Spin Glassesby J. A. Mydosh
CRC Press 1993; US$ 139.95An introduction to the phenomenon and physics of spin glasses using an experimental approach. The book describes spin glasses as a state of magnetic ordering in third place after ferromagnetism and antiferromagnetism. more...
Optical Properties of Sufacesby D Bedeaux; J Vlieger
World Scientific 2001; US$ 119.60This invaluable book represents a substantial body of work describing the theory of the optical properties of thin island films and rough surfaces. In both cases the feature sizes are small compared to the wavelength of light. The approach is extremely rigorous and theoretically very thorough.The reflection, transmission and absorption of light are described. Computer programs that provide exact solutions for theoretical properties of thin island films have recently become available, and this makes the book of great practical use. more...
Double Affine Hecke Algebrasby Ivan Cherednik; N. J. Hitchin
Cambridge University Press 2005; US$ 73.00This book is a unique, essentially self-contained, monograph in a new field of fundamental importance for Representation Theory, Harmonic Analysis, Mathematical Physics, and Combinatorics. It is a major source of general information about the double affine Hecke algebra, also called Cherednik's algebra, and its impressive applications. more...

The Local Langlands Conjecture for GL(2)by Colin J. Bushnell; Guy Henniart
Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG 2006; US$ 125.00The local Langlands Conjecture for GL(n) postulates the existence of a canonical bijection between such objects and n-dimensional representations of the Weil group, generalizing class field theory. This book gives a self-contained proof of the Langlands conjecture in the case n=2. It is aimed at graduate students and at researchers. more...
Dirac Operators in Representation Theoryby Jing-song Huang; Pavle Pand?ic
Springer 2006; US$ 84.95Dirac operators are used in physics, differential geometry, and group-theoretic settings. Using Dirac operators as a unifying theme, this work demonstrates how some of the important results in representation theory fit together when viewed from this perspective. It presents the important ideas on Dirac operators and Dirac cohomology. more...

Group Representationsby G. Karpilovsky
Elsevier 1994; US$ 223.00This third volume can be roughly divided into two parts. The first part is devoted to the investigation of various properties of projective characters. Special attention is drawn to spin representations and their character tables and to various correspondences for projective characters. Among other topics, projective Schur index and projective representations of abelian groups are covered. The last topic is investigated by introducing a symplectic geometry on finite abelian groups. The second part is devoted to Clifford theory for graded algebras and its application to the corresponding theory for group algebras. The volume ends with a detailed investigation of the Schur index for ordinary representations. A prominant role is played in the... more...
Representations of Groupsby Klaus Lux; Herbert Pahlings
Cambridge University Press 2010; US$ 56.00An introduction to the ordinary and modular representation theory of finite groups, with special emphasis on computational aspects. more...
