Pythagorus
Icon Books 2011; US$ 11.65The enthralling story of Pythagoras and the Pythagoreans, whose insight transformed the ancient world and still inspire the realms of science, mathematics, philosophy and the arts. Einstein said that the most incredible thing about our universe was that it was comprehensible at all. As Kitty Ferguson explains in this eye-opening new book, Pythagoras... more...
Pappus of Alexandria: Book 4 of the Collection
Springer 2010; US$ 99.99Although not so well known today, Book 4 of Pappus' Collection is one of the most important and influential mathematical texts from antiquity. The mathematical vignettes form a portrait of mathematics during the Hellenistic "Golden Age", illustrating central problems - for example, squaring the circle; doubling the cube; and trisecting... more...
Trivariate Local Lagrange Interpolation and Macro Elements of Arbitrary Smoothness
Springer 2012; US$ 84.99Michael A. Matt constructs two trivariate local Lagrange interpolation methods which yield optimal approximation order and Cr macro-elements based on the Alfeld and the Worsey-Farin split of a tetrahedral partition. The first interpolation method is based on cubic C1 splines over type-4 cube partitions, for which numerical tests are given. The second... more...
Orthogonalität und Approximation
Springer 2012; US$ 39.99Das Buch macht am Beispiel der Bestimmung guter Näherungen durch Entwicklung über Orthogonalbasen deutlich, wie universell und erfolgreich der Blick auf grundlegende Strukturen in der Mathematik sein kann: Dieselbe Theorie, die im dreidimensionalen Raum Abstände berechnen hilft, steckt hinter modernen Formen der Signalverarbeitung (z.... more...
The Ergodic Theory of Discrete Groups
Cambridge University Press 1989; US$ 74.00The particular focus of the book is on the remarkable measure supported on the limit set of a discrete group that was first developed by S. J. Patterson. more...
Ergodic Theory and Harmonic Analysis
Cambridge University Press 1995; US$ 71.00Tutorial survey papers on important areas of ergodic theory, with related research papers. more...
Ancient Mathematics
Taylor and Francis 2001; US$ 41.95The theorem of Pythagoras, Euclid's "Elements", Archimedes' method to find the volume of a sphere: all parts of the invaluable legacy of ancient mathematics. But ancient mathematics was also about counting and measuring, surveying land and attributing mystical significance to the number six. This volume offers the first accessible survey of the discipline... more...
Iterated Integrals And Cycles On Algebraic Manifolds
World Scientific Publishing Company 2004; US$ 57.20This subject has been of great interest both to topologists and to number theorists. The first part of this book describes some of the work of Kuo-Tsai Chen on iterated integrals and the fundamental group of a manifold. The author attempts to make his exposition accessible to beginning graduate students. He then proceeds to apply Chen's constructions... more...
