Das Gebiet des Zahlens von Gitterpunkten in Polytopen," auch Ehrhart-Theorie genannt, bietet verschiedene Verbindungen zu elementarer endlicher Fourier-Analysis, Erzeugendenfunktionen, dem Munzenproblem von Frobenius, Raumwinkeln, magischen Quadraten, Dedekind-Summen, algorithmischer Geometrie und mehr. Die Autoren haben mit dem Buch einen roten Faden geknupft, der diese Verbindungen aufzeigt und so die grundlegenden und dennoch tiefgehenden Ideen aus diskreter Geometrie, Kombinatorik und Zahlentheorie anschaulich verbindet.
Mit 250 Aufgaben und offenen Problemen fuhlt sich der...

The world is continuous, but the mind is discrete. David Mumford We seek to bridge some critical gaps between various ?elds of mathematics by studying the interplay between the continuous volume and the discrete v- ume of polytopes. Examples of polytopes in three dimensions include crystals, boxes, tetrahedra, and any convex object whose faces are all ?at. It is amusing to see how many problems in combinatorics, number theory, and many other mathematical areas can be recast in the language of polytopes that exist in some Euclidean space. Conversely, the versatile structure of polytopes gives...

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich BWL - Rechnungswesen, Bilanzierung, Steuern, Note: 1,7, Universitat Mannheim (Lehrstuhl Schreiber), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Die vorliegende Bachelor Abschlussarbeit beschaftigt sich mit dem Einfluss der Besteuerung auf die Ausschuttungspolitik von Unternehmen. Es soll herausgearbeitet werden, dass die Gewinnverwendungsentscheidung nicht unabhangig von steuerlichen Gesichtspunkten ist und einen Einblick in die Problematik der Gewinnverwendungsentscheidung unter steuerlichen Gesichtspunkten bieten. Dabei wird zunachst kurz auf die aktuelle...

Over a period of several centuries, the academic study of risk has evolved as a distinct body of thought, which continues to influence conceptual developments in fields such as economics, management, politics and sociology. However, few scholarly works have given a chronological account of cultural and intellectual trends relating to the understanding and analysis of risks. Risk: A Study of its Origins, History and Politics aims to fill this gap by providing a detailed study of key turning points in the evolution of society's understanding of risk. Using a wide range of primary and secondary...

Quality Management and Managerialism in Healthcare creates a comprehensive and systematic international survey of various perspectives on healthcare quality management together with some of their most pertinent critiques. Chapter one starts with a general discussion of the factors that drove the introduction of management paradigms into public sector and health management contexts in the mid to late 1980s. Chapter two explores the rise of risk awareness in medicine; which, prior to the 1980s, stood largely in isolation to the implementation of managerial performance targets. Chapter three...

This timely new book provides an international perspective on Public Private Partnerships. Through 21 case studies, it investigates the existing and fast developing body of principles and practices from a wide range of countries and is the first book to bring together leading international academics and practitioners under a common framework that enables convenient cross-country comparisons. The authors focus on the impact of the financial crisis has had on how governments have reviewed and overhauled their PPP policies as they have examined or tested new ways of partnering more...

This textbook illuminates the field of discrete mathematics with examples, theory, and applications of the discrete volume of a polytope. The authors have weaved a unifying thread through basic yet deep ideas in discrete geometry, combinatorics, and number theory. Because there is no other book that puts together all of these ideas in one place, this text is truly a service to the mathematical community.
We encounter here a friendly invitation to the field of "counting integer points in polytopes," also known as Ehrhart theory, and its various connections to elementary finite...
