  • Random Graphs '85

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 33
    • M. Karonski + 1 more
    • English
    Covering a wide range of Random Graphs subjects, this volume examines series-parallel networks, properties of random subgraphs of the n-cube, random binary and recursive trees, random digraphs, induced subgraphs and spanning trees in random graphs as well as matchings, hamiltonian cycles and closure in such structures. Papers in this collection also illustrate various aspects of percolation theory and its applications, properties of random lattices and random walks on such graphs, random allocation schemes, pseudo-random graphs and reliability of planar networks. Several open problems that were presented during a special session at the Seminar are also included at the end of the volume.

  • Near-Rings and Near-Fields

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 137
    • G. Betsch
    • English
    Most topics in near-ring and near-field theory are treated here, along with an extensive introduction to the theory.There are two invited lectures: ``Non-Commutative Geometry, Near-Rings and Near-Fields'' which indicates the relevance of near-rings and near-fields for geometry, while ``Pseudo-Finite Near-Fields'' shows the impressive power of model theoretic methods. The remaining papers cover such topics as D.G. near-rings, radical theory, KT-near-fields, matrix near-rings, and applications to systems theory.

  • Combinatorics '86

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 37
    • M. Marchi + 2 more
    • English
    Recent developments in all aspects of combinatorial and incidence geometry are covered in this volume, including their links with the foundations of geometry, graph theory and algebraic structures, and the applications to coding theory and computer science.Topics covered include Galois geometries, blocking sets, affine and projective planes, incidence structures and their automorphism groups. Matroids, graph theory and designs are also treated, along with weak algebraic structures such as near-rings, near-fields, quasi-groups, loops, hypergroups etc., and permutation sets and groups.The vitality of combinatorics today lies in its important interactions with computer science. The problems which arise are of a varied nature and suitable techniques to deal with them have to be devised for each situation; one of the special features of combinatorics is the often sporadic nature of solutions, stemming from its links with number theory. The branches of combinatorics are many and various, and all of them are represented in the 56 papers in this volume.

  • Group and Semigroup Rings

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 126
    • G. Karpilovsky
    • English
    A broad range of topics is covered here, including commutative monoid rings, the Jacobson radical of semigroup rings, blocks of modular group algebras, nilpotency index of the radical of group algebras, the isomorphism problem for group rings, inverse semigroup algebras and the Picard group of an abelian group ring. The survey lectures provide an up-to-date account of the current state of the subject and form a comprehensive introduction for intending researchers.

    • 1st Edition
    • K. Masuda + 1 more
    • English
    The problems treated in this volume concern nonlinear partial differential equations occurring in the areas of fluid dynamics, free boundary problems, population dynamics and mathematical physics.

  • Patterns and Waves

    Qualitative Analysis of Nonlinear Differential Equations
    • 1st Edition
    • T. Nishida + 2 more
    • English
    Part I of this volume surveys the developments in the analysis of nonlinear phenomena in Japan during the past decade, while Part II consists of up-to-date original papers concerning qualitative theories and their applications.Dealt with here are nonlinear problems related to general analysis, fluid dynamics, mathematical biology and computer sciences, and their underlying mathematical structures, e.g. nonlinear waves and propagations, bifurcation phenomena, chaotic phenomena, and fractals.The volume is dedicated to Professor Masaya Yamaguti in celebration of his 60th birthday.
