Book SynopsisCalculus is the key to much of modern science and engineering. It is the mathematical method for the analysis of things that change, and since in the natural world we are surrounded by change, the development of calculus was a huge breakthrough in the history of mathematics. But it is also something of a mathematical adventure, largely because of the way infinity enters at virtually every twist and turn...In The Calculus Story David Acheson presents a wide-ranging picture of calculus and its applications, from ancient Greece right up to the present day. Drawing on their original writings, he introduces the people who helped to build our understanding of calculus. With a step by step treatment, he demonstrates how to start doing calculus, from the very beginning.Trade ReviewA masterpiece... Packed with insights, both historical and mathematical. * Steven Strogatz, professor of mathematics, Cornell University, and author of The Joy of X and Infinite Powers *This is the book on calculus I wish I'd written. It's a beautifully simple, friendly guide that's bursting at the seams with glorious, persuasive explanations as to why calculus is one of the most powerful ideas ever conceived by mankind. * Hannah Fry, Broadcaster, lecturer, and author of The Mathematics of Love *A splendid little book ... accessible to a very wide audience ... The book is highly recommended. * Adam McBride, Mathematical Gazette *A remarkably expansive and frictionless tour of mathematical history and theory... The calculus story is no textbook... It is the antithesis of the dreary way calculus is too often taught at schools and universities... a supplement for a high school student, the parents of such a student, or an adult wishing to reacquaint herself painlessly with material long forgotten. * Henrik Latter, Plus *This is a very readable book... It offers an illuminating perspective on calculus... A very enjoyable book for the layperson or the user of calculus. * Alex Chaplin, School Science Review *Wish I'd had it as a maths student! * Tim Harford, Undercover Economist *Another wonderful book. * Mark McCartney, LMS Newsletter *A very clear explanation of calculus ([I] wish I'd had it as a maths student!) along with some history of the subject. * Tim Harford, The Undercover Economist *Superb introduction to calculus that should be in every young mathematician's bookcase. * Peter Ransom, Symmetry Plus *Don't panic if your mathematical muscles appear to have withered away (or you never truly cracked differentiation), David Acheson's The Calculus Story could be just the thing... A roller-coaster read, constantly climbing and diving through the wonderful world of calculus... There's something for everyone, from the inexperienced integrator to the seasoned solver of equations... His enthusiasm for calculus is almost palpable. * Timothy Revell, New Scientist *Dazzling. * Matthew Reisz, Times Higher Education *I would have killed for this book when I was 13 ... he [David Acheson] belongs in the league of great authors of popular works on mathematics. * George Matthews, Mathematics Today *A worthy successor to 1089 and All That. * Adhemar Bult heel, European Mathematical Society *A simple guide to calculus - where it came from, how it works, what it's good for, and where it went. Brief, informative, charming, and a model of clarity. Ideal motivation for beginners, and recommended to anyone who wonders what the subject is about. * Ian Stewart, author of Seventeen Equations that Changed the World *This wide-ranging picture of calculus and its applications, from antiquity to the present, reveals the method as both the key to much of modern science and engineering, and something of a mathematical adventure. * Science *Acheson offers a much-needed short account of the big picture of calculus as a whole, illustrated with examples and reproductions from historic publications [...] Short pages, many illustrations, and a sense of telling a big story contribute to the success of the book. * Paul J. Campbell, Mathematical Magazine *Table of ContentsREFERENCES; FURTHER READING; INDEX

Book SynopsisDespite its seemingly deterministic nature, the study of whole numbers, especially prime numbers, has many interactions with probability theory, the theory of random processes and events. This surprising connection was first discovered around 1920, but in recent years the links have become much deeper and better understood. Aimed at beginning graduate students, this textbook is the first to explain some of the most modern parts of the story. Such topics include the Chebychev bias, universality of the Riemann zeta function, exponential sums and the bewitching shapes known as Kloosterman paths. Emphasis is given throughout to probabilistic ideas in the arguments, not just the final statements, and the focus is on key examples over technicalities. The book develops probabilistic number theory from scratch, with short appendices summarizing the most important background results from number theory, analysis and probability, making it a readable and incisive introduction to this beautiful arTrade Review'an excellent resource for someone trying to enter the field of probabilistic number theory' Bookshelf by Notices of the American Mathematical Society'The book contains many exercises and three appendices presenting the material from analysis, probability and number theory that is used. Certainly the book is a good read for a mathematicians interested in the interaction between probability theory and number theory. The techniques used in the book appear quite advanced to us, so we would recommend the book for students at a graduate but not at an undergraduate level.'

