This volume is a collection of invited papers on the theory of groups, most of which were presented at the biennial Ohio State-Denison Conference, May 1992, in memory of Hans Zassenhaus.
This proceedings volume consists of contributed papers which deal with diverse topics ranging from logical questions to geometric methods and covering both integral group rings and group algebras.
The Wigner symposia gather forefront researchers in the many branches of mathematical physics initiated or influenced by the work of Eugene P Wigner, who died this year.
This book contains the proceedings of two international conferences: a satellite meeting of the IUPAP Statphys-19 Conference and the Seventh Nankai Workshop, held in Tianjin, China in August 1995.
In his 1974 seminal paper 'Elliptic modules', V G Drinfeld introduced objects into the arithmetic geometry of global function fields which are nowadays known as 'Drinfeld Modules'.
The topics in this volume range from mathematical aspects of the theory of the Poincare group, Clifford algebras and the CPT theorem, through new theoretical physical constructions and concepts (such as the physical significance of the 4-potential, the interplay between quantum mechanics and gravity, Majorana-like models, the photon as a composite particle, action-at-a-distance and superluminal phenomena), to experiments in neutrino physics.
This volume focuses on developments in the field of group theory in its broadest sense and is of interest to theoretical and experimental physicists, mathematicians, and scientists in related disciplines who are interested in the latest methods and applications.
This book is concerned with the generalizations of Sylow theorems and the related topics of formations and the fitting of classes to locally finite groups.
This volume provides an accessible and coherent introduction to some of the scientific progress on functional equations on groups in the last two decades.
This book is devoted to the possible applications of spectral analysis and spectral synthesis for convolution type functional equations on topological abelian groups.
Quantum groups are a generalization of the classical Lie groups and Lie algebras and provide a natural extension of the concept of symmetry fundamental to physics.
Motivated by applications in theoretical computer science, the theory of finite semigroups has emerged in recent years as an autonomous area of mathematics.
This book is concerned with the structure of linear semigroups, that is, subsemigroups of the multiplicative semigroup Mn(K) of n n matrices over a field K (or, more generally, skew linear semigroups - if K is allowed to be a division ring) and its applications to certain problems on associative algebras, semigroups and linear representations.
This invaluable book provides a concise and systematic introduction to the theory of compact connected Lie groups and their representations, as well as a complete presentation of the structure and classification theory.
This book provides a comprehensive account of the theory of moduli spaces of elliptic curves (over integer rings) and its application to modular forms.
The thematic term on "e;Semigroups, Algorithms, Automata and Languages"e; organized at the International Centre of Mathematics (Coimbra, Portugal) in May-July 2001 was the gathering point for researchers working in the field of semigroups, algorithms, automata and languages.
Over the past 20 years, the theory of groups - in particular simple groups, finite and algebraic - has influenced a number of diverse areas of mathematics.
In this volume, an abstract theory of 'forms' is developed, thus providing a conceptually satisfying framework for the classification of forms of Fermat equations.
This book presents an extensive variety of multi-objective problems across diverse disciplines, along with statistical solutions using multi-objective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs).
In recent years, semigroups and languages have seen huge developments and found their motivation in other fields of mathematics as well as in computer science.
This book focuses on the algebraic-topological aspects of probability theory, leading to a wider and deeper understanding of basic theorems, such as those on the structure of continuous convolution semigroups and the corresponding processes with independent increments.
This festschrift volume in honour of Donald B McAlister on the occasion of his 65th birthday presents papers from leading researchers in semigroups and formal languages.
Assisted by Scott Olsen (Central Florida Community College, USA) This volume is a result of the author's four decades of research in the field of Fibonacci numbers and the Golden Section and their applications.
