Geometry

  • “Mathesis of the Mind”by David W. Wood

    Editions Rodopi 2012; US$ 75.40

    This is the first major study in any language on J.G. Fichte’s philosophy of mathematics and theory of geometry. It investigates both the external formal and internal cognitive parallels between the axioms, intuitions and constructions of geometry and the scientific methodology of the Fichtean system of philosophy. In contrast to “ordinary”... more...

  • 1.1: Livre I. Commentaire historique et mathématique, édition et traduction du texte arabe. 1.2: Livre I: Édition et traduction du texte grecby Micheline Decorps-Foulquier; Roshdi Rashed; Michel Federspiel

    De Gruyter 2008; US$ 238.00

    The treatise on conic sections by the Hellenistic mathematician Apollonius from Perga is regarded as a supreme achievement of Greek mathematics and maintained its authority right up to the 18th century. This new edition is the first to consider all Greek and Arabic sources, with the Arabic texts being presented in the first ever critical edition. Both... more...

  • 21st Century Kinematicsby J. Michael McCarthy

    Springer 2012; US$ 159.99

    21st Century Kinematics focuses on algebraic problems in the analysis and synthesis of mechanisms and robots, compliant mechanisms, cable-driven systems and protein kinematics. The specialist contributors provide the background for a series of presentations at the 2012 NSF Workshop. The text shows how the analysis and design of innovative mechanical... more...

  • 3D Computer Graphicsby Samuel R. Buss

    Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 82.00

    This textbook emphasises fundamentals and the mathematics underlying 3D computer graphics while also covering programming techniques using OpenGL, a platform-independent graphics programming environment. Topics include transformations and viewing, lighting and shading, ray tracing, radiosity, texture mapping and colour theory, and aspects of animation,... more...

  • 5000 Jahre Geometrieby P. Schreiber; C.J. Scriba

    Springer 2006; US$ 43.99

    Schon lange bevor die Schrift entwickelt wurde, hat der Mensch geometrische Strukturen wahrgenommen und systematisch verwendet. So entstehen beim Weben und Flechten einfache zweidimensionale Muster und ohne dreidimensionale Krper wie Quader, Wrfel oder Pyramide ist keine Bauttigkeit denkbar. Das vorliegende Buch gibt einen faszinierenden berblick ber... more...

  • 5000 Jahre Geometrieby Christoph J. Scriba; Peter Schreiber

    Springer 2010; US$ 59.95

    Lange bevor die Schrift entwickelt wurde, hat der Mensch geometrische Strukturen verwendet. Beim Weben und Flechten entstanden einfache 2-dimensionale Muster, Bauen war ohne 3-dimensionale Körper nicht denkbar. Der Band gibt einen faszinierenden Überblick über die geometrischen Vorstellungen der Menschen von der Urgesellschaft bis zu den komplexen... more...

  • A.D. Alexandrovby S.S. Kutateladze

    Taylor and Francis 2005; US$ 165.95

    A.D. Alexandrov is considered by many to be the father of intrinsic geometry, second only to Gauss in surface theory. That appraisal stems primarily from this masterpiece--now available in its entirely for the first time since its 1948 publication in Russian. Alexandrov's treatise  begins with an outline of the basic concepts, definitions, and results... more...

  • Abelian Varieties, Theta Functions and the Fourier Transformby Alexander Polishchuk; B. Bollobas; W. Fulton; A. Katok; F. Kirwan; P. Sarnak

    Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 89.00

    The aim of this book is to present a modern treatment of the theory of theta functions in the context of algebraic geometry. The novelty of its approach lies in the systematic use of the Fourier-Mukai transform. more...

  • Abstract Algebraby Celine Carstensen; Gerhard Rosenberger; Benjamin Fine

    De Gruyter 2011; US$ 650.00

    ?A new approach to conveying abstract algebra, the area that studies algebraic structures, such as groups, rings, fields, modules, vector spaces, and algebras, that is essential to various scientific disciplines such as particle physics and cryptology. It provides a well written account of the theoretical foundations; also contains topics that cannot... more...

  • Abstract Regular Polytopesby Peter McMullen; Egon Schulte; G.-C. Rota

    Cambridge University Press 2002; US$ 155.00

    Abstract regular polytopes are highly symmetric combinatorial structures with distinctive geometric, algebraic or topological properties. This comprehensive up-to-date account of the subject meets a critical need for a text in this area; no book has been published in this topic since Coxeter's Regular Polytopes (1948) and Regular Complex Polytopes... more...
