Proceedings of the 8th International Conference of Topological Algebras and Their Applications (ICTAA-2014), held on May 26-30, 2014 in Playa de Villas de Mar Beach, dedicated to the memory of Anastasios Mallios (Athens, Greece). This series of conferences started in 1999 in Tartu, Estonia and were subsequently held in Rabat, Moroco (2000), Oulu, Finland (2001), Oaxaca, Mexico (2002), Bedlewo, Poland (2003), Athens, Greece (2005) and Tartu, Estonia (2008 and 2013). The topics of the conference include all areas of mathematics, connected with (preferably general) topological algebras and their applications, including all kinds of topological-algebraic structures as topological linear spaces, ...
book and to the publisher NOORDHOFF who made possible the appearance of the second edition and enabled the author to introduce the above-mentioned modifi cations and additions. Moscow M. A. NAIMARK August 1963 FOREWORD TO THE SECOND SOVIET EDITION In this second edition the initial text has been worked over again and improved, certain portions have been completely rewritten; in particular, Chapter VIII has been rewritten in a more accessible form. The changes and extensions made by the author in the Japanese, German, first and second (= first revised) American, and also in the Romanian (lithographed) editions, were hereby taken into account. Appendices II and III, which are necessary for und...
This is the first volume of a two volume set that provides a modern account of basic Banach algebra theory including all known results on general Banach *-algebras. This account emphasizes the role of *-algebraic structure and explores the algebraic results that underlie the theory of Banach algebras and *-algebras. The first volume, which contains previously unpublished results, is an independent, self-contained reference on Banach algebra theory. Each topic is treated in the maximum interesting generality within the framework of some class of complex algebras rather than topological algebras. Proofs are presented in complete detail at a level accessible to graduate students. The book contains a wealth of historical comments, background material, examples, particularly in noncommutative harmonic analysis, and an extensive bibliography. Volume II is forthcoming.
Mathemagical Buffet offers a delectable feast to everyone with a basic facility in secondary-school mathematics. Every topic reflects the incomparable excitement, beauty, and joy of mathematics; they present a wealth of ingenious insights and marvelous ideas at the fundamental level. The chapters are independent and can be read in any order. Everyone who enjoys elementary mathematics will truly delight in the following gems: . Pythagorean Triples via Geometry . New proofs of Generalizations of the Theorems of Ptolemy and Simson . Mind Reading Tricks, Ladder Lotteries, Mazes, Lattice Points, Round Robin Competitions, An Elementary Fixed Point Theorems and More . Simple proofs of the lovely Theorems of Pick and of Jung . The Constructibility of a Regular 17-gon . Open Problems on Egyptian Fractions and on Primes Moreover, the reader is gently encouraged to participate actively by responding to a line of questions that are thoughtfully sprinkled throughout the developments of the expositions.
This book is a continuation of vol. I (Grundlehren vol. 115, also available in softcover), and contains a detailed treatment of some important parts of harmonic analysis on compact and locally compact abelian groups. From the reviews: "This work aims at giving a monographic presentation of abstract harmonic analysis, far more complete and comprehensive than any book already existing on the subject...in connection with every problem treated the book offers a many-sided outlook and leads up to most modern developments. Carefull attention is also given to the history of the subject, and there is an extensive bibliography...the reviewer believes that for many years to come this will remain the classical presentation of abstract harmonic analysis."
