Numbers and Other Math Ideas Come Alive
Wide World Publishing, Tetra 2012; US$ 10.95Most people don?t think about numbers, or take them for granted. For the average person numbers are looked upon as cold, clinical, inanimate objects. Math ideas are viewed as something to get a job done or a problem solved. Get ready for a big surprise with Numbers and Other Math Ideas Come Alive . Pappas explores mathematical ideas by looking behind... more...
System Identification, Environmental Modelling, and Control System Design
Springer 2011; US$ 179.99This book is dedicated to Prof. Peter Young on his 70th birthday. Professor Young has been a pioneer in systems and control, and over the past 45 years he has influenced many developments in this field. This volume comprises a collection of contributions by leading experts in system identification, time-series analysis, environmetric modelling and... more...
Structure and Geometry of Lie Groups
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99This self-contained text is an excellent introduction to Lie groups and their actions on manifolds. The authors start with an elementary discussion of matrix groups, followed by chapters devoted to the basic structure and representation theory of finite dimensinal Lie algebras. They then turn to global issues, demonstrating the key issue of the interplay... more...
Optimal Mobile Sensing and Actuation Policies in Cyber-physical Systems
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99A successful cyber-physical system, a complex interweaving of hardware and software with some part of the physical environment, depends on proper identification of the, often pre-existing, physical element. A bespoke "cyber" part of the system may then be designed from scratch. Optimal Mobile Sensing and Actuation Strategies in Cyber-physical... more...
Distributed-Order Dynamic Systems
Springer 2012; US$ 31.99Distributed-order differential equations, a generalization of fractional calculus, are of increasing importance in many fields of science and engineering from the behaviour of complex dielectric media to the modelling of nonlinear systems. This Brief will broaden the toolbox available to researchers interested in modeling, analysis, control and filtering.... more...
Functional Equations in Mathematical Analysis
Springer 2011; US$ 179.99The stability problem for approximate homomorphisms, or the Ulam stability problem, was posed by S. M. Ulam in the year 1941. The solution of this problem for various classes of equations is an expanding area of research. In particular, the pursuit of solutions to the Hyers-Ulam and Hyers-Ulam-Rassias stability problems for sets of functional equations... more...
Edmond Halleys Reconstruction of the Lost Book of Apolloniuss Conics
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99Apollonius's Conics was one of the greatest works of advanced mathematics in antiquity. The work comprised eight books, of which four have come down to us in their original Greek and three in Arabic. By the time the Arabic translations were produced, the eighth book had already been lost. In 1710, Edmond Halley, then Savilian Professor of Geometry... more...
Harnack's Inequality for Degenerate and Singular Parabolic Equations
Springer 2011; US$ 79.99Degenerate and singular parabolic equations have been the subject of extensive research for the last 25 years. Despite important achievements, the issue of the Harnack inequality for non-negative solutions to these equations, both of p-Laplacian and porous medium type, while raised by several authors, has remained basically open. Recently considerable... more...
Direct Methods in the Theory of Elliptic Equations
Springer 2011; US$ 99.99NeAias' book Direct Methods in the Theory of Elliptic Equations, published 1967 in French, has become a standard reference for the mathematical theory of linear elliptic equations and systems. This English edition presents NeAias' work essentially in the form it was published in 1967. It gives a timeless and in some sense definitive treatment... more...