Book SynopsisA First Course in Ergodic Theory provides readers with an introductory course in Ergodic Theory. This textbook has been developed from the authorsâ own notes on the subject, which they have been teaching since the 1990s. Over the years they have added topics, theorems, examples and explanations from various sources. The result is a book that is easy to teach from and easy to learn from â designed to require only minimal prerequisites.Features Suitable for readers with only a basic knowledge of measure theory, some topology and a very basic knowledge of functional analysis Perfect as the primary textbook for a course in Ergodic Theory Examples are described and are studied in detail when new properties are presented. Trade Review"A First Course in Ergodic Theory by Dajani and Kalle provides not only a crystal clear introduction to the core of ergodic theory, but also goes down paths previously accessible only through the research literature. The book covers ergodic theorems, invariant measures, entropy and the variational principle. But it also covers piecewise monotone interval maps, Perron-Frobenius operators, natural extensions, and the useful lemma of Knopp. Another theme is the theory of conservative nonsingular and infinite measure preserving transformations. All of this is illustrated via numerous examples from (not necessarily regular) continued fractions and other number expansions, the authors’ specialty. Throughout the book, the proofs patiently explain details often ignored. An excellent appendix provides a reference to needed results from topology, measure theory, probability and functional analysis."– E. Arthur (Robbie) Robinson, Jr., Professor of Mathematics at George Washington University and co-author of The Mathematics of Politics"This textbook is a delightful introduction to Ergodic Theory. It starts at a basic level, giving intuitive explanations and motivations, and concludes with more advanced topics such as variational principle and infinite ergodic theory. The style is very crisp, and many of the results are proved. Examples which are primarily taken from number theory run as a red thread through the manuscript. This makes this textbook quite different from other classic textbooks on the subject. It’s very easy to build an advanced UG or a postgraduate lecture course around this material."– Sebastian van Strien, Imperial College LondonTable of ContentsPreface. Author Bios. 1.

Book SynopsisThis well-respected book introduces readers to the theory and application of modern numerical approximation techniques. Providing an accessible treatment that only requires a calculus prerequisite, the authors explain how, why, and when approximation techniques can be expected to work-and why, in some situations, they fail. A wealth of examples and exercises develop readers' intuition, and demonstrate the subject's practical applications to important everyday problems in math, computing, engineering, and physical science disciplines. Three decades after it was first published, Burden, Faires, and Burden's NUMERICAL ANALYSIS remains the definitive introduction to a vital and practical subject.Table of Contents1.

Book SynopsisThis classic work has been a unique resource for thousands of mathematicians, scientists and engineers since its first appearance in 1902. Never out of print, its continuing value lies in its thorough and exhaustive treatment of special functions of mathematical physics and the analysis of differential equations from which they emerge. The book also is of historical value as it was the first book in English to introduce the then modern methods of complex analysis. This fifth edition preserves the style and content of the original, but it has been supplemented with more recent results and references where appropriate. All the formulas have been checked and many corrections made. A complete bibliographical search has been conducted to present the references in modern form for ease of use. A new foreword by Professor S.J. Patterson sketches the circumstances of the book''s genesis and explains the reasons for its longevity. A welcome addition to any mathematician''s bookshelf, this will aTrade Review'Generations of mathematicians have referred to W&W, as it has been affectionately called, for information that is difficult to locate elsewhere, in particular, on special functions. This improved new edition will enable future generations to access and learn from one of the great classical texts in the mathematical literature. My personal references to W&W are legion; the cover of my worn copy has long been separated from the text because of constant use.' Bruce C. Berndt, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign'Many of us who often use special functions revere the classics of complex analysis from the early 20th century. The names of Copson, MacRobert and Titchmarsh come to mind. However, the grandfather, indeed the overarching prototype, for most of these books is the one always referred to as "Whittaker and Watson." Fortunately for the world of mathematics, Victor Moll has presided over this wonderful fifth edition. Victor has provided an exceptionally valuable introduction that provides summaries of each chapter with ties to modern work. This new edition makes it easier for all to use the immense resources therein. Thank you, Victor! Thank you, Cambridge University Press.'

