure of compact groups via limit spaces; global topology and the theory of manifolds again playa role through Lie group theory; and, of course, algebra enters...

This revised and enlarged fifth edition features four new chapters, which contain highly original and delightful proofs for classics such as the spectral theorem from linear algebra, some more recent jewels like the non-existence of the Borromean rings and other surprises.
