  • Circles Disturbedby Apostolos Doxiadis; Barry Mazur

    Princeton University Press 2012; US$ 49.50

    Circles Disturbed brings together important thinkers in mathematics, history, and philosophy to explore the relationship between mathematics and narrative. The book's title recalls the last words of the great Greek mathematician Archimedes before he was slain by a Roman soldier--"Don't disturb my circles"--words that seem to refer to two radically... more...

  • Stability by Liapunov's direct methodsby Joseph La Salle; Solomon Lefschetz

    Elsevier Science 2012; US$ 161.00

    In this book, we study theoretical and practical aspects of computing methods for mathematical modelling of nonlinear systems. A number of computing techniques are considered, such as methods of operator approximation with any given accuracy; operator interpolation techniques including a non-Lagrange interpolation; methods of system representation... more...

  • Delay-Coupled Complex Systemsby Valentin Flunkert

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    This work addresses time-delay in complex nonlinear systems and, in particular, its applications in complex networks; its role in control theory and nonlinear optics are also investigated. Delays arise naturally in networks of coupled systems due to finite signal propagation speeds and are thus a key issue in many areas of physics, biology, medicine,... more...

  • Extensions of Moser-Bangert Theoryby Paul H. Rabinowitz; Edward W. Stredulinsky

    Springer 2011; US$ 99.99

    This self-contained monograph presents extensions of the Moser-Bangert approach that include solutions of a family of nonlinear elliptic PDEs on Rn and an Allen-Cahn PDE model of phase transitions. After recalling the relevant Moser-Bangert results, Extensions of Moser-Bangert Theory pursues the rich structure of the set of solutions of a simpler model... more...

  • Progress in Variational Methodsby Chungen Liu; Yiming Long

    World Scientific Publishing Company 2010; US$ 127.00

    In the last forty years, nonlinear analysis has been broadly and rapidly developed. Lectures presented in the International Conference on Variational Methods at the Chern Institute of Mathematics in Tianjin of May 2009 reflect this development from different angles. This volume contains articles based on lectures in the following areas of nonlinear... more...

  • Nonlinear Scienceby Zensho Yoshida

    Springer 2010; US$ 99.99

    This book gives a general, basic understanding of the mathematical structure "nonlinearity" that lies in the depths of complex systems. Analyzing the heterogeneity that the prefix "non" represents with respect to notions such as the linear space, integrability and scale hierarchy, "nonlinear science" is explained as a... more...

  • Reviews of Nonlinear Dynamics and Complexityby Heinz Georg Schuster

    Wiley 2009; US$ 175.00

    Adopting a cross-disciplinary approach, the review character of this monograph sets it apart from specialized journals. The editor is advised by a first-class board of international scientists, such that the carefully selected and invited contributions represent the latest and most relevant findings. more...

  • Optimal Control of Nonlinear Processesby Dieter Grass; Jonathan P. Caulkins; Gustav Feichtinger; Gernot Tragler; Doris A. Behrens

    Springer 2008; US$ 149.99

    Dynamic optimization is rocket science a" and more. This volume teaches how to harness the modern theory of dynamic optimization to solve practical problems, not only from space flight but also in emerging social applications such as the control of drugs, corruption, and terror. These innovative domains are usefully thought about in terms of populations,... more...

  • The Synchronized Dynamics of Complex Systemsby Stefano Boccaletti; Albert C.J. Luo; George Zaslavsky

    Elsevier Science 2008; US$ 195.00

    The origin of the word synchronization is a greek root, meaning "to share the common time". The original meaning of synchronization has been maintained up to now in the colloquial use of this word, as agreement or correlation in time of different processes. Historically, the analysis of synchronization phenomena in the evolution of dynamical systems... more...

  • Thinking as Communicatingby Anna Sfard

    Cambridge University Press 2008; US$ 29.00

    An important contribution to the current debate about how to think and talk about human thinking. more...
