This book addresses the analysis of functions of a real variable and transitions from the standard calculus sequence to mathematical analysis.  The author presents the limits and convergence of sequences of functions, illustrates the limitations of the Riemann integral, and discusses the need for a new integral: the Lebesgue integral.  The fundamental concepts of the theory of calculus of one variable is presented in addition to limits, continuity, derivatives and its applications, and integrals and their applications.  The tone and language of the book is kept as...

This handbook aims to serve as a one-stop, reliable resource, including curated surveys and expository contributions on federated learning. It covers a comprehensive range of topics, providing the reader with technical and non-technical fundamentals, applications, and extensive details of various topics. The readership spans from researchers and academics to practitioners who are deeply engaged or are starting to venture into the realms of trustworthy federated learning. First introduced in 2016, federated learning allows devices to collaboratively learn a shared model while keeping raw...

This contributed volume contains chapters on various fixed-point theorems, including those in metric, b-metric and partial metric spaces. The book addresses the need for rigorous analytical methods in optimization, computational mathematics and applied sciences. By offering innovative solutions through iterative schemes and contraction principles, it bridges the gap between abstract mathematical principles and practical problem-solving approaches. The concept of fixed points has deep mathematical significance, influencing both theoretical frameworks and real-world...

Today's biggest structural engineering challenge is to design better structures, and a key issue is the need to take an integrated approach which balances control of costs with the requirement for handling earthquakes and other dynamic forces. Structural optimization is based on rigorous mathematical formulation and requires computation algorithms for sizing structural elements and synthesizing systems. Now that the right software and enough computing power are readily available, professionals can now develop a suite of alternative designs and a select suitable one.
