Geometry of Subanalytic and Semialgebraic Sets
ISBN: 9780817640002 / Angielski / Twarda / 431 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 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...

New Paths Towards Quantum Gravity
ISBN: 9783642118968 / Angielski / Miękka / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Aside from the obvious statement that it should be a theory capable of unifying general relativity and quantum field theory, not much is known about the true nature of quantum gravity. New ideas - and there are many of them for this is an exciting field of research - often diverge to a degree where it seems impossible to decide in which of the many possible direction(s) the ongoing developments should be further sustained. The division of the book in two (overlapping) parts reflects the duality between the physical vision and the mathematical construction. The former is...

Complex Spaces in Finsler, Lagrange and Hamilton Geometries

From a historical point of view, the theory we submit to the present study has its origins in the famous dissertation of P. Finsler from 1918 ( Fi]). In a the classical notion also conventional classification, Finsler geometry has besides a number of generalizations, which use the same work technique and which can be considered self-geometries: Lagrange and Hamilton spaces. Finsler geometry had a period of incubation long enough, so that few math- ematicians (E. Cartan, L. Berwald, S.S. Chem, H. Rund) had the patience to penetrate into a universe of tensors, which made them compare it to a...

Fractured Fractals and Broken Dreams: Self-Similar Geometry Through Metric and Measure
ISBN: 9780198501664 / Angielski / Twarda / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Fractal patterns have emerged in many contexts, but what exactly is a pattern? How can one make precise the structures lying within objects and the relationships between them? This book proposes new notions of coherent geometric structure to provide a fresh approach to this familiar field. It develops a new concept of self-similarity called "BPI" or "big pieces of itself," which makes the field much easier for people to enter. This new framework is quite broad, however, and has the potential to lead to significant discoveries. The text covers a wide range of open problems, large and small,...
