Mathematical theory of computation

Along with the traditional material concerning linear programming (the simplex method, the theory of duality, the dual simplex method), In-Depth Analysis of Linear Programming contains new results of research carried out by the authors.

constitutive of reference in laboratory sciences as cultural sign systems and their manipulation and superposition, collectively shared classifications and associated conceptual frameworks,* and various fonns of collective action and social institutions.

It has been stated in psychology that human brain arranges information in a way that improves efficiency in performing common tasks, for example, information about our spatial environment is conveniently structured for efficient route finding.

In the last years, it was observed an increasing interest of computer scientists in the structure of biological molecules and the way how they can be manipulated in vitro in order to define theoretical models of computation based on genetic engineering tools.

Our ontology as well as our grammar are, as Quine affirms, ineliminable parts of our conceptual contribution to our theory of the world.

There is no branch of mathematics, however abstract, which may not some day be applied to phenomena of the real world.

In Chapter 6, we describe the concept of braid equivalence from the topological point of view.

This monograph is a continuation of several themes presented in my previous books [146, 149].

This book is mainly devoted to some computational and algorithmic problems in finite fields such as, for example, polynomial factorization, finding irreducible and primitive polynomials, the distribution of these primitive polynomials and of primitive points on elliptic curves, constructing bases of various types and new applications of finite fields to other areas of mathematics.

Cellular automata can be viewed both as computational models and modelling systems of real processes.

The last decade has seen two parallel developments, one in computer science, the other in mathematics, both dealing with the same kind of combinatorial structures: networks with strong symmetry properties or, in graph-theoretical language, vertex-transitive graphs, in particular their prototypical examples, Cayley graphs.

Innovative actIvItIes on the development of which Russia puts its hopes for the preservation and successful reconstruction of the former USSR applied science are based on three key factors: funding, infrastructure and management.

without a properly developed inconsistent calculus based on infinitesimals, then in- consistent claims from the history of the calculus might well simply be symptoms of confusion.

Invariant, or coordinate-free methods provide a natural framework for many geometric questions.

Today the notion of the algorithm is familiar not only to mathematicians.

In June of 1996, at the idyllic seaside resort of Guaruja, Brazil, a renowned group of researchers in space and astrophysical plasmas met to provide a forum on Advanced Topics on Astrophysical and Space Plasmas at a school consisting of some 60 students and teachers, mainly from Brazil and Argentina, but also from all the other parts of the globe.

This book is devoted to an investigation of some important problems of mod- ern filtering theory concerned with systems of 'any nature being able to per- ceive, store and process an information and apply it for control and regulation'.

The subject of this book is connected with a new direction in mathematics, which has been actively developed over the last few years, namely the field of polynomial computer algebra, which lies at the intersection point of algebra, mathematical analysis and programming.
