The series is aimed specifically at publishing peer reviewed reviews and contributions presented at workshops and conferences. Each volume is associated with a particular conference, symposium or workshop. These events cover various topics within pure and applied mathematics and provide up-to-date coverage of new developments, methods and applications.

The series is devoted to the publication of monographs and high-level textbooks in mathematics, mathematical methods and their applications. Apart from covering important areas of current interest, a major aim is to make topics of an interdisciplinary nature accessible to the non-specialist.

The works in this series are addressed to advanced students and researchers in mathematics and theoretical physics. In addition, it can serve as a guide for lectures and seminars on a graduate level.

This is a volume of research articles related to finite groups. Topics covered include the classification of finite simple groups, the theory of p-groups, cohomology of groups, representation theory and the theory of buildings and geometries.

As well as more than twenty original papers on the latest developments, which will be of great interest to specialists, the volume contains several expository articles, from which students and non-experts can learn about the present state of knowledge and promising directions for further research.

In view of the eminent importance of spectral theory of linear operators in many fields of mathematics and physics, it is not surprising that various attempts have been made to define and study spectra also for nonlinear operators. This book provides a comprehensive and self-contained treatment of the theory, methods, and applications of nonlinear spectral theory. The first chapter briefly recalls the definition and properties of the spectrum and several subspectra for bounded linear operators. Then some numerical characteristics for nonlinear operators are introduced which are useful for...

Following in the footsteps of the successful The Humongous Books of Calculus Problems, bestselling author Michael Kelley has taken a typical algebra workbook, and made notes in the margins, adding missing steps and simplifying concepts and solutions. Students will learn how to interpret and solve problems as they are typically presented in algebra courses--and become prepared to solve those problems that were never discussed in class but always seem to find their way onto exams.

- Annotations throughout the text clarify each...

Analysis 2 first covers the differentiability of functions of several variables and important applications for instance problems of minimization. Also the term of integration of functions with several variables based on the Lebesgue Integral is discussed in detail. It includes then supplementary chapters on Lebesgue spaces and the basics of topology as well as numerous exercises and graphical illustrations.

A thorough, self-contained and easily accessible treatment of the theory on the polynomial best approximation of functions with respect to maximum norms. The topics include Chebychev theory, Weierstrass theorems, smoothness of functions, and continuation of functions."

Dieses Lehrbuch liefert eine elementare, auch fur Studierende der Ingenieurwissenschaften geeignete Einfuhrung in die grundlegenden numerischen Verfahren zur Losung von Anfangs- und Randwertaufgaben fur gewohnliche Differentialgleichungen. Das Studium der Inhalte wird durch erganzende Modellbeispiele sowie zahlreiche theoretische und numerische Ubungsaufgaben mit Losungshinweisen erleichtert. Ein kurzer Abschnitt liefert die notwendigen Grundlagen zur Theorie der gewohnlichen Differentialgleichungen.

Starting with the Zermelo-Fraenhel axiomatic set theory, this book gives a self-contained, step-by-step construction of real and complex numbers. The basic properties of real and complex numbers are developed, including a proof of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra. Historical notes outline the evolution of the number systems and alert readers to the fact that polished mathematical concepts, as presented in lectures and books, are the culmination of the efforts of great minds over the years. The text also includes short life sketches of some of the contributing mathematicians. The book...

A compulsively readable look at the secret language of numbers- their role in nature, movies, science, and everything in between.
What do Fight Club, wallpaper patterns, George Balanchine's Serenade, and Italian superstitions have in common? They're all included in the entry for the number 17 in this engaging book about numbers- detailing their unique properties, patterns, appeal, history, and lore.
Author Derrick Niederman takes readers on a guided tour of the numbers 1 to 300-covering everything from basic mathematical principles to ancient unsolved theorems,...

This is the first of three volumes of a comprehensive and elementary treatment of finite p-group theory. Topics covered in this monograph include: (a) counting of subgroups, with almost all main counting theorems being proved, (b) regular p-groups and regularity criteria, (c) p-groups of maximal class and their numerous characterizations, (d) characters of p-groups, (e) p-groups with large Schur multiplier and commutator subgroups, (f) (p‒1)-admissible Hall chains in normal subgroups, (g) powerful p-groups, (h) automorphisms...

AN INTRODUCTION TO DIFFERENTIAL GEOMETRY WITH USE OF THE TENSOR CALCULUS By LUTHER PFAHLER EISENHART. Preface: Since 1909, when my Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces was published, the tensor calculus, which had previously been invented by Ricci, was adopted by Einstein in his General Theory of Relativity, and has been developed further in the study of Riemannian Geometry and various generalizations of the latter. In the present book the tensor calculus of cuclidean 3-space is developed and then generalized so as to apply to a Riemannian space of any number of dimensions. The tensor...

Originally published in 1800. CALCULUS OF FINITE DIFFERENCES by GEORGE BOOLE. PREFACE: IN the following exposition of the Calculus of Finite Dif ferences, particular attention has been paid to the connexion of its methods with those of the Differential Calculus a connexion which in some instances involves far more than a merely formal analogy. Indeed the work is in some measure designed as a sequel to my Treatise on Differential Equations. And it has been composed on the same plan. Mr Stirling, of Trinity College, Cambridge, has rendered me much valuable assistance in the revision of the...

International Series in Pure and Applied Mathematics WILLIAM TED MARTIN. CALCULUS OF VARIATIONS. PREFACE: There seems to have been published, up to the present time, no English language volume in which an elementary introduction to the calculus of variations is followed by extensive application of the subject to problems of physics and theoretical engineering. The present volume is offered as partial fulfillment of the need for such a book. Thus its chief purpose is twofold: ( i) To provide for the senior or first-year graduate student in mathe matics, science, or engineering an introduction...
