Additive combinatorics is a relatively recent term coined to comprehend the developments of the more classical additive number theory, mainly focussed on problems related to the addition of integers. Some classical problems like the Waring problem on the sum of k-th powers or the Goldbach conjecture are genuine examples of the original questions addressed in the area. One of the features of contemporary additive combinatorics is the interplay of...

The monograph provides the first full discussion of flag-transitive Steiner designs. This is a central part of the study of highly symmetric combinatorial configurations at the interface of several mathematical disciplines, like finite or incidence geometry, group theory, combinatorics, coding theory, and cryptography. In a sufficiently self-contained and unified manner the classification of all flag-transitive Steiner designs is presented. This...

This volume offers researchers the opportunity to catch up with important developments in the field of numerical analysis and scientific computing and to get in touch with state-of-the-art numerical techniques. The book has three parts. The first one is devoted to the use of wavelets to derive some new approaches in the numerical solution of PDEs, showing in particular how the possibility of writing equivalent norms for the scale of Besov...

This book describes the evolution of several socio-biological systems using mathematical kinetic theory. Specifically, it deals with modeling and simulations of biological systems - comprised of large populations of interacting cells - whose dynamics follow the rules of mechanics as well as rules governed by their own ability to organize movement and biological functions. The authors propose a new biological model for the analysis of competition...

Following the death of Franco in 1975 Spain's long cultural isolation came to an end. The country has since opened itself up to foreign influences and particularly in architecture there has been a great revival with famous names such as Alejandro de la Sota, Oriol Bohigas and Rafael Moneo emerging. In the meantime a new generation of architects has grown up and is beginning to gain recognition. In this publication 14 of the most significant...

The present book deals with canonical factorization of matrix and operator functions that appear in state space form or that can be transformed into such a form. A unified geometric approach is used. The main results are all expressed explicitly in terms of matrices or operators, which are parameters of the state space representation. The applications concern different classes of convolution equations. The analysis of canonical factorization for...

To this reviewer’s knowledge, this is the first book accessible to the upper division undergraduate or beginning graduate student that surveys linear programming from the Simplex Method…via the Ellipsoid algorithm to Karmarkar’s algorithm. Moreover, its point of view is algorithmic and thus it provides both a history and a case history of work in complexity theory. The presentation is admirable; Karloff's style is informal (even...

This book presents classical inequalities and specific inequalities which are particularly useful for attacking and solving optimization problems. Most of the examples, exercises and problems that appear in the book originate from Mathematical Olympiad contests around the world. The material is divided into four chapters. In Chapter 1 algebraic inequalities are presented, starting with the basic ones and ending with more sophisticated techniques;...

Tropical geometry is algebraic geometry over the semifield of tropical numbers, i.e., the real numbers and negative infinity enhanced with the (max,+)-arithmetics. Geometrically, tropical varieties are much simpler than their classical counterparts. Yet they carry information about complex and real varieties. These notes present an introduction to tropical geometry and contain some applications of this rapidly developing and attractive...

Floating-point arithmetic is by far the most widely used way of implementing real-number arithmetic on modern computers. Although the basic principles of floating-point arithmetic can be explained in a short amount of time, making such an arithmetic reliable and portable, yet fast, is a very difficult task. From the 1960s to the early 1980s, many different arithmetics were developed, but their implementation varied widely from one machine to...

A paean to twentieth century analysis, this modern text has several important themes and key features which set it apart from others on the subject. A major thread throughout is the unifying influence of the concept of absolute continuity on differentiation and integration. This leads to fundamental modern results such as the Dieudonne-Grothendieck theorem and other intricate developments dealing with weak convergence of measures. Key features...

In the last three decades, advances in methods for investigating polynomial ideals and their varieties have provided new possibilities for approaching two long-standing problems in the theory of differential equations: the Poincare center problem and the cyclicity problem (the problem of bifurcation of limit cycles from singular trajectories). Using a computational algebra approach, this work addresses the center and cyclicity problems as...

Architect Daniel Libeskind, known for his dynamic, fractured compositions, is also recognized for introducing a new critical discourse to architecture. In an enormous variety of projects around the world - major cultural institutions, convention centers, universities, hotels, commercial centers, and residential work - he has manifested his commitment to expanding the horizons of architecture and urbanism. Counterpoint: Daniel Libeskind is the...

Zbliża się koniec roku, a wraz z nim czas poszukiwań nowego kalendarza. Wybór jest trudny, gdyż na rynku mamy wiele ciekawych i kolorowych publikacji. Wśród tych masowych produktów są jednak prawdziwe perełki - kalendarze, które ukazują się niezmiennie od wielu lat.
W czasie, gdy laicki styl życia zyskuje coraz więcej zwolenników, Marek Lipski swoją książką staje w kontrze do panujących trendów. "Dlaczego nie jestem ateistą" to pozycja, w której autor odważnie i wprost mówi o swojej wierze w Boga i powodach, które skłoniły go przyjęcia takiego światopoglądu. Książka pojawi się w księgarniach 24 lutego.
