Substitutions in Dynamics, Arithmetics and Combinatorics
ISBN: 9783540441410 / Angielski / Miękka / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A certain category of infinite strings of letters on a finite alphabet is presented here, chosen among the 'simplest' possible one may build, both because they are very deterministic and because they are built by simple rules (a letter is replaced by a word, a sequence is produced by iteration). These substitutive sequences have a surprisingly rich structure.
The authors describe the concepts of quantity of natural interactions, with combinatorics on words, ergodic theory, linear algebra, spectral theory, geometry of tilings, theoretical computer science, diophantine approximation,...

Hilbert Modular Forms
ISBN: 9783540505860 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Important results on the Hilbert modular group and Hilbert modular forms are introduced and described in this book. In recent times, this branch of number theory has been given more and more attention and thus the need for a comprehensive presentation of these results, previously scattered in research journal papers, has become obvious. The main aim of this book is to give a description of the singular cohomology and its Hodge decomposition including explicit formulae. The author has succeeded in giving proofs which are both elementary and complete.

Lectures on the Geometry of Numbers
ISBN: 9783540506294 / Angielski / Twarda / 162 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Carl Ludwig Siegel gave a course of lectures on the Geometry of Numbers at New York University during the academic year 1945-46, when there were hardly any books on the subject other than Minkowski's original one. This book offers an introduction to Minkowski's work. It reveals the workings of a remarkable mind, such as Siegel's.

Number Theory III: Diophantine Geometry
ISBN: 9783540612230 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In 1988 Shafarevich asked me to write a volume for the Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences on Diophantine Geometry. I said yes, and here is the volume. By definition, diophantine problems concern the solutions of equations in integers, or rational numbers, or various generalizations, such as finitely generated rings over Z or finitely generated fields over Q. The word Geometry is tacked on to suggest geometric methods. This means that the present volume is not elementary. For a survey of some basic problems with a much more elementary approach, see La 9Oc]. The field of diophantine...

Groups Acting on Hyperbolic Space: Harmonic Analysis and Number Theory
ISBN: 9783540627456 / Angielski / Twarda / 524 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book is concerned with discontinuous groups of motions of the unique connected and simply connected Riemannian 3-manifold of constant curva- ture -1, which is traditionally called hyperbolic 3-space. This space is the 3-dimensional instance of an analogous Riemannian manifold which exists uniquely in every dimension n:::: 2. The hyperbolic spaces appeared first in the work of Lobachevski in the first half of the 19th century. Very early in the last century the group of isometries of these spaces was studied by Steiner, when he looked at the group generated by the inversions in spheres....

A History of Algorithms: From the Pebble to the Microchip
ISBN: 9783540633693 / Angielski / Miękka / 524 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. A Source Book for the History of Mathematics, but one which offers a different perspective by focusinng on algorithms. With the development of computing has come an awakening of interest in algorithms. Often neglected by historians and modern scientists, more concerned with the nature of concepts, algorithmic procedures turn out to have been instrumental in the development of fundamental ideas: practice led to theory just as much as the other way round. The purpose of this book is to offer a historical background to contemporary algorithmic practice.

Reciprocity Laws: From Euler to Eisenstein
ISBN: 9783540669579 / Angielski / Twarda / 492 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The history of reciprocity laws is a history of algebraic number theory. This is a book on reciprocity laws, and our introductory remark is placed at the beginning as a warning: in fact a reader who is acquainted with little more than a course in elementary number theory may be surprised to learn that quadratic reciprocity does - in a sense that we will explain - belong to the realm of algebraic number theory. Heeke { 348, p. 59]) has formulated this as follows: Von der Entdeckung des Reziprozitiitsgesetzes kann man die mo derne Zahlentheorie datieren. Seiner Form nach gehort es noch der...

P. Snow "two-culture" problem, and mistreatment of women in academia. These engaging stories fully capture the experiences of a student and later a scientist caught up in the tumultuous events of...

Elements of Logic Via Numbers and Sets
ISBN: 9783540761235 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In mathematics we are interested in why a particular formula is true. Intuition and statistical evidence are insufficient, so we need to construct a formal logical proof. The purpose of this book is to describe why such proofs are important, what they are made of, how to recognize valid ones, how to distinguish different kinds, and how to construct them. This book is written for 1st year students with no previous experience of formulating proofs. Dave Johnson has drawn from his considerable experience to provide a text that concentrates on the most important elements of the subject using...

Number Theoretic Methods in Cryptography: Complexity Lower Bounds
ISBN: 9783764358884 / Angielski / Twarda / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The book introduces new techniques which imply rigorous lower bounds on the complexity of some number theoretic and cryptographic problems. These methods and techniques are based on bounds of character sums and numbers of solutions of some polynomial equations over finite fields and residue rings. It also contains a number of open problems and proposals for further research. We obtain several lower bounds, exponential in terms of logp, on the de grees and orders of polynomials; algebraic functions; Boolean functions; linear recurring sequences; coinciding with values of the discrete logarithm...

Generalization Steinberg Groups
ISBN: 9789810220280 / Angielski / Twarda / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Steinberg relations are the commutator relations which hold between elementary matrices in a special linear group. This text generalizes these sorts of relations. To encode these relations one needs a ring and a so-called linkage graph which specifies exactly which commutator relations hold. The groups obtained here, called linkage groups, have an enormous number of interesting images, finite and infinite. Among these images are, for example, 25 of the 26 finite sporadic simple groups. The book deals with the structure and classification of linkage groups. Part of the work involves...
