Five-minute Mathematics
This collection of one hundred short essays gives readers a grand tour through contemporary and everyday mathematics. Behrends provides classics from his newspaper column in Die Welt, expands and illustrates them, and gives readers just enough information at a time to build mastery of concepts and applications. The topics range from pure mathematics to applied math, but all essays are suspenseful and fun to read. This is a very handy tool for teachers of all levels of mathematics (even elementary school children will be able to handle some of the topics), and Behrends assumes his readership has and interest but only a minimal background in mathematics so the essays are accessible but not dumbed-down.
Mathematics Everywhere
The authors are renowned mathematicians; their presentations cover a wide range of topics. From compact discs to the stock exchange, from computer tomography to traffic routing, from electronic money to climate change, they make the "math inside" understandable and enjoyable.
Mathemagics: A Magical Journey Through Advanced Mathematics - Connecting More Than 60 Magic Tricks To High-level Math
'This delightful book connects mathematical concepts in a dozen areas to magic tricks. Expositions of the mathematics precede description and analysis of the tricks. The expositions are too short for in-depth learning; the intent is to give sophomores a taste of the content and ideas of later mathematics courses. Each chapter features exercises on the mathematics, and students can have fun practicing the tricks.'Mathematics MagazineTeixeira and Park present over 60 different magic tricks while introducing students to high-level math areas. Readers will learn really interesting ideas that will better prepare them for future courses and help them finding areas they might want to study deeper. ...
Introduction to Markov Chains
Besides the investigation of general chains the book contains chapters which are concerned with eigenvalue techniques, conductance, stopping times, the strong Markov property, couplings, strong uniform times, Markov chains on arbitrary finite groups (including a crash-course in harmonic analysis), random generation and counting, Markov random fields, Gibbs fields, the Metropolis sampler, and simulated annealing. With 170 exercises.
Probability Theory
Aimed primarily at graduate students and researchers, this text is a comprehensive course in modern probability theory and its measure-theoretical foundations. It covers a wide variety of topics, many of which are not usually found in introductory textbooks. The theory is developed rigorously and in a self-contained way, with the chapters on measure theory interlaced with the probabilistic chapters in order to display the power of the abstract concepts in the world of probability theory. In addition, plenty of figures, computer simulations, biographic details of key mathematicians, and a wealth of examples support and enliven the presentation.
The Steiner Tree Problem
In recent years, algorithmic graph theory has become increasingly important as a link between discrete mathematics and theoretical computer science. This textbook introduces students of mathematics and computer science to the interrelated fields of graphs theory, algorithms and complexity.
Progress in Functional Analysis
This volume includes a collection of research articles inFunctional Analysis, celebrating the occasion of Manuel Valdivia'ssixtieth birthday. The papers included in the volume are basedon the main lectures presented during the internationalfunctional analysis meeting held in Peñíscola(Valencia, Spain) in October 1990.During his career, Valdiviahas made contributions to a wide variety of areas of FunctionalAnalysis and his work has had a profound impact. A thoroughappreciation of Valdivia's work is presented in J.Horváth's article. In honor of Valdivia's achievements, this volume presents more than twenty-five papers on topics related to his research(Banach spaces, operator ideals, tensor products, Fréchet,(DF) and (LF) spaces, distribution theory, infinite holomorphyetc.). While the majority of papers are research articles, survey articles are also included. The book covers a broad spectrum of interests in today's Functional Analysis and presents new results by leading specialists in the field.
Lattices and Codes
In the 2nd edition numerous corrections have been made. More basic material has been included to make the text even more self-contained. A new section on the automorphism group of the Leech lattice has been added. Some hints to new results have been incorporated. With several new exercises.
Local Analytic Geometry
Auf der Grundlage einer Einführung in die kommutative Algebra, algebraische Geometrie und komplexe Analysis werden zunächst Kurvensingularitäten untersucht. Daran schließen Ergebnisse an, die zum ersten Mal in einem Lehrbuch aufgenommen wurden, das Verhalten von Invarianten in Familien, Standardbasen für konvergente Potenzreihenringe, Approximationssätze, Grauerts Satz über die Existenz der versellen Deformation. Das Buch richtet sich an Studenten höherer Semester, Doktoranden und Dozenten. Es ist auf der Grundlage mehrerer Vorlesungen und Seminaren an den Universitäten in Kaiserslautern und Saarbrücken entstanden.
