The modern theory of Kleinian groups starts with the work of Lars Ahlfors and Lipman Bers; specifically with Ahlfors' finiteness theorem, and Bers' observation that their joint work on the Beltrami equation has deep implications for the theory of Kleinian groups and their deformations.
This unusual book, richly illustrated with 29 colour illustrations and about 200 line drawings, explores the relationship between classical tessellations and three-manifolds.
This book is devoted to the theory of geometries which are locally Euclidean, in the sense that in small regions they are identical to the geometry of the Euclidean plane or Euclidean 3-space.
In this book problems related to the choice of models in such diverse fields as regression, covariance structure, time series analysis and multinomial experiments are discussed.
The question of existence of c10sed geodesics on a Riemannian manifold and the properties of the corresponding periodic orbits in the geodesic flow has been the object of intensive investigations since the beginning of global differential geo- metry during the last century.
From the reviews: "e;Serre's notes on groups acting on trees have appeared in various forms (all in French) over the past ten years and they have had a profound influence on the development of many areas, for example, the theory of ends of discrete groups.
The material covered by this book has been taught by one of the authors in a post-graduate course on Numerical Analysis at the University Pierre et Marie Curie of Paris.
a c 9 h In presenting this monograph, I would like to indicate both its orientation as well as my personal reasons for being interested in discrete iterations (that is, iterations on a generally very large,jinite set).
Project planning, scheduling, and control are regularly used in business and the service sector of an economy to accomplish outcomes with limited resources under critical time constraints.
Here is a book for clinicians, clinical investigators, trainees, and graduates who wish to develop their proficiency in the planning, execution, and interpretation of clinical and epidemiological research.
Searching is an important process in most AI systems, especially in those AI production systems consisting of a global database, a set of production rules, and a control system.
Content and Subject Matter: This research monograph deals with two main subjects, namely the notion of equimultiplicity and the algebraic study of various graded rings in relation to blowing ups.
The problem of uniform distribution of sequences initiated by Hardy, Little- wood and Weyl in the 1910's has now become an important part of number theory.
The Second Autumn Course on Mathematical Ecology was held at the Intern- ational Centre for Theoretical Physics in Trieste, Italy in November and December of 1986.
A knowledge of linear systems provides a firm foundation for the study of optimal control theory and many areas of system theory and signal processing.
Infinite series, and their analogues-integral representations, became funda-mental tools in mathematical analysis, starting in the second half of the seven-teenth century.
Over the past fifteen years two new techniques have yielded extremely important contributions toward the numerical solution of nonlinear systems of equations.
