Genetic Algorithms and Genetic Programming
CRC Press 2009; US$ 87.95Describes several generic algorithmic concepts that can be used in various kinds of GA or with evolutionary optimization techniques. This title provides a better understanding of the basic workflow of GAs and GP, encouraging readers to establish new bionic, problem-independent theoretical concepts. more...
Computable Structures and the Hyperarithmetical Hierarchy
Elsevier Science 2000; US$ 133.00This book describes a program of research in computable structure theory. The goal is to find definability conditions corresponding to bounds on complexity which persist under isomorphism. The results apply to familiar kinds of structures (groups, fields, vector spaces, linear orderings Boolean algebras, Abelian p-groups, models of arithmetic). There... more...
Tracking Reason
Oxford University Press 2006; US$ 23.99When ordinary people - mathematicians among them - take something to follow (deductively) from something else, they are exposing the backbone of our self-ascribed ability to reason. This book investigates the connection between that ordinary notion of consequence and the formal analogues invented by logicians. more...
The Lambda Calculus
Elsevier 1985; US$ 133.00The revised edition contains a new chapter which provides an elegant description of the semantics. The various classes of lambda calculus models are described in a uniform manner. Some didactical improvements have been made to this edition. An example of a simple model is given and then the general theory (of categorical models) is developed. Indications... more...
The Moment of Proof
Oxford University Press, USA 2000; US$ 22.99When Archimedes, while bathing, suddenly hit upon the principle of buoyancy, he ran wildly through the streets of Syracuse, stark naked, crying "eureka!" In The Moment of Proof, Donald Benson attempts to convey to general readers the feeling of eureka--the joy of discovery--that mathematicians feel when they first encounter an elegant proof.... more...
Computability and Logic
Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 28.00Now in its fourth edition, this book has become a classic because it covers not simply the staple topics of intermediate logic courses but also a large number of other topics. John Burgess has enhanced the book by adding problems at the end of each chapter and by rewriting chapters. more...
Computability and Logic
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 27.00Computability and Logic is a classic because of its accessibility to students without a mathematical background. more...
Apartness and Uniformity
Springer 2011; US$ 79.99This book presents a theory of apartness encompassing both point-set topology and the theory of uniform spaces. The first book on the apartness approach to constructive topology, it is a valuable addition to the literature on topology in computer science. more...
Varieties of Constructive Mathematics
Cambridge University Press 1987; US$ 45.00This is an introduction to, and survey of, the constructive approaches to pure mathematics. more...
Handbook of Proof Theory
Elsevier Science 1998; US$ 182.00This volume contains articles covering a broad spectrum of proof theory, with an emphasis on its mathematical aspects. The articles should not only be interesting to specialists of proof theory, but should also be accessible to a diverse audience, including logicians, mathematicians, computer scientists and philosophers. Many of the central topics... more...
