  • Local Cohomology

    An Algebraic Introduction with Geometric Applications

    by M. P. Brodmann, R. Y. Sharp ...
    Series Book 136 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    This second edition of a successful graduate text provides a careful and detailed algebraic introduction to Grothendieck's local cohomology theory, including in multi-graded situations, and provides many illustrations of the theory in commutative algebra and in the geometry of quasi-affine and quasi-projective varieties. Topics covered include Serre's Affineness Criterion, the Lichtenbaum ... Read more

  • The Foundations of Geometry (Illustrated)

    by David Hilbert, PH. D. ...
    The Foundations of GeometryGeometry, like arithmetic, requires for its logical development only a small number of simple, fundamental principles. These fundamental principles are called the axioms of geometry. The choice of the axioms and the investigation of their relations to one another is a problem which, since the time of Euclid, has been discussed in numerous excellent memoirs to be found in ...

  • How to Fold It

    The Mathematics of Linkages, Origami and Polyhedra

    by Joseph O’Rourke ...
    What do proteins and pop-up cards have in common? How is opening a grocery bag different from opening a gift box? How can you cut out the letters for a whole word all at once with one straight scissors cut? How many ways are there to flatten a cube? With the help of 200 colour figures, author Joseph O'Rourke explains these fascinating folding problems starting from high school algebra and geometry ... Read more

  • A Course in Mathematical Analysis: Volume 2, Metric and Topological Spaces, Functions of a Vector Variable

    by D. J. H. Garling ...
    The three volumes of A Course in Mathematical Analysis provide a full and detailed account of all those elements of real and complex analysis that an undergraduate mathematics student can expect to encounter in their first two or three years of study. Containing hundreds of exercises, examples and applications, these books will become an invaluable resource for both students and teachers. Volume 1 ... Read more

  • A First Course in Computational Algebraic Geometry

    by Wolfram Decker, Gerhard Pfister ...
    Series series AIMS Library of Mathematical Sciences
    A First Course in Computational Algebraic Geometry is designed for young students with some background in algebra who wish to perform their first experiments in computational geometry. Originating from a course taught at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences, the book gives a compact presentation of the basic theory, with particular emphasis on explicit computational examples using the ...

  • Cox Rings

    by Ivan Arzhantsev, Ulrich Derenthal, Jürgen Hausen, Antonio Laface ...
    Series Book 144 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    Cox rings are significant global invariants of algebraic varieties, naturally generalizing homogeneous coordinate rings of projective spaces. This book provides a largely self-contained introduction to Cox rings, with a particular focus on concrete aspects of the theory. Besides the rigorous presentation of the basic concepts, other central topics include the case of finitely generated Cox rings ... Read more

  • Indra's Pearls

    The Vision of Felix Klein

    by David Mumford, Caroline Series, David Wright ...
    Felix Klein, one of the great nineteenth-century geometers, discovered in mathematics an idea prefigured in Buddhist mythology: the heaven of Indra contained a net of pearls, each of which was reflected in its neighbour, so that the whole Universe was mirrored in each pearl. Klein studied infinitely repeated reflections and was led to forms with multiple coexisting symmetries. For a century, these ... Read more

    A General Introduction to Linear Algebra

    by T. W. Körner ...
    Many books in linear algebra focus purely on getting students through exams, but this text explains both the how and the why of linear algebra and enables students to begin thinking like mathematicians. The author demonstrates how different topics (geometry, abstract algebra, numerical analysis, physics) make use of vectors in different ways and how these ways are connected, preparing students for ...

  • Hyperbolic Manifolds

    An Introduction in 2 and 3 Dimensions

    by Albert Marden ...
    Over the past three decades there has been a total revolution in the classic branch of mathematics called 3-dimensional topology, namely the discovery that most solid 3-dimensional shapes are hyperbolic 3-manifolds. This book introduces and explains hyperbolic geometry and hyperbolic 3- and 2-dimensional manifolds in the first two chapters and then goes on to develop the subject. The author ... Read more

  • Reversibility in Dynamics and Group Theory

    by Anthony G. O'Farrell, Ian Short ...
    Series Book 416 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    Reversibility is a thread woven through many branches of mathematics. It arises in dynamics, in systems that admit a time-reversal symmetry, and in group theory where the reversible group elements are those that are conjugate to their inverses. However, the lack of a lingua franca for discussing reversibility means that researchers who encounter the concept may be unaware of related work in other ... Read more

  • Aperiodic Order: Volume 1, A Mathematical Invitation

    by Michael Baake, Uwe Grimm ...
    Series Book 149 - Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications
    Quasicrystals are non-periodic solids that were discovered in 1982 by Dan Shechtman, Nobel Prize Laureate in Chemistry 2011. The underlying mathematics, known as the theory of aperiodic order, is the subject of this comprehensive multi-volume series. This first volume provides a graduate-level introduction to the many facets of this relatively new area of mathematics. Special attention is given to ... Read more

  • Fourier Restriction for Hypersurfaces in Three Dimensions and Newton Polyhedra

    by Detlef Müller, Isroil A. Ikromov ...
    Series Book 194 - Annals of Mathematics Studies
    This is the first book to present a complete characterization of Stein-Tomas type Fourier restriction estimates for large classes of smooth hypersurfaces in three dimensions, including all real-analytic hypersurfaces. The range of Lebesgue spaces for which these estimates are valid is described in terms of Newton polyhedra associated to the given surface.Isroil Ikromov and Detlef Müller begin with ... Read more
