The main result of this original research monograph is the classification of C*-algebras of ordinary foliations of the plane in terms of a class of -trees.
These notes will be useful and of interest to mathematicians and physicists active in research as well as for students with some knowledge of the abstract theory of operators in Hilbert spaces.
Freeness of an action of a compact Lie group on a compact Hausdorff space is equivalent to a simple condition on the corresponding equivariant K-theory.
The focal topic of the 14th International Conference on Differential Geometric Methods was that of mathematical problems in classical field theory and the emphasis of the resulting proceedings volume is on superfield theory and related topics, and classical and quantized fields.
It is well known that there are close relations between classes of singularities and representation theory via the McKay correspondence and between representation theory and vector bundles on projective spaces via the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand construction.
From 1-4 April 1986 a Symposium on Algebraic Groups was held at the University of Utrecht, The Netherlands, in celebration of the 350th birthday of the University and the 60th of T.
The field of nonlinear hyperbolic problems has been expanding very fast over the past few years, and has applications - actual and potential - in aerodynamics, multifluid flows, combustion, detonics amongst other.
The book incorporates research papers and surveys written byparticipants ofan International Scientific Programme onApproximation Theory jointly supervised by Institute forConstructive Mathematics of University of South Florida atTampa, USA and the Euler International MathematicalInstituteat St.
The original idea of the organizers of the Washington Symposium was to span a fairly narrow range of topics on some recent techniques developed for the investigation of nonlinear partial differential equations and discuss these in a forum of experts.
The final aim of the book is to construct effective discretization methods to solve multidimensional weakly singular integral equations of the second kind on a region of Rn e.
These are the proceedings of the Israel Seminar on the Geometric Aspects of Functional Analysis (GAFA) which was held between October 1985 and June 1986.
The study of hypersurface quadrilateral singularities can bereduced to the study of elliptic K3 surfaces with a singularfiber of type I * 0 (superscript *, subscript 0), andtherefore these notes consider, besides the topics of thetitle, such K3 surfaces too.
A Nash manifold denotes a real manifold furnished with algebraic structure, following a theorem of Nash that a compact differentiable manifold can be imbedded in a Euclidean space so that the image is precisely such a manifold.
These notes are concerned with showing the relation between L-functions of classical groups (*F1 in particular) and *F2 functions arising from the oscillator representation of the dual reductive pair *F1 *F3 O(Q).
This book provides a comprehensive exposition of M-idealtheory, a branch ofgeometric functional analysis whichdeals with certain subspaces of Banach spaces arisingnaturally in many contexts.
The subject of this book is a new direction in the field ofprobability theory and mathematical statistics which can becalled "e;stability theory"e;: it deals with evaluating theeffects of perturbing initial probabilistic models andembraces quite varied subtopics: limit theorems, queueingmodels, statistical inference, probability metrics, etc.
This book reviews recent results on low-dimensional quantumfield theories and their connection with quantum grouptheory and the theory of braided, balanced tensorcategories.
The main topics of the conference on "Curves in Projective Space" were good and bad families of projective curves, postulation of projective space curves and classical problems in enumerative geometry.
These proceedings reflect the main activities of the Paris Seminaire d'Algebre 1989-1990, with a series of papers in Invariant Theory, Representation Theory and Combinatorics.
Gromov's theory of hyperbolic groups have had a big impactin combinatorial group theory and has deep connections withmany branches of mathematics suchdifferential geometry,representation theory, ergodic theory and dynamical systems.
The volume contains the texts of four courses, given bythe authors at a summer school that sought to present thestate of the art in the growing field of topological methodsin the theory of o.
