Cambridge University Press Dynamical Systems in Cosmology
Book SynopsisThis is the first book to show how modern dynamical systems theory can help us both in understanding the evolution of cosmological models, and in relating them to real cosmological observations. It will be an invaluable reference for graduate students and researchers in relativity, cosmology and dynamical systems theory.Trade Review'… much more than the usual conference proceedings, it is not just a collection of articles but rather a collectively written monograph … The exceptional character of the book is guaranteed by the fact that its authors combine theoretical dynamical investigations with observational data … It does not often happen that scientific meetings and conferences give such concrete results as those presented in this monograph. I admire the determination and the quality of the editors' and authors' work which results in so valuable a book.' M. Szydlowski, Classical Quantum Gravity'… this book is an excellent and authoritative account of the dynamical evolution of relativistic cosmologies and as such I heartily recommend it to all researchers who wish to delve deeper into the subject.' David Wands, Contemporary Physics'This book is an excellent introduction to the application of modern dynamical systems theory to the study of cosmological models, and is at an appropriate level for new graduate students.'

Cambridge University Press Essential Mathematics for Political and Social Research
Book SynopsisThis 2006 book was the first of its kind to specifically address the comprehensive introduction to the mathematical principles needed by modern social scientists. The material introduces basic mathematical principles necessary to do analytical work in the social sciences. The core purpose is to present fundamental notions in standard notation and standard language.Trade Review"Ultimately, math is a language, and Jeff Gill's new book is a comprehensive guide to its grammar, syntax, and vocabulary. The book covers essential topics for advanced social science research and will be an excellent teaching, reference, and self-study tool." --Scott Desposato, University of California, San Diego"The body of topics that Gill covers is both appropriate and desirable for any primer in mathematics. The use of substantive examples is really outstanding, and makes this a uniquely attractive commodity for political science faculty who would be teaching a mathematical research/methods class over the course of a semester." --Alan Wiseman, Ohio State UniversityTable of Contents1. The basics; 2. Analytic geometry; 3. Linear algebra: vectors, matrices and operations; 4. Linear algebra continued: matrix structure; 5. Elementary scalar calculus; 6.

Cambridge University Press Time Series Analysis for the Social Sciences
Book SynopsisTime series, or longitudinal, data are ubiquitous in the social sciences. Unfortunately, analysts often treat the time series properties of their data as a nuisance rather than a substantively meaningful dynamic process to be modeled and interpreted. Time Series Analysis for the Social Sciences provides accessible, up-to-date instruction and examples of the core methods in time series econometrics. Janet M. Box-Steffensmeier, John R. Freeman, Jon C. Pevehouse and Matthew P. Hitt cover a wide range of topics including ARIMA models, time series regression, unit-root diagnosis, vector autoregressive models, error-correction models, intervention models, fractional integration, ARCH models, structural breaks, and forecasting. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students who have taken at least one course in multivariate regression. Examples are drawn from several areas of social science, including political behavior, elections, international conflict, criminology, and comparativeTable of Contents1. Modeling social dynamics; 2. Univariate time series models; 3. Dynamic regression models; 4. Modeling the dynamics of social systems; 5. Univariate, nonstationary processes: tests and modeling; 6. Co-integration and error-correction models; 7. Selections on time series analysis; 8. Concluding thoughts for the time series analyst.

Cambridge University Press Quantitative Risk Assessment The Scientific Platform
Book SynopsisQuantitative risk assessments cannot eliminate risk, nor can they resolve trade-offs. They can, however, guide principled risk management and reduction - if the quality of assessment is high and decision makers understand how to use it. This book builds a unifying scientific framework for discussing and evaluating the quality of risk assessments and whether they are fit for purpose. Uncertainty is a central topic. In practice, uncertainties about inputs are rarely reflected in assessments, with the result that many safety measures are considered unjustified. Other topics include the meaning of a probability, the use of probability models, the use of Bayesian ideas and techniques, and the use of risk assessment in a practical decision-making context. Written for professionals, as well as graduate students and researchers, the book assumes basic probability, statistics and risk assessment methods. Examples make concepts concrete, and three extended case studies show the scientific framewTrade Review'… a timely topic, and a very interesting book … It is very detailed and academically rigorous …' Charles K. Davis, Reviews.com'The book provides a scientific framework apt to evaluate the quality of risk assessments and in particular their flexibility to specifically required purposes … The book gives useful tools for graduate students and researchers as well for professionals.' Zentralblatt MATHTable of ContentsPreface; 1. Introduction to risk management and risk assessments. Challenges; 2. Concepts and perspectives on risk; 3. Science and scientific requirements; 4. Introduction to case studies; 5. Risk assessment when the objective is accurate risk estimation; 6. Risk assessment when the objective is uncertainty descriptions; 7. Risk management and communication issues; 8. Towards a holistic approach to risk assessments; 9. Conclusions; Appendix A. Introduction to probability theory and statistical analysis; Appendix B.

Cambridge University Press Lattice Coding for Signals and Networks
Book SynopsisUnifying information theory and digital communication through the language of lattice codes, this book provides a detailed overview for students, researchers and industry practitioners. It covers classical work by leading researchers in the field of lattice codes and complementary work on dithered quantization and infinite constellations, and then introduces the more recent results on ''algebraic binning'' for side-information problems, and linear/lattice codes for networks. It shows how high dimensional lattice codes can close the gap to the optimal information theoretic solution, including the characterisation of error exponents. The solutions presented are based on lattice codes, and are therefore close to practical implementations, with many advanced setups and techniques, such as shaping, entropy-coding, side-information and multi-terminal systems. Moreover, some of the network setups shown demonstrate how lattice codes are potentially more efficient than traditional random-codingTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Lattices; 3. Figures of merit; 4. Dithering and estimation; 5. Entropy-coded quantization; 6. Infinite constellation for modulation; 7. Asymptotic goodness; 8. Nested lattices; 9. Lattice shaping; 10. Side-information problems; 11. Modulo-lattice modulation with Yuval Kochman; 12. Gaussian networks with Bobak Nazer; 13. Error exponents.
