Putnam and Beyond takes the reader on a journey through the world of college mathematics, focusing on some of the most important concepts and results in the theories of polynomials, linear algebra, real analysis in one and several variables, differential equations, coordinate geometry, trigonometry, elementary number theory, combinatorics, and probability.
Gauge Field theory in Natural Geometric Language addresses the need to clarify basic mathematical concepts at the crossroad between gravitation and quantum physics.
This book is a general introduction to Higher AlgebraicK-groups of rings and algebraic varieties, which were firstdefined by Quillen at the beginning of the 70's.
This volume presents the proceedings of a series of lectures hosted by the Math- ematics Department of The University of Tennessee, Knoxville, March 22-24, 1995, under the title "e;Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations in Geometry and Physics"e; .
Provides the first systematic study of geometry and topology of locally symmetric rank one manifolds and dynamics of discrete action of their fundamental groups.
This book provides an up-to-date introduction to the theory of manifolds, submanifolds, semi-Riemannian geometry and warped product geometry, and their applications in geometry and physics.
The aim of this volume is to reinforce the interaction between the three main branches (abstract, convex and computational) of the theory of polytopes.
This treatment of differential geometry and the mathematics required for general relativity makes the subject of this book accessible for the first time to anyone familiar with elementary calculus in one variable and with a knowledge of some vector algebra.
This book pedagogically describes recent developments in gauge theory, in particular four-dimensional N = 2 supersymmetric gauge theory, in relation to various fields in mathematics, including algebraic geometry, geometric representation theory, vertex operator algebras.
Many physical processes in fields such as mechanics, thermodynamics, electricity, magnetism or optics are described by means of partial differential equations.
This monograph contains an exposition of the theory of minimal surfaces in Euclidean space, with an emphasis on complete minimal surfaces of finite total curvature.
This book expounds on the recent developments in applications of holomorphic functions in the theory of hypercomplex and anti-Hermitian manifolds as well as in the geometry of bundles.
The elements of abstract algebra have almost everywhere found a place in the undergraduate courses of universities, but this has happened to some extent at the expense of courses on geometry.
This proceedings contains a collection of selected, peer-reviewed contributions from the 4th International Workshop "e;Differential Geometric Structures and Applications"e; held in Haifa, Israel from May 10-13, 2023.
Now in its third decade, the Colorado Mathematical Olympiad (CMO), founded by the author, has become an annual state-wide competition, hosting many hundreds of middle and high school contestants each year.
Appliies variational methods and critical point theory on infinite dimenstional manifolds to some problems in Lorentzian geometry which have a variational nature, such as existence and multiplicity results on geodesics and relations between such geodesics and the topology of the manifold.
Homogeneous spaces of linear algebraic groups lie at the crossroads of algebraic geometry, theory of algebraic groups, classical projective and enumerative geometry, harmonic analysis, and representation theory.
