  • Blow-up Theory for Elliptic PDEs in Riemannian Geometry

    by Olivier Druet, Emmanuel Hebey, Frédéric Robert ...
    Series Book 45 - Mathematical Notes
    Elliptic equations of critical Sobolev growth have been the target of investigation for decades because they have proved to be of great importance in analysis, geometry, and physics. The equations studied here are of the well-known Yamabe type. They involve Schrödinger operators on the left hand side and a critical nonlinearity on the right hand side.A significant development in the study of such ... Read more

  • A Brief History of Infinity

    The Quest to Think the Unthinkable

    by Brian Clegg ...
    Series series Brief Histories
    'Space is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the street to the chemist, but that's just peanuts to space.' Douglas Adams, Hitch-hiker's Guide to the GalaxyWe human beings have trouble with infinity - yet infinity is a surprisingly human subject. Philosophers and mathematicians have gone mad contemplating ... Read more

  • The Golden Ticket

    P, NP, and the Search for the Impossible

    by Lance Fortnow ...
    The P-NP problem is the most important open problem in computer science, if not all of mathematics. The Golden Ticket provides a nontechnical introduction to P-NP, its rich history, and its algorithmic implications for everything we do with computers and beyond. In this informative and entertaining book, Lance Fortnow traces how the problem arose during the Cold War on both sides of the Iron ... Read more

  • How Nature Works

    the science of self-organized criticality

    by Per Bak ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    and acknowledgments Self-organized criticality is a new way of viewing nature. The basic picture is one where nature is perpetually out of balance, but organized in a poised state-the critical state-where anything can happen within well-defined statistical laws. The aim of the science of self-organized criticality is to yield insight into the fundamental question of why nature is complex, not ... Read more

  • Introduction to Calculus and Analysis II/1

    by Richard Courant, Fritz John ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    From the reviews: "These books (Introduction to Calculus and Analysis Vol. I/II) are very well written. The mathematics are rigorous but the many examples that are given and the applications that are treated make the books extremely readable and the arguments easy to understand. These books are ideally suited for an undergraduate calculus course. Each chapter is followed by a number of interesting ... Read more

  • Real Analysis via Sequences and Series

    by Charles H.C. Little, Kee L. Teo, Bruce van Brunt ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This text gives a rigorous treatment of the foundations of calculus. In contrast to more traditional approaches, infinite sequences and series are placed at the forefront. The approach taken has not only the merit of simplicity, but students are well placed to understand and appreciate more sophisticated concepts in advanced mathematics. The authors mitigate potential difficulties in mastering the ... Read more

  • A Tale of Two Fractals

    by A.A. Kirillov ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Since Benoit Mandelbrot's pioneering work in the late 1970s, scores of research articles and books have been published on the topic of fractals. Despite the volume of literature in the field, the general level of theoretical understanding has remained low; most work is aimed either at too mainstream an audience to achieve any depth or at too specialized a community to achieve widespread use. ...

  • Natural Element Method for the Simulation of Structures and Processes

    by Francisco Chinesta, Serge Cescotto, Elias Cueto, Philippe Lorong ...
    Computational mechanics is the discipline concerned with the use of computational methods to study phenomena governed by the principles of mechanics. Before the emergence of computational science (also called scientific computing) as a "third way" besides theoretical and experimental sciences, computational mechanics was widely considered to be a sub-discipline of applied mechanics. It is now ... Read more

  • On the Teaching of Linear Algebra

    Edited by J.-L. Dorier ...
    Series series Education (R0)
    To a large extent, it lies, no doubt, in what is presented in this work under the title of ‘meta lever‘, a method which it is certainly interesting to develop and further refine. There exists in mathematics courses a strange prudery which forbids one to ask questions such as, ‹‹ Why are we doing this? », ‹‹ At what is the objective aimed? », whereas it is usually easy to reply to such questions, ...
