A volume of this nature containing a collection of papers has been brought out to honour a gentleman - a friend and a colleague - whose work has, to a large extent, advanced and popularized the use of stochastic point processes.

he problem of analyzing sequences of images to extract three-dimensional T motion and structure has been at the heart of the research in computer vi- sion for many years.

Statistical Physics I discusses the fundamentals of equilibrium statistical mechanics, focussing on basic physical aspects.

In recent years there has been a considerable renewal of interest in the clas- sical problems of the calculus of variations, both from the point of view of mathematics and of applications.

Fractals and disordered systems have recently become the focus of intense interest in research.

One of the driving forces behind much of modern science andtechnology is the desire to foresee and thereby control thefuture.

The book gives an exposition of the standard model of elementary particles based on coordinate-free differential geometric foundations.

Since the human organism is itself an open system, we are naturally curious about the behavior of other open systems with fluxes of matter, energy or information.

The first objective of statistical mechanics is to explain the fundamental laws of thermodynamics from first principles based on the atomic structure of matter.
