  • Cylindric Algebras

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 115
    • Bozzano G Luisa
    • English
    Volume II completes the description of the main aspects of the theory, covering representation questions, model theory and decision problems for them, translations from logic to algebra and vice-versa, and relationships with other algebraic versions of logic.
  • Neuropsychological Studies of Apraxia and Related Disorders

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 23
    • E.A. Roy
    • English
    Apraxia is a term used to denote a disorder in the performance of limb, verbal and oral non-verbal gestures, with often preserved ability to perform these same gestures outside the clinical setting in the appropriate situation or environment. Over the past century and particularly in the past four decades, a great deal of research has focused on understanding the nature of this complex disorder.This book is a review of current approaches to the study of apraxia and related action sequencing disorders as well as an examination of the mechanisms thought to underly these disorders. Neuropathological processes associated with apraxia are evaluated and principles of motor control, handedness and bimanual coordination are considered as they relate to the study of apractic disorders.
  • Cylindric Algebras

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume I
    • Bozzano G Luisa
    • English
    Volume I provides a detailed analysis of cylindric algebras, starting with a formulation of their axioms and a development of their elementary properties, and proceeding to a deeper study of their interrelationships by means of general algebraic notions such as subalgebras, homomorphisms, direct products, free algebras, reducts and relativized algebras.
  • Laser Light Dynamics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume II
    • Bozzano G Luisa
    • English
    This volume deals with laser physics emphasizing laser theory from a physical point of view. It takes into account most recent developments focussing on the dynamics. Proceeding from simple to more difficult questions, the book treats, among other topics: typical experimental laser systems, intensities of laser light in single and multimode lasers, mode competition, hole-burning, Q-switched lasers, relaxation-oscillati... frequency shifts, population pulsations, mode-locking, ultrashort pulses, self-pulsing, laser light chaos, instability hierarchies, laser gyro, optical bistability, optical transistor, two-photon laser, laser line width, Hanbury-Brown-Twiss experiment, intensity correlations, photon statistics, quantum classical correspondence, laser phase-transition analogy, the laser as a synergetic system.
  • Differing Perspectives in Motor Learning, Memory, and Control

    • English
  • Singularities & Dynamical Systems

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 103
    • S.N. Pnevmatikos
    • English
    This volume is an account of the lectures delivered at the international Conference ``Singularities and Dynamical Systems-83''. The main purpose of the Conference was to create conditions of scientific contact between mathematicians and physicists who have singularities and dynamical systems as common interests.
  • Trends in the Theory and Practice of Non-Linear Analysis

    Proceedings of the VIth International Conference on Trends in the Theory and Practice of Non-Linear Analysis held at the University of Texas at Arlington, June 18-22, 1984
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 110
    • English
  • Algorithms in Combinatorial Design Theory

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 26
    • C.J. Colbourn + 1 more
    • English
    The scope of the volume includes all algorithmic and computational aspects of research on combinatorial designs. Algorithmic aspects include generation, isomorphism and analysis techniques - both heuristic methods used in practice, and the computational complexity of these operations. The scope within design theory includes all aspects of block designs, Latin squares and their variants, pairwise balanced designs and projective planes and related geometries.
  • Graphs, Groups and Surfaces

    • 2nd Edition
    • Volume 8
    • A.T. White
    • English
    The field of topological graph theory has expanded greatly in the ten years since the first edition of this book appeared. The original nine chapters of this classic work have therefore been revised and updated. Six new chapters have been added, dealing with: voltage graphs, non-orientable imbeddings, block designs associated with graph imbeddings, hypergraph imbeddings, map automorphism groups and change ringing.Thirty-two new problems have been added to this new edition, so that there are now 181 in all; 22 of these have been designated as ``difficult'' and 9 as ``unsolved''. Three of the four unsolved problems from the first edition have been solved in the ten years between editions; they are now marked as ``difficult''.
