This undergraduate textbook provides a comprehensive treatment of Euclidean and transformational geometries, supplemented by substantial discussions of topics from various non-Euclidean and less commonly taught geometries, making it ideal for both mathematics majors and pre-service teachers. Emphasis is placed on developing students' deductive reasoning skills as they are guided through proofs, constructions, and solutions to problems.  The text frequently emphasizes strategies and heuristics of problem solving including constructing proofs (Where to begin? How to proceed? Which...

Convex functions play an important role in almost all branches of mathematics as well as other areas of science and engineering. This book is a thorough introduction to contemporary convex function theory addressed to all people whose research or teaching interests intersect with the field of convexity. It covers a large variety of subjects, from the one real variable case (with all its mathematical gems) to some of the most advanced topics such as Choquet's theory, the Prekopa-Leindler type inequalities and their ramifications, as well as the variational approach of partial differential...

This book presents many of the main developments of the past two decades in the study of real submanifolds in complex space, providing crucial background material for researchers and advanced graduate students. The techniques in this area borrow from real and complex analysis and partial differential equations, as well as from differential, algebraic, and analytical geometry. In turn, these latter areas have been enriched over the years by the study of problems in several complex variables addressed here. The authors, M. Salah Baouendi, Peter Ebenfelt, and Linda Preiss Rothschild, include...

Many parallels between complex dynamics and hyperbolic geometry have emerged in the past decade. Building on work of Sullivan and Thurston, this book gives a unified treatment of the construction of fixed-points for renormalization and the construction of hyperbolic 3- manifolds fibering over the circle.

Both subjects are studied via geometric limits and rigidity. This approach shows open hyperbolic manifolds are inflexible, and yields quantitative counterparts to Mostow rigidity. In complex dynamics, it motivates the construction of towers of quadratic-like maps, and leads to a...
