Nigel Hitchin is one of the world's foremost figures in the fields of differential and algebraic geometry and their relations with mathematical physics, and he has been Savilian Professor of Geometry at Oxford since 1997.
This volume consists of 15 papers contributing to the Hayama Symposium on Complex Analysis in Several Variables XXIII, which was dedicated to the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Bergman kernel.
This book provides a systematic treatment of algebraic and topological properties of convex sets (possibly non-closed or unbounded) in the n-dimensional Euclidean space.
This book is centered around higher algebraic structures stemming from the work of Murray Gerstenhaber and Jim Stasheff that are now ubiquitous in various areas of mathematics- such as algebra, algebraic topology, differential geometry, algebraic geometry, mathematical physics- and in theoretical physics such as quantum field theory and string theory.
This book collects the proceedings of a series of conferences dedicated to birational geometry of Fano varieties held in Moscow, Shanghai and PohangThe conferences were focused on the following two related problems:* existence of Kahler-Einstein metrics on Fano varieties* degenerations of Fano varietieson which two famous conjectures were recently proved.
This is the Proceedings of the ICM 2010 Satellite Conference on "e;Buildings, Finite Geometries and Groups"e; organized at the Indian Statistical Institute, Bangalore, during August 29 - 31, 2010.
Covering topics in algebraic geometry, coding theory, and cryptography, this volume presents interdisciplinary group research completed for the February 2016 conference at the Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM) in cooperation with the Association for Women in Mathematics (AWM).
This volume contains extended abstracts outlining selected talks and other selected presentations given by participants of the workshop "e;Positivity and Valuations"e;, held at the Centre de Recerca Matematica (CRM) in Barcelona from February 22nd to 26th, 2016.
The central theme of this volume is commutative algebra, with emphasis on special graded algebras, which are increasingly of interest in problems of algebraic geometry, combinatorics and computer algebra.
In the early years of the 1980s, while I was visiting the Institute for Ad- vanced Study (lAS) at Princeton as a postdoctoral member, I got a fascinating view, studying congruence modulo a prime among elliptic modular forms, that an automorphic L-function of a given algebraic group G should have a canon- ical p-adic counterpart of several variables.
This is the fourth volume of the Handbook of Geometry and Topology of Singularities, a series that aims to provide an accessible account of the state of the art of the subject, its frontiers, and its interactions with other areas of research.
This edited volume presents a fascinating collection of lecture notes focusing on differential equations from two viewpoints: formal calculus (through the theory of Grobner bases) and geometry (via quiver theory).
This short and readable introduction to algebraic geometry will be ideal for all undergraduate mathematicians coming to the subject for the first time.
Configurations can be studied from a graph-theoretical viewpoint via the so-called Levi graphs and lie at the heart of graphs, groups, surfaces, and geometries, all of which are very active areas of mathematical exploration.
Eine verständliche, konzise und immer flüssige Einführung in die Algebra, die insbesondere durch ihre sorgfältige didaktische Aufbereitung bei vielen Studierenden Freunde findet.
This volume brings together recent, original research and survey articles by leading experts in several fields that include singularity theory, algebraic geometry and commutative algebra.
This book introduces foundational topics such as group theory, fields, linear algebra, matrix theory, and graph theory, providing readers with the essential background needed to understand Feynman diagrams and their integral representations.
