  • Finiteness Properties of Arithmetic Groups Acting on Twin Buildings

    by Stefan Witzel ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Providing an accessible approach to a special case of the Rank Theorem, the present text considers the exact finiteness properties of S-arithmetic subgroups of split reductive groups in positive characteristic when S contains only two places. While the proof of the general Rank Theorem uses an involved reduction theory due to Harder, by imposing the restrictions that the group is split and that S ... Read more

  • Crystal Bases: Representations And Combinatorics

    by Daniel Bump, Anne Schilling ...
    This unique book provides the first introduction to crystal base theory from the combinatorial point of view. Crystal base theory was developed by Kashiwara and Lusztig from the perspective of quantum groups. Its power comes from the fact that it addresses many questions in representation theory and mathematical physics by combinatorial means. This book approaches the subject directly from ... 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

The faculty to think and act in terms of overarching moral values is as much a defining hallmark of our species as is our intelligence, so homo moralis is no less an appropriate term to describe ...
