  • Structural Stability And Morphogenesis

    by Rene Thom ...
    First Published in 2018. It is now some fifteen years since Structural Stability and Morphogenesis was first published in the French edition. The purely mathematical theory of singularities of smooth maps has developed tremendously in that time, however, the main interest of this book lies not in its mathematics, but in the methodological perspective opened up by Catastrophe Theory models. ...

  • The Theory of Hardy's Z-Function

    Series Book 196 - Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics
    Hardy's Z-function, related to the Riemann zeta-function ζ(s), was originally utilised by G. H. Hardy to show that ζ(s) has infinitely many zeros of the form ½+it. It is now amongst the most important functions of analytic number theory, and the Riemann hypothesis, that all complex zeros lie on the line ½+it, is perhaps one of the best known and most important open problems in mathematics. Today ... Read more
