  • Partial Differential Equations and Applications

    A Bridge for Students and Researchers in Applied Sciences
    • 1st Edition
    • Hong-Ming Yin
    • English
    Partial Differential Equations and Applications: A Bridge for Students and Researchers in Applied Sciences offers a unique approach to this key subject by connecting mathematical principles to the latest research advances in select topics. Beginning with very elementary PDEs, such as classical heat equations, wave equations and Laplace equations, the book focuses on concrete examples. It gives students basic skills and techniques to find explicit solutions for partial differential equations. As it progresses, the book covers more advanced topics such as the maximum principle and applications, Green’s representation, Schauder’s theory, finite-time blowup, and shock waves. By exploring these topics, students gain the necessary tools to deal with research topics in their own fields, whether proceeding in math or engineering areas.

  • Automata Theory and Formal Languages

    • 1st Edition
    • Pallavi Vijay Chavan + 1 more
    • English
    Automata Theory and Formal Languages presents the difficult concepts of automata theory in a straightforward manner, including discussions on diverse concepts and tools that play major roles in developing computing machines, algorithms and code. Automata theory includes numerous concepts such as finite automata, regular grammar, formal languages, context free and context sensitive grammar, push down automata, Turing machine, and decidability, which constitute the backbone of computing machines. This book enables readers to gain sufficient knowledge and experience to construct and solve complex machines. Each chapter begins with key concepts followed by a number of important examples that demonstrate the solution. The book explains concepts and simultaneously helps readers develop an understanding of their application with real-world examples, including application of Context Free Grammars in programming languages and Artificial Intelligence, and cellular automata in biomedical problems.

  • Spectral Properties of Certain Operators on a Free Hilbert Space and the Semicircular Law

    • 1st Edition
    • Ilwoo Cho + 1 more
    • English
    In Spectral Properties of Certain Operators on a Free Hilbert Space and the Semicircular Law, the authors consider the so-called free Hilbert spaces, which are the Hilbert spaces induced by the usual l2 Hilbert spaces and operators acting on them. The construction of these operators itself is interesting and provides new types of Hilbert-space operators. Also, by considering spectral-theoretic properties of these operators, the authors illustrate how “free-Hilbert-space” Operator Theory is different from the classical Operator Theory. More interestingly, the authors demonstrate how such operators affect the semicircular law induced by the ONB-vectors of a fixed free Hilbert space. Different from the usual approaches, this book shows how “inside” actions of operator algebra deform the free-probabilistic information—in particular, the semicircular law.

  • Cognitive Intelligence with Neutrosophic Statistics in Bioinformatics

    • 1st Edition
    • Florentin Smarandache + 1 more
    • English
    Cognitive Intelligence with Neutrosophic Statistics in Bioinformatics investigates and presents the many applications that have arisen in the last ten years using neutrosophic statistics in bioinformatics, medicine, agriculture and cognitive science. This book will be very useful to the scientific community, appealing to audiences interested in fuzzy, vague concepts from which uncertain data are collected, including academic researchers, practicing engineers and graduate students. Neutrosophic statistics is a generalization of classical statistics. In classical statistics, the data is known, formed by crisp numbers. In comparison, data in neutrosophic statistics has some indeterminacy. This data may be ambiguous, vague, imprecise, incomplete, and even unknown. Neutrosophic statistics refers to a set of data, such that the data or a part of it are indeterminate in some degree, and to methods used to analyze the data.