Book SynopsisThrough four editions this popular textbook attracted a loyal readership and widespread use. Students find the book to be concise, accessible, and complete. Instructors find the book to be clear, authoritative, and dependable. The primary goal of this new edition remains the same as in previous editions. It is to make real analysis relevant and accessible to a broad audience of students with diverse backgrounds while also maintaining the integrity of the course. This text aims to be the generational touchstone for the subject and the go-to text for developing young scientists. This new edition continues the effort to make the book accessible to a broader audience. Many students who take a real analysis course do not have the ideal background. The new edition offers chapters on background material like set theory, logic, and methods of proof. The more advanced material in the book is made more apparent.This new edition offers a new chapter on metric spaces and their applications. Metric spaces are important in many parts of the mathematical sciences, including data mining, web searching, and classification of images. The author also revised the material on sequences and series adding examples and exercises that compare convergence tests and give additional tests.The text includes rare topics such as wavelets and applications to differential equations. The level of difficulty moves slowly, becoming more sophisticated in later chapters. Students have commented on the progression as a favorite aspect of the textbook.The author is perhaps the most prolific expositor of upper division mathematics. With over seventy books in print, thousands of students have been taught and learned from his books.

Book SynopsisThis book convenes a collection of carefully selected problems in mathematical analysis, crafted to achieve maximum synergy between analytic geometry and algebra and favoring mathematical creativity in contrast to mere repetitive techniques. With eight chapters, this work guides the student through the basic principles of the subject, with a level of complexity that requires good use of imagination.In this work, all the fundamental concepts seen in a first-year Calculus course are covered. Problems touch on topics like inequalities, elementary point-set topology, limits of real-valued functions, differentiation, classical theorems of differential calculus (Rolle, Lagrange, Cauchy, and l’Hospital), graphs of functions, and Riemann integrals and antiderivatives. Every chapter starts with a theoretical background, in which relevant definitions and theorems are provided; then, related problems are presented. Formalism is kept at a minimum, and solutions can be found at the end of each chapter.Instructors and students of Mathematical Analysis, Calculus and Advanced Calculus aimed at first-year undergraduates in Mathematics, Physics and Engineering courses can greatly benefit from this book, which can also serve as a rich supplement to any traditional textbook on these subjects as well.Trade Review“This reviewer warmly welcomes the publication of this nice selection of problems and would recommend its use as a complimentary reading for analysis and calculus courses. … The book under review nicely complements existing literature on the subject; it is a stimulating reading requiring, as suggested by the authors, a bit of critical reflection.” (Svitlana P. Rogovchenko, zbMATH 1494.00003, 2022)“A sequence of a traditional textbook for an undergraduate calculus course. From this standpoint, this book can be used as a supplement to any conventional calculus text. … It is well known that students struggle with inducing abstract math concepts to gain insight into behavior in real-world phenomena to understand better those behaviors; including such examples is seen as a potential asset.” (Andrzej Sokolowski, MAA Reviews, August 1, 2022)Table of ContentsSummary of basic theory of inequalities.- Sets, sequences, functions.- Limits of functions, continuity.- Differentiation.- Classical theorems of differential calculus.- Monotonicity, concavity, minima, maxima, inflection points.- Graphs of functions.- Integrals.

