This monograph introduces two approaches to studying Siegel modular forms: the classical approach as holomorphic functions on the Siegel upper half space, and the approach via representation theory on the symplectic group.
Assuming only basic algebra and Galois theory, the book develops the method of "e;algebraic patching"e; to realize finite groups and, more generally, to solve finite split embedding problems over fields.
This edited collection covers the role of the process observer - a position that enhances the effectiveness of group functioning by observing the process, summarizing the behavior of the group so that the group can learn and, if needed, improve its functioning.
