  • Logic Colloquium '87

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 129
    • H.-D. Ebbinghaus + 4 more
    • English
    Fourteen papers presented at the 1987 European Summer Meeting of the Association for Symbolic Logic are collected in this volume.The main areas covered by the conference were Logic, Set Theory, Recursion Theory, Model Theory, Logic for Computer Science and Semantics of Natural Languages.

  • Introduction to Holomorphy

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 106
    • J.A. Barroso
    • English
    This book presents a set of basic properties of holomorphic mappings between complex normed spaces and between complex locally convex spaces. These properties have already achieved an almost definitive form and should be known to all those interested in the study of infinite dimensional Holomorphy and its applications.The author also makes ``incursions'' into the study of the topological properties of the spaces of holomorphic mappings between spaces of infinite dimension. An attempt is then made to show some of the several topologies that can naturally be considered in these spaces.Infinite dimensional Holomorphy appears as a theory rich in fascinating problems and rich in applications to other branches of Mathematics and Mathematical Physics.

  • Differential Equations

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 92
    • I.W. Knowles + 1 more
    • English
    This volume forms a record of the lectures given at this International Conference. Under the general heading of the equations of mathematical physics, contributions are included on a broad range of topics in the theory and applications of ordinary and partial differential equations, including both linear and non-linear equations. The topics cover a wide variety of methods (spectral, theoretical, variational, topological, semi-group), and a equally wide variety of equations including the Laplace equation, Navier-Stokes equations, Boltzmann's equation, reaction-diffusion equations, Schroedinger equations and certain non-linear wave equations. A number of papers are devoted to multi-particle scattering theory, and to inverse theory. In addition, many of the plenary lectures contain a significant amount of survey material on a wide variety of these topics.

  • Mathematical and Conceptual Foundations of 20th-Century Physics

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 100
    • G.G. Emch
    • English
    This book is primarily intended for Mathematicians, but students in the physical sciences will find here information not usually available in physics texts.The main aim of this book is to provide a unified mathematical account of the conceptual foundations of 20th-Century Physics, in a form suitable for a one-year survey course in Mathematics or Mathematical Physics. Emphasis is laid on the interlocked historical development of mathematical and physical ideas.

  • Boundary Value Problems in Queueing System Analysis

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 79
    • J.W. Cohen + 1 more
    • English

  • Minimal Surfaces of Codimension One

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 91
    • U. Massari + 1 more
    • English
    This book gives a unified presentation of different mathematical tools used to solve classical problems like Plateau's problem, Bernstein's problem, Dirichlet's problem for the Minimal Surface Equation and the Capillary problem.The fundamental idea is a quite elementary geometrical definition of codimension one surfaces. The isoperimetric property of the Euclidean balls, together with the modern theory of partial differential equations are used to solve the 19th Hilbert problem. Also included is a modern mathematical treatment of capillary problems.

  • Functional Analysis: Surveys and Recent Results III

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 90
    • K.-D. Bierstedt + 1 more
    • English
    This volume contains 22 articles on topics of current interest in functional analysis, operator theory and related areas. Some of the papers have connections with complex function theory in one and several variables, probability theory and mathematical physics.Surveys of some areas of recent progress in functional analysis are given and related new results are presented. The topics covered in this volume supplement the discussion of modern functional analysis in the previous Proceedings volumes. Together with the previous volumes, the reader obtains a good impression of many aspects of present-day functional analysis and its applications. Parts of this volume can be used profitably in advanced seminars and courses in functional analysis.

  • Augmented Lagrangian Methods

    Applications to the Numerical Solution of Boundary-Value Problems
    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 15
    • M. Fortin + 1 more
    • English
    The purpose of this volume is to present the principles of the Augmented Lagrangian Method, together with numerous applications of this method to the numerical solution of boundary-value problems for partial differential equations or inequalities arising in Mathematical Physics, in the Mechanics of Continuous Media and in the Engineering Sciences.

  • Extensions of Linear-Quadratic Control, Optimization and Matrix Theory

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 133
    • English
    In this book, we study theoretical and practical aspects of computing methods for mathematical modelling of nonlinear systems. A number of computing techniques are considered, such as methods of operator approximation with any given accuracy; operator interpolation techniques including a non-Lagrange interpolation; methods of system representation subject to constraints associated with concepts of causality, memory and stationarity; methods of system representation with an accuracy that is the best within a given class of models; methods of covariance matrix estimation;methods for low-rank matrix approximations; hybrid methods based on a combination of iterative procedures and best operator approximation; andmethods for information compression and filtering under condition that a filter model should satisfy restrictions associated with causality and different types of memory.As a result, the book represents a blend of new methods in general computational analysis,and specific, but also generic, techniques for study of systems theory ant its particularbranches, such as optimal filtering and information compression.

  • Summability Through Functional Analysis

    • 1st Edition
    • Volume 85
    • A. Wilansky
    • English
    Summability is an extremely fruitful area for the application of functional analysis; this volume could be used as a source for such applications. Those parts of summability which only have ``hard'' (classical) proofs are omitted; the theorems given all have ``soft'' (functional analytic) proofs.
