  • Linearised Dam-break Problem, The

    by David J Needham, S Mcgovern, John Andrew Leach ...
    Series Book 8 - Series On Analysis, Applications And Computation
    The monograph addresses a canonical problem in linear water wave theory, through the development-detailed, asymptotic analysis of contour integrals in the complex plane. It is anticipated that the methodology developed in the monograph will have applications to many associated linear wave evolution problems, to which the reader may adapt the approach developed in the monograph. The approach ... Read more

  • The Calculus Story

    A Mathematical Adventure

    by David Acheson ...
    Calculus is the key to much of modern science and engineering. It is the mathematical method for the analysis of things that change, and since in the natural world we are surrounded by change, the development of calculus was a huge breakthrough in the history of mathematics. But it is also something of a mathematical adventure, largely because of the way infinity enters at virtually every twist ... Read more

  • Symmetry: A Very Short Introduction

    A Very Short Introduction

    by Ian Stewart ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    In the 1800s mathematicians introduced a formal theory of symmetry: group theory. Now a branch of abstract algebra, this subject first arose in the theory of equations. Symmetry is an immensely important concept in mathematics and throughout the sciences, and its applications range across the entire subject. Symmetry governs the structure of crystals, innumerable types of pattern formation, how ... Read more

  • Geometry from a Differentiable Viewpoint

    by John McCleary ...
    The development of geometry from Euclid to Euler to Lobachevsky, Bolyai, Gauss and Riemann is a story that is often broken into parts – axiomatic geometry, non-Euclidean geometry and differential geometry. This poses a problem for undergraduates: Which part is geometry? What is the big picture to which these parts belong? In this introduction to differential geometry, the parts are united with all ...

  • Geometry

    A Very Short Introduction

    by Maciej Dunajski ...
    Series series Very Short Introductions
    The study of geometry is at least 2500 years old, and it is within this field that the concept of mathematical proof - deductive reasoning from a set of axioms - first arose. To this day geometry remains a very active area of research in mathematics. This Very Short Introduction covers the areas of mathematics falling under geometry, starting with topics such as Euclidean and non-Euclidean ... Read more