Book SynopsisThis is part two of a two-volume introduction to real analysis and is intended for honours undergraduates who have already been exposed to calculus. The emphasis is on rigour and on foundations. The material starts at the very beginning--the construction of the number systems and set theory--then goes on to the basics of analysis (limits, series, continuity, differentiation, Riemann integration), through to power series, several variable calculus and Fourier analysis, and finally to the Lebesgue integral. These are almost entirely set in the concrete setting of the real line and Euclidean spaces, although there is some material on abstract metric and topological spaces. There are also appendices on mathematical logic and the decimal system. The entire text (omitting some less central topics) can be taught in two quarters of twenty-five to thirty lectures each.The course material is deeply intertwined with the exercises, as it is intended that the student actively learn the material (and practice thinking and writing rigorously) by proving several of the key results in the theory.The fourth edition incorporates a large number of additional corrections reported since the release of the third edition, as well as some additional new exercises.

Book SynopsisProfessor Zygmund's Trigonometric Series, first published in Warsaw in 1935, established itself as a classic. It presented a concise account of the main results then known, but was on a scale which limited the amount of detailed discussion possible. A greatly enlarged second edition published by Cambridge in two volumes in 1959 took full account of developments in trigonometric series, Fourier series and related branches of pure mathematics since the publication of the original edition. The two volumes are here bound together with a foreword from Robert Fefferman outlining the significance of this text. Volume I, containing the completely rewritten material of the original work, deals with trigonometric series and Fourier series. Volume II provides much material previously unpublished in book form.Trade Review'... much material previously unpublished in book form.' Zentralblatt MATHTable of ContentsPart I: 1.

Book SynopsisThis concise textbook introduces calculus students to power series through an informal and captivating narrative that avoids formal proofs but emphasizes understanding the fundamental ideas. Power series—and infinite series in general—are a fundamental tool of pure and applied mathematics. The problems focus on ideas, applications, and creative thinking instead of being repetitive and procedural. Calculus is about functions, so the book turns on two fundamental ideas: using polynomials to approximate a function and representing a function in terms of simpler functions. The derivative is reinterpreted in terms of linear approximations, which then leads to Taylor polynomials and the question of convergence. Enough of the theory of convergence is developed to allow a more complete understanding of power series and their applications. A final chapter looks at the distant horizon and discusses other kinds of series representations. SageMath, a free open-source mathematics software system, is used throughout to do computations, provide examples, and create many graphs. While most problems do not require SageMath, students are encouraged to use it where appropriate. An instructor’s guide with solutions to all the problems is available. The book is intended as a supplementary textbook for calculus courses; lecturers and instructors will find innovative and engaging ways to teach this topic. The informal and conversational tone make the book useful to any student seeking to understand this essential aspect of analysis.Table of Contents- To the reader.- Getting close with lines.- Getting closer with polynomials.- Going all the way: Convergence.- Power series.- Distant mountains.- Appendix A: SageMath: A (very) short introduction.- Appendix B: Why I do it this way.- Bibliography.

Book SynopsisAcutely aware of the need for rigor, the student is much better prepared to understand what constitutes a proper mathematical proof and how to write one.Fifteen years of classroom experience with the first edition of Understanding Analysis have solidified and refined the central narrative of the second edition.Trade Review“The choice of topics is a happy combination of the essential and the interesting, all truly leading to an understanding of what analysis is and what questions it addresses, aided by the author’s extraordinarily lucid exposition. … Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates.” (D. Robbins, Choice, Vol. 53 (2), October, 2015)“This is the second edition of a text for an undergraduate course in single-variable real analysis. … The topics covered in this book are the ones that have, by now, become standard for a one-semester undergraduate real analysis course … . Overall, this book represents, to my mind, the gold standard among single-variable undergraduate analysis texts.” (Mark Hunacek, MAA Reviews, June, 2015)“This is a dangerous book. Understanding Analysis is so well-written and the development of the theory so well-motivated that exposing students to it could well lead them to expect such excellence in all their textbooks. … Understanding Analysis is perfectly titled; if your students read it, that’s what’s going to happen. This terrific book will become the text of choice for the single-variable introductory analysis course; take a look at it next time you’re preparing that class.”— Steve Kennedy, MAA Reviews“Each chapter begins with a discussion section and ends with an epilogue. The discussion serves to motivate the content of the chapter while the epilogue points tantalisingly to more advanced topics. … I wish I had written this book! The development of the subject follows the tried-and-true path, but the presentation is engaging and challenging. Abbott focuses attention immediately on the topics which make analysis fascinating … and makes them accessible to an inexperienced audience.”— Scott Sciffer, The Australian Mathematical Society Gazette Table of ContentsPreface.- 1 The Real Numbers.- 2 Sequences and Series.- 3 Basic Topology of R.- 4 Functional Limits and Continuity.- 5 The Derivative.- 6 Sequences and Series of Functions.- 7 The Riemann Integral.- 8 Additional Topics.- Bibliography.- Index.

