Download or read book Two Dimensional Homotopy and Combinatorial Group Theory written by Cynthia Hog-Angeloni and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1993-12-09 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basic work on two-dimensional homotopy theory dates back to K. Reidemeister and J. H. C. Whitehead. Much work in this area has been done since then, and this book considers the current state of knowledge in all the aspects of the subject. The editors start with introductory chapters on low-dimensional topology, covering both the geometric and algebraic sides of the subject, the latter including crossed modules, Reidemeister-Peiffer identities, and a concrete and modern discussion of Whitehead's algebraic classification of 2-dimensional homotopy types. Further chapters have been skilfully selected and woven together to form a coherent picture. The latest algebraic results and their applications to 3- and 4-dimensional manifolds are dealt with. The geometric nature of the subject is illustrated to the full by over 100 diagrams. Final chapters summarize and contribute to the present status of the conjectures of Zeeman, Whitehead, and Andrews-Curtis. No other book covers all these topics. Some of the material here has been used in courses, making this book valuable for anyone with an interest in two-dimensional homotopy theory, from graduate students to research workers.

Download or read book New Directions in Locally Compact Groups written by Pierre-Emmanuel Caprace and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of expository articles by a range of established experts and newer researchers provides an overview of the recent developments in the theory of locally compact groups. It includes introductory articles on totally disconnected locally compact groups, profinite groups, p-adic Lie groups and the metric geometry of locally compact groups. Concrete examples, including groups acting on trees and Neretin groups, are discussed in detail. An outline of the emerging structure theory of locally compact groups beyond the connected case is presented through three complementary approaches: Willis' theory of the scale function, global decompositions by means of subnormal series, and the local approach relying on the structure lattice. An introduction to lattices, invariant random subgroups and L2-invariants, and a brief account of the Burger–Mozes construction of simple lattices are also included. A final chapter collects various problems suggesting future research directions.

Download or read book Partial Differential Equations in Fluid Mechanics written by Charles L. Fefferman and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Euler and Navier–Stokes equations are the fundamental mathematical models of fluid mechanics, and their study remains central in the modern theory of partial differential equations. This volume of articles, derived from the workshop 'PDEs in Fluid Mechanics' held at the University of Warwick in 2016, serves to consolidate, survey and further advance research in this area. It contains reviews of recent progress and classical results, as well as cutting-edge research articles. Topics include Onsager's conjecture for energy conservation in the Euler equations, weak-strong uniqueness in fluid models and several chapters address the Navier–Stokes equations directly; in particular, a retelling of Leray's formative 1934 paper in modern mathematical language. The book also covers more general PDE methods with applications in fluid mechanics and beyond. This collection will serve as a helpful overview of current research for graduate students new to the area and for more established researchers.

Download or read book Stochastic Stability of Differential Equations in Abstract Spaces written by Kai Liu and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-02 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stability of stochastic differential equations in abstract, mainly Hilbert, spaces receives a unified treatment in this self-contained book. It covers basic theory as well as computational techniques for handling the stochastic stability of systems from mathematical, physical and biological problems. Its core material is divided into three parts devoted respectively to the stochastic stability of linear systems, non-linear systems, and time-delay systems. The focus is on stability of stochastic dynamical processes affected by white noise, which are described by partial differential equations such as the Navier–Stokes equations. A range of mathematicians and scientists, including those involved in numerical computation, will find this book useful. It is also ideal for engineers working on stochastic systems and their control, and researchers in mathematical physics or biology.

Reid has been one of the major expositors of algebraic geometry and a great influence on many in this field – this book hopes to inspire a new generation of graduate students and researchers in his tradition.
Download or read book Introduction to Hidden Semi Markov Models written by John van der Hoek and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Markov chains and hidden Markov chains have applications in many areas of engineering and genomics. This book provides a basic introduction to the subject by first developing the theory of Markov processes in an elementary discrete time, finite state framework suitable for senior undergraduates and graduates. The authors then introduce semi-Markov chains and hidden semi-Markov chains, before developing related estimation and filtering results. Genomics applications are modelled by discrete observations of these hidden semi-Markov chains. This book contains new results and previously unpublished material not available elsewhere. The approach is rigorous and focused on applications.
