  • Fermat Days 85: Mathematics for Optimization

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 129
    • J.-B. Hiriart-Urruty
    • English
    Optimization, as examined here, ranges from differential equations to problems arising in Mechanics and Statistics. The main topics covered are: calculations of variations and nonlinear elasticity, optimal control, analysis and optimization in problems dealing with nondifferentiable data, duality techniques, algorithms in mathematical programming and optimal control.
  • Large Scale Eigenvalue Problems

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 127
    • J. Cullum + 1 more
    • English
    Results of research into large scale eigenvalue problems are presented in this volume. The papers fall into four principal categories:novel algorithms for solving large eigenvalue problems, novel computer architectures, computationally-rele... theoretical analyses, and problems where large scale eigenelement computations have provided new insight.

  • Transform Analysis of Generalized Functions

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 119
    • O.P. Misra + 1 more
    • English
    Transform Analysis of Generalized Functions concentrates on finite parts of integrals, generalized functions and distributions. It gives a unified treatment of the distributional setting with transform analysis, i.e. Fourier, Laplace, Stieltjes, Mellin, Hankel and Bessel Series.Included are accounts of applications of the theory of integral transforms in a distributional setting to the solution of problems arising in mathematical physics. Information on distributional solutions of differential, partial differential equations and integral equations is conveniently collected here.The volume will serve as introductory and reference material for those interested in analysis, applications, physics and engineering.
  • Analysis on Real and Complex Manifolds

    • 2nd Edition
    • Volume 35
    • R. Narasimhan
    • English
    Chapter 1 presents theorems on differentiable functions often used in differential topology, such as the implicit function theorem, Sard's theorem and Whitney's approximation theorem. The next chapter is an introduction to real and complex manifolds. It contains an exposition of the theorem of Frobenius, the lemmata of Poincaré and Grothendieck with applications of Grothendieck's lemma to complex analysis, the imbedding theorem of Whitney and Thom's transversality theorem. Chapter 3 includes characterizations of linear differentiable operators, due to Peetre and Hormander. The inequalities of Garding and of Friedrichs on elliptic operators are proved and are used to prove the regularity of weak solutions of elliptic equations. The chapter ends with the approximation theorem of Malgrange-Lax and its application to the proof of the Runge theorem on open Riemann surfaces due to Behnke and Stein.
  • Modern General Topology

    • 3rd Edition
    • Volume 33
    • J.-I. Nagata
    • English
    This classic work has been fundamentally revised to take account of recent developments in general topology. The first three chapters remain unchanged except for numerous minor corrections and additional exercises, but chapters IV-VII and the new chapter VIII cover the rapid changes that have occurred since 1968 when the first edition appeared. The reader will find many new topics in chapters IV-VIII, e.g. theory of Wallmann-Shanin's compactification, realcompact space, various generalizations of paracompactness, generalized metric spaces, Dugundji type extension theory, linearly ordered topological space, theory of cardinal functions, dyadic space, etc., that were, in the author's opinion, mostly special or isolated topics some twenty years ago but now settle down into the mainstream of general topology.
  • Inferences in Text Processing

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 29
    • H. Strohl-Goebel + 1 more
    • English
    This volume critically evaluates the present state of research in the domain of inferences in text processing and indicates new areas of research.The book is structured around the following theoretical aspects: - The representational aspect is concerned with the cognitive structure produced by the processed text, e.g. the social, spatial, and motor characteristics of world knowledge. - The procedural aspect investigates the time relationships on forming inferences, e.g. the point of time at which referential relations are constructed. - The contextual aspect reflects the dependence of inferences on the communicative embedding of text processing, e.g. on factors of modality and instruction.
  • Complex Analysis in Banach Spaces

    Holomorphic Functions and Domains of Holomorphy in Finite and Infinite Dimensions
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 120
    • J. Mujica
    • English
    Problems arising from the study of holomorphic continuation and holomorphic approximation have been central in the development of complex analysis in finitely many variables, and constitute one of the most promising lines of research in infinite dimensional complex analysis. This book presents a unified view of these topics in both finite and infinite dimensions.
