  • 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 ...

  • The Geometry of Celestial Mechanics

    by Hansjörg Geiges ...
    Series Book 83 - London Mathematical Society Student Texts
    Celestial mechanics is the branch of mathematical astronomy devoted to studying the motions of celestial bodies subject to the Newtonian law of gravitation. This mathematical introductory textbook reveals that even the most basic question in celestial mechanics, the Kepler problem, leads to a cornucopia of geometric concepts: conformal and projective transformations, spherical and hyperbolic ...

  • Differential Geometry of Singular Spaces and Reduction of Symmetry

    by J. Śniatycki ...
    Series Book 23 - New Mathematical Monographs
    In this book the author illustrates the power of the theory of subcartesian differential spaces for investigating spaces with singularities. Part I gives a detailed and comprehensive presentation of the theory of differential spaces, including integration of distributions on subcartesian spaces and the structure of stratified spaces. Part II presents an effective approach to the reduction of ... Read more

  • Morse Theory and Floer Homology

    by Michèle Audin, Mihai Damian ...
    Translated by Reinie Erné ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book is an introduction to modern methods of symplectic topology. It is devoted to explaining the solution of an important problem originating from classical mechanics: the 'Arnold conjecture', which asserts that the number of 1-periodic trajectories of a non-degenerate Hamiltonian system is bounded below by the dimension of the homology of the underlying manifold.The first part is a thorough ...

  • Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations: Volume 1

    Edited by Fred Diamond, Payman L. Kassaei, Minhyong Kim ...
    Series Book 414 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    Automorphic forms and Galois representations have played a central role in the development of modern number theory, with the former coming to prominence via the celebrated Langlands program and Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. This two-volume collection arose from the 94th LMS-EPSRC Durham Symposium on 'Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations' in July 2011, the aim of which was to ... Read more

  • The Statistical Mechanics of Interacting Walks, Polygons, Animals and Vesicles

    by E.J. Janse van Rensburg ...
    Series series Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its Applications
    The self-avoiding walk is a classical model in statistical mechanics, probability theory and mathematical physics. It is also a simple model of polymer entropy which is useful in modelling phase behaviour in polymers. This monograph provides an authoritative examination of interacting self-avoiding walks, presenting aspects of the thermodynamic limit, phase behaviour, scaling and critical ... Read more
