Download or read book Approximation Theory written by Ole Christensen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-03-18 with total page 1080 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concisely written book gives an elementary introduction to a classical area of mathematics—approximation theory—in a way that naturally leads to the modern field of wavelets. The exposition, driven by ideas rather than technical details and proofs, demonstrates the dynamic nature of mathematics and the influence of classical disciplines on many areas of modern mathematics and applications. Key features and topics: * Description of wavelets in words rather than mathematical symbols * Elementary introduction to approximation using polynomials (Weierstrass’ and Taylor’s theorems) * Introduction to infinite series, with emphasis on approximation-theoretic aspects * Introduction to Fourier analysis * Numerous classical, illustrative examples and constructions * Discussion of the role of wavelets in digital signal processing and data compression, such as the FBI’s use of wavelets to store fingerprints * Minimal prerequisites: elementary calculus * Exercises that may be used in undergraduate and graduate courses on infinite series and Fourier series Approximation Theory: From Taylor Polynomials to Wavelets will be an excellent textbook or self-study reference for students and instructors in pure and applied mathematics, mathematical physics, and engineering. Readers will find motivation and background material pointing toward advanced literature and research topics in pure and applied harmonic analysis and related areas.

Download or read book Los ninfoleptos Bipolaridad Arte y Locura written by Óscar Benassini Félix and published by Editorial Ink. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incluye audio del autor. ¿Quiénes son los ninfoleptos? Antiguamente se les identificaba como personajes delirantes frente a las ninfas cuyas mentes veían emergiendo de una fuente. Sin embargo, ver visiones no era su único infortunio. La depresión y otras manías se consideraban su peor castigo. Hoy, mucho tiempo después se sabe que los ninfoleptos padecen bipolaridad, ese trastorno de la conducta que padecen importantes artistas de diversas disciplinas y que lo hizo ser considerado un don, más que un trastorno. Arte y enfermedad, vistos desde el ojo científico, es el tema que aborda Óscar Benassini en este ensayo en el que lo mismo nos sentiremos conmovidos frente al drama infantil de la poetisa Sylvia Plath que frente a las locuras adolescentes del rockero Kurt Cobain. La bipolaridad es un trastorno tan especial de la conducta y con tantas aristas, que algunos han planteado incluso la posibilidad de que antes que una enfermedad sea considerada un don, debido a la gran cantidad de artistas geniales que la han sufrido.

Download or read book Historia m nima de Centroam rica written by Rodolfo Pastor and published by El Colegio de Mexico AC. This book was released on 2011 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este pequeño libro ambicioso intenta articular una visión integral de Centroamérica. La historia material y espiritual, que habla de las cifras de la economía y sus ciclos, pero asimismo de los anhelos y los conceptos básicos, de los poemas y las construcciones imaginarias de los centroamericanos y que pretende explicar un proceso social particular, pero ambiciona también seguir los cambios políticos profundos y adaptaciones de los centroamericanos a los cambios del poder externo, sus revoluciones y las más típicas evoluciones, desde la antigüedad hasta las vicisitudes del imperialismo estadounidense, de que ha sido teatro el istmo durante el último siglo, pasando por los conflictos imperiales entre España e Inglaterra en la era colonial, y entre Inglaterra y EUA en el siglo XIX. Esta obra tiene pues lagunas, olvidos necesarios. Pero quizás también un mérito: más que otras obras parecidas consigue demostrar cómo en la era colonial se integró una economía y sociedad que imantaron una discusión pública centroamericana.
