Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Preface. The theory of the Ikosahedron has during the last few years obtained a place of such importance for nearly all departments of modern analysis, that it seemed expedient to publish a systematic exposition of the same. Should this prove acceptable, I propose to continue in the same course and to treat in a similar manner the subject of Elliptic Modular Functions, and the general investigations newly made of Single-valued Functions, with linear transformations into themselves. Thus a treatise of several volumes would grow, in which I should expect to promote science, at least in so far as it might introduce many to realms of modern mathematics rich in far-stretching vistas. Referring generally as to the limitations of the material, which I have observed in this publication, to the future exposition itself, I would here only draw attention to the second part, which treats of the solution of equations of the fifth degree. - It is now fully twenty-five years since Brioschi, Hermite, and Kronecker in joint labours created the modern theory of equations of the fifth degree. But though these investigations are now and again quoted, the mathematical world at large has hitherto failed to grasp their true import. By giving the first place in the following pages to the subject of the Ikosahedron, and by treating this as the true basis of the processes of solution, a view of the theory is brought forward than which a simpler and more lucid one cannot well be desired. A special difficulty, which presented itself in the execution of my plan, lay in the great variety of mathematical methods entering into the theory of the Ikosahedron. On this account it seemed advisable to take for granted no specific previous knowledge in any direction, but rather to introduce, where necessary, such explanations and references as might suffice as preliminary landmarks on the field under immediate survey. What I, however, do expect in my reader is a certain ripeness of mathematical judgment, which shall enable him to interpret concise, brief statements, so as to see in them the general principle involved in the particular case. This is the same method I have ever pursued in my more advanced lectures; indeed I have introduced into the details of these expositions the practices of my lecture-room. It is in this spirit I would have the title interpreted which I have given to my disquisition. I cannot close these short prefatory remarks without expressing my special thanks to my honoured friends Professor Lie in Christiania and Professor Gordan in Erlangen for manifold suggestions and assistance. My indebtedness to Professor Lie dates back to the years 1869-70, when we were spending the last period of our student-life in Berlin and Paris together in intimate comradeship. At that time we jointly conceived the scheme of investigating geometric or analytic forms susceptible of transformation by means of groups of changes. This purpose has been of directing influence in our subsequent labours, though these may have appeared to lie far asunder. Whilst I primarily directed my attention to groups of discrete operations, and was thus led to the investigation of regular solids and their relations to the theory of equations, Professor Lie attacked the more recondite theory of continued groups of transformations, and therewith of differential equations. It was in the autumn of 1874 that I first came into real contact with Professor Gordan. I had at that time already commenced the study of the Ikosahedron for myself (without then knowing Professor Schwarz's earlier works, to which we shall hereafter frequently have occasion to refer); but I considered my whole manner of attacking the question rather in the light of preliminary training. If now a far-reaching theory has grown from those beginnings, I attribute this result primarily to Professor Gordan....

Download or read book Linear Differential Equations in the Complex Domain written by Yoshishige Haraoka and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-16 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed introduction to recent developments in the theory of linear differential systems and integrable total differential systems. Starting from the basic theory of linear ordinary differential equations and integrable systems, it proceeds to describe Katz theory and its applications, extending it to the case of several variables. In addition, connection problems, deformation theory, and the theory of integral representations are comprehensively covered. Complete proofs are given, offering the reader a precise account of the classical and modern theory of linear differential equations in the complex domain, including an exposition of Pfaffian systems and their monodromy problems. The prerequisites are a course in complex analysis and the basics of differential equations, topology and differential geometry. This book will be useful for graduate students, specialists in differential equations, and for non-specialists who want to use differential equations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written by a philosopher for other philosophers and for that section of the reading public who buy in large quantities and, no doubt, devour with great earnestness the popular books written by scientists for their enlightenment. We common readers, to adapt a phrase from Samuel Johnson, are fitted neither to criticize physical theories not to decide what precisely are their implications. We are dependent upon the scientists for an exposition of those developments which – so we find them proclaiming – have important and far-reaching consequences for philosophy. Unfortunately, however, our popular expositors do not always serve us very well. The two who are most widely read in this country are Sir Arthur Eddington and Sir James Jeans. They are not always reliable guides. Their influence has been considerable upon the reading public, upon theologians, and upon preachers; they have even misled philosopher who should have known better. Accordingly, it has seemed to me to be worth while to examine in some detail the philosophical views that they have put forth and to criticize the grounds upon which these views are based.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few people have proved more influential in the field of differential and algebraic geometry, and in showing how this links with mathematical physics, than Nigel Hitchin. Oxford University's Savilian Professor of Geometry has made fundamental contributions in areas as diverse as: spin geometry, instanton and monopole equations, twistor theory, symplectic geometry of moduli spaces, integrables systems, Higgs bundles, Einstein metrics, hyperkähler geometry, Frobenius manifolds, Painlevé equations, special Lagrangian geometry and mirror symmetry, theory of grebes, and many more. He was previously Rouse Ball Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, as well as Professor of Mathematics at the University of Warwick, is a Fellow of the Royal Society and has been the President of the London Mathematical Society. The chapters in this fascinating volume, written by some of the greats in their fields (including four Fields Medalists), show how Hitchin's ideas have impacted on a wide variety of subjects. The book grew out of the Geometry Conference in Honour of Nigel Hitchin, held in Madrid, with some additional contributions, and should be required reading for anyone seeking insights into the overlap between geometry and physics.