The statistical and mathematical tools facilitate a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of a useful range of advanced risk-management concepts and models, while the focus on aggregate risk enhances the publication's value to banking and insurance supervisors."--Hans Blommestein, Financial Regulator Praise for the previous edition: "This book provides a framework and a useful toolkit for analysis of a wide variety of risk management problems. Common pitfalls are pointed out, and mathematical sophistication is used in pursuit of useful and usable solutions. Every financial institution has a risk management department that looks at aggregated portfolio-wide risks on longer time scales, and at risk exposure to large, or extreme, market movements. Risk managers are always on the lookout for good techniques to help them do their jobs. This very good book provides these techniques and addresses an important, and under-developed, area of practical research."--Martin Baxter, Nomura International

Book SynopsisVery Short Introductions: Brilliant, sharp, inspiringThe 17th-century calculus of Newton and Leibniz was built on shaky foundations, and it wasn''t until the 18th and 19th centuries that mathematicians--especially Bolzano, Cauchy, and Weierstrass--began to establish a rigorous basis for the subject. The resulting discipline is now known to mathematicians as analysis.This book, aimed at readers with some grounding in mathematics, describes the nascent evolution of mathematical analysis, its development as a subject in its own right, and its wide-ranging applications in mathematics and science, modelling reality from acoustics to fluid dynamics, from biological systems to quantum theory.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.Table of ContentsAcknowledgements 1: Taming Infinity 2: All change... 3: Should I believe my computer? 4: Dimensions aplenty 5: I'll name that tune in... 6: Putting the i in analysis 7: But there's more...

Book SynopsisCalculus is important for first-year undergraduate students pursuing mathematics, physics, economics, engineering, and other disciplines where mathematics plays a significant role. The book provides a thorough reintroduction to calculus with an emphasis on logical development arising out of geometric intuition. The author has restructured the subject matter in the book by using Tarski''s version of the completeness axiom, introducing integration before differentiation and limits, and emphasizing benefits of monotonicity before continuity. The standard transcendental functions are developed early in a rigorous manner and the monotonicity theorem is proved before the mean value theorem. Each concept is supported by diverse exercises which will help the reader to understand applications and take them nearer to real and complex analysis.Table of ContentsIntroduction; 1. Real Numbers and Functions; 2. Integration; 3. Limits and Continuity; 4. Differentiation; 5. Techniques of Integration; 6. Mean Value Theorems and Applications; 7. Sequences and Series; 8.

Book SynopsisThis book covers the statistical mechanics approach to computational solution of inverse problems, an innovative area of current research with very promising numerical results.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews: "The book is devoted to the development of the statistical approach to inverse problems … . The content is written clearly and without citations in the main text. Every chapter has a section called ‘Notes and comments’ where the citations and further reading, as well as brief comments on more advanced topics, are provided. The book is aimed at postgraduate students … . The book also will be of interest for many researchers and scientists working in the area of image processing." (Tzvetan Semerdjiev, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1068, 2005) "Inverse problems are usually ill-posed in the sense that a solution need not exist, need not be unique, and depends in a discontinuous way on the data … . there have been two quite separate communities dealing with such problems, one basing their methods mainly on functional analysis, the other one on statistics. … several attempts have been made to bridge the gap between these two groups. The book under review … is a further, quite successful attempt in this direction." (Heinz W.
