The Cohomology of Groups
ISBN: 9780198535805 / Angielski / Twarda / 1991 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This expertly written volume presents a useful, coherent account of the theory of the cohomology ring of a finite group. The book employs a modern approach from the point of view of homological algebra, and covers themes such as finite generation theorems, the cohomology of wreath products, the norm map, and variety theory. Prerequisites comprise a familiarity with modern algebra comparable to that offered in introductory graduate courses, although otherwise the book is self-contained. As a result, it will be useful for those already engaged or commencing research in this area of mathematics...

Categories of Commutative Algebras
ISBN: 9780198535867 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book studies the universal constructions and properties in categories of commutative algebras, bringing out the specific properties that make commutative algebra and algebraic geometry work. Two universal constructions are presented and used here for the first time. The author shows that the concepts and constructions arising in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry are not bound so tightly to the absolute universe of rings, but possess a universality that is independent of them and can be interpreted in various categories of discourse. This brings new flexibility to classical...

P-Adic Methods and Their Applications
ISBN: 9780198535942 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The p-adic numbers and more generally local fields have become increasingly important in a wide range of mathematical disciplines. They are now seen as essential tools in many areas, including number theory, algebraic geometry, group representation theory, the modern theory of automorphic forms, and algebraic topology. A number of texts have recently become available which provide good general introductions to p-adic numbers and p-adic analysis. However, there is at present a gap between such books and the sophisticated applications in the research literature. The aim of this book is to...

This book principally concerns the rapidly growing area of what might be termed "Logical Complexity Theory": the study of bounded arithmetic, propositional proof systems, length of proof, and similar themes, and the relations of these topics to computational complexity theory. Issuing from a two-year international collaboration, the book contains articles concerning the existence of the most general unifier, a special case of Kreisel's conjecture on length-of-proof, propositional logic proof size, a new alternating logtime algorithm for boolean formula evaluation and relation to branching...

Cardinal Arithmetic
ISBN: 9780198537854 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 520 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Is the continuum hypothesis still open? If we interpret it as finding the laws of cardinal arithmetic (or exponentiation, since addition and multiplication were classically solved), the hypothesis would be solved by the independence results of Godel, Cohen, and Easton, with some isolated positive results (like Gavin-Hajnal). Most mathematicians expect that only more independence results remain to be proved. In Cardinal Arithmetic, however, Saharon Shelah offers an alternative view. By redefining the hypothesis, he gets new results for the conventional cardinal arithmetic, finds new...

The Restricted Burnside Problem
ISBN: 9780198537861 / Angielski / Twarda / 1993 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In 1902 William Burnside wrote "A still undecided point in the theory of discontinuous groups is whether the order of a group may not be finite while the order of every operation it contains is finite." Since then, the Burnside problem has inspired a considerable amount of research. This popular text provides a comprehensive account of the many recent results obtained in studies of the restricted Burnside problem by making extensive use of Lie ring techniques that provide for a uniform treatment of the field. The updated and revised second edition includes a new chapter on Zelmanov's highly...

This book provides an incisive, basic introduction to many-valued logics and to the constructions that are "many-valued" at their origin. Using the matrix method, the author sheds light on the profound problems of many-valuedness criteria and its classical characterizations. The book also includes information concerning the main systems of many-valued logic, related axiomatic constructions, and conceptions inspired by many-valuedness. With its selective bibliography and many useful historical references, this book provides logicians, computer scientists, philosophers, and mathematicians with...

Complex Hyperbolic Geometry
ISBN: 9780198537939 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Complex hyperbolic geometry is a particularly rich field, drawing on Riemannian geometry, complex analysis, symplectic and contact geometry, Lie group theory, and harmonic analysis. The boundary in complex hyperbolic spaces, known as spherical CR or Heisenberg geometry, reflects this richness. However, while there are a number of books on analysis in such spaces, this book is the first to focus on the geometry, both for complex hyperbolic space and its boundary. Motivated by applications of the theory to geometric structures, moduli spaces and discrete groups, it is designed to provide an...

Model Theory
ISBN: 9780198538516 / Angielski / Twarda / 1999 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Formal logic, free from the ambiguities of natural languages, is especially suited for use in computing. In turn, model theory, which is concerned with the relationship between mathematical structures and logic, now has a wide range of applications in areas such as computing, philosophy, and linguistics. Model theory's power comes from its usefulness in defining new structures and in classifying existing ones by establishing links between them. This book, suitable for both mathematicians and students from outside the field, provides a clear and readable introduction to the subject. It...
