This volume grew out of a workshop on spectral theory of differential operators and inverse problems held at the Research Institute for Mathematical Sciences (Kyoto University). The gathering of nearly 100 participants at the conference suggests the increasing interest in this field of research. The focus of the book is on spectral theory for differential operators and related inverse problems. It includes selected topics from the following areas: electromagnetism, elasticity, the Schrodinger equation, differential geometry, and numerical analysis. The material is suitable for graduate...

Deals systematically with connections between algebraic number theory and low-dimensional topology. This book discusses various interactions between number theory and low-dimensional topology.

This volume presents the proceedings of the workshop on higher category theory and mathematical physics held at Northwestern University. Exciting new developments were presented with the aim of making them better known outside the community of experts. In particular, presentations in the style, Higher Categories for the Working Mathematician, were encouraged. This volume brings together developments in higher category theory with applications.

The AMS-IMS-SIAM Joint Summer Research Conference 'Integer Points in Polyhedra-Geometry, Number Theory, Representation Theory, Algebra, Optimization, Statistics' was held in Snowbird, Utah in June 2006. This work contains research and survey articles origi

This collection of invited lectures reflects the state-of-the-art in this branch of mathematics and mathematical physics. This is a self-contained book on modern quantum field theory in the context of cohomological methods and the geometry of nonlinear PDEs.

Contains papers that cover a wide variety of topics in the geometric theory of functions of one and several complex variables, including univalent functions, conformal and quasiconformal mappings, minimal surfaces, and dynamics in infinite-dimensional spac

This volume presents the proceedings of the workshop Harmonic Functions on Graphs held at the Graduate Centre of CUNY in the autumn of 1995. The main papers present material from four minicourses given by leading experts: D. Cartwright, A. Fig a-Talamanca, S. Sawyer, and T. Steger. These minicrouses are introductions which gradually progress to deeper and less known branches of the subject. One of the topics treated is buildings, which are discrete analogues of symmetric spaces of arbitrary rank; buildings of rank are trees. Harmonic analysis on buildings is a fairly new and important field...

Presents the proceedings of AMS-IMS-SIAM Summer Research Conference on Categories in Computer Science and Logic that was held at the University of Colorado in Boulder. This book discusses the use of category theory in formalizing aspects of computer programming and program design.

This volume contains the proceedings of the eighth International Conference on Finite Fields and Applications, held in Melbourne, Australia, July 9-13, 2007. It contains five invited survey papers as well as original research articles covering various theoretical and applied areas related to finite fields.

This is a collection of research papers presented at the program on Moving Interface Problems and Applications in Fluid Dynamics, which was held between January 8 and March 31, 2007 at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences (IMS) of the National University of Singapore.
