  • Elementary Symplectic Topology and Mechanics

    by Franco Cardin ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This is a short tract on the essentials of differential and symplectic geometry together with a basic introduction to several applications of this rich framework: analytical mechanics, the calculus of variations, conjugate points & Morse index, and other physical topics. A central feature is the systematic utilization of Lagrangian submanifolds and their Maslov-Hörmander generating functions. ... Read more

  • Elliptic Functions - An Elementary Text-Book for Students of Mathematics

    by Arthur Baker ...
    The first step taken in the theory of Elliptic Functions was the determination of a relation between the amplitudes of three functions of either order, such that there should exist an algebraic relation between the three functions themselves of which these were the amplitudes. It is one of the most remarkable discoveries which science owes to Euler.In 1761 he gave to the world the complete ... Read more

  • Geometric Control Theory and Sub-Riemannian Geometry

    Edited by Gianna Stefani, Ugo Boscain, Jean-Paul Gauthier, Andrey Sarychev, Mario Sigalotti ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Honoring Andrei Agrachev's 60th birthday, this volume presents recent advances in the interaction between Geometric Control Theory and sub-Riemannian geometry. On the one hand, Geometric Control Theory used the differential geometric and Lie algebraic language for studying controllability, motion planning, stabilizability and optimality for control systems. The geometric approach turned out to be ... Read more

  • Introduction to Global Variational Geometry

    by Demeter Krupka ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The book is devoted to recent research in the global variational theory on smooth manifolds. Its main objective is an extension of the classical variational calculus on Euclidean spaces to (topologically nontrivial) finite-dimensional smooth manifolds; to this purpose the methods of global analysis of differential forms are used. Emphasis is placed on the foundations of the theory of variational ... Read more

  • Hypernumbers and Extrafunctions

    Extending the Classical Calculus

    by Mark Burgin ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    “Hypernumbers and Extrafunctions” presents a rigorous mathematical approach to operate with infinite values. First, concepts of real and complex numbers are expanded to include a new universe of numbers called hypernumbers which includes infinite quantities. This brief extends classical calculus based on real functions by introducing extrafunctions, which generalize not only the concept of a ... Read more

  • Developments of Harmonic Maps, Wave Maps and Yang-Mills Fields into Biharmonic Maps, Biwave Maps and Bi-Yang-Mills Fields

    by Yuan-Jen Chiang ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds were first established by James Eells and Joseph H. Sampson in 1964. Wave maps are harmonic maps on Minkowski spaces and have been studied since the 1990s. Yang-Mills fields, the critical points of Yang-Mills functionals of connections whose curvature tensors are harmonic, were explored by a few physicists in the 1950s, and biharmonic maps (generalizing ...

  • Analysis and Geometry of Markov Diffusion Operators

    by Ivan Gentil, Dominique Bakry, Michel Ledoux ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The present volume is an extensive monograph on the analytic and geometric aspects of Markov diffusion operators. It focuses on the geometric curvature properties of the underlying structure in order to study convergence to equilibrium, spectral bounds, functional inequalities such as Poincaré, Sobolev or logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, and various bounds on solutions of evolution equations. At ... Read more

  • Geometry in a Fréchet Context

    A Projective Limit Approach

    by C. T. J. Dodson, George Galanis, Efstathios Vassiliou ...
    Series Book 428 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    Many geometrical features of manifolds and fibre bundles modelled on Fréchet spaces either cannot be defined or are difficult to handle directly. This is due to the inherent deficiencies of Fréchet spaces; for example, the lack of a general solvability theory for differential equations, the non-existence of a reasonable Lie group structure on the general linear group of a Fréchet space, and the ...
