Synergetics may be considered as an interdisciplinary effort dealing with the gene- ral problem of how science can cope with complex systems.

This is a textbook written for use in a graduate-level course for students of mechanics and engineering science.

This unusual book, richly illustrated with 29 colour illustrations and about 200 line drawings, explores the relationship between classical tessellations and three-manifolds.

Infinite series, and their analogues-integral representations, became funda-mental tools in mathematical analysis, starting in the second half of the seven-teenth century.

We consider the basic problems, notions and facts in the theory of entire functions of several variables, i.

Hysteresis phenomena are common in numerous physical, mechanical, ecological and biological systems.

This book grew-how could it be otherwise?

Image understanding is an attempt to extract knowledge about a 3D scene from 20 images.

For the past five years, my editor at Springer-Verlag has asked me to write a second edition of this text that would incorporate new material on the quark model.

DYNAMICS REPORTED reports on recent developments in dynamical systems.

Statistical Physics II introduces nonequilibrium theories of statistical mechanics from the viewpoint of the fluctuation-disipation theorem.

The purpose and organisation of this book are described in the preface to the first edition (1988).

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.

This well-known booklet, now in its third, expanded edition, provides an informal survey of applications of singularity theory in a wide range of areas.
