Noncommutative geometry combines themes from algebra, analysis and geometry and has significant applications to physics. This book focuses on cyclic theory, and is based upon the lecture courses by Daniel G. Quillen at the University of Oxford from 1988–92, which developed his own approach to the subject. The basic definitions, examples and exercises provided here allow non-specialists and students with a background in elementary functional analysis, commutative algebra and differential geometry to get to grips with the subject. Quillen's development of cyclic theory emphasizes analogies...

This quick yet detailed introduction to set theory and forcing builds the reader's intuition about it as much as the mathematical detail. Intuition, rather absent from the existing literature on the subject, here plays a large role. The reader will not only learn the facts, but will understand why they are true and will be brought to ask: what else could be true? Having presented forcing in Part I, the second part of the book discusses contemporary issues in the theory of forcing. It includes known and some previously unpublished results as well as many open questions. This is ideal for those...

This textbook, aimed at advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students in mathematics, introduces both the theory of Riemann surfaces, and of analytic functions between Riemann surfaces. The first half of the book describes the basic theory, the second half develops the theory of harmonic and subharmonic functions on a Riemann surface, and culminates with a detailed proof of the famous Uniformisation Theorem and some of its applications to Riemann surface theory. The book is a major revision of the author's earlier 'Primer', with new chapters and more exercises and examples.
