Cambridge University Press Elliptic Curves Function Theory Geometry Arithmetic
Book SynopsisThe subject of elliptic curves is one of the jewels of nineteenth-century mathematics, originated by Abel, Gauss, Jacobi, and Legendre. This 1997 book presents an introductory account of the subject in the style of the original discoverers, with references to and comments about more recent and modern developments. It combines three of the fundamental themes of mathematics: complex function theory, geometry, and arithmetic. After an informal preparatory chapter, the book follows an historical path, beginning with the work of Abel and Gauss on elliptic integrals and elliptic functions. This is followed by chapters on theta functions, modular groups and modular functions, the quintic, the imaginary quadratic field, and on elliptic curves. Requiring only a first acquaintance with complex function theory, this book is an ideal introduction to the subject for graduate students and researchers in mathematics and physics, with many exercises with hints scattered throughout the text.Trade Review'The book is a welcome extension of the existing literature about this important topic … It is recommended to students of mathematics and physics interested in the applications of the theory and the theory itself.' European Mathematical Society'With an easy mind the reviewer can recommend this book to those who want to become acquainted with the subject and to those who look for a book which can serve as guide for a course on the subject … the exemplary way in which Elliptic Curves is written, made reviewing a pleasure.' Niew Archief voor WiskundeTable of Contents1. First ideas: complex manifolds, Riemann surfaces, and projective curves; 2. Elliptic functions and elliptic integrals; 3. Theta functions; 4.

Cambridge University Press A First Course in Mathematical Analysis
Book SynopsisMathematical Analysis (often called Advanced Calculus) is generally found by students to be one of their hardest courses in Mathematics. This text uses the so-called sequential approach to continuity, differentiability and integration to make it easier to understand the subject.Topics that are generally glossed over in the standard Calculus courses are given careful study here. For example, what exactly is a 'continuous' function? And how exactly can one give a careful definition of 'integral'? The latter question is often one of the mysterious points in a Calculus course - and it is quite difficult to give a rigorous treatment of integration! The text has a large number of diagrams and helpful margin notes; and uses many graded examples and exercises, often with complete solutions, to guide students through the tricky points. It is suitable for self-study or use in parallel with a standard university course on the subject.Table of ContentsPreface; Introduction: calculus and analysis; 1. Numbers; 2. Sequences; 3.

Cambridge University Press The Integral An Easy Approach after Kurzweil and Henstock 14 Australian Mathematical Society Lecture Series Series Number 14
Book SynopsisIntegration has a long history: its roots can be traced as far back as the ancient Greeks. The first genuinely rigorous definition of an integral was that given by Riemann, and further (more general, and so more useful) definitions have since been given by Lebesgue, Denjoy, Perron, Kurzweil and Henstock, and this culminated in the work of McShane. This textbook provides an introduction to this theory, and it presents a unified yet elementary approach that is suitable for beginning graduate and final year undergraduate students.Trade Review'… already it is worthy of a place in our standard curriculum … The book of Lee and Vyborny serves well as an introduction and reference for anyone interested in this topic.' J. Alan Alewine and Eric Schechter, American Mathematical Monthly'… the authors do an excellent job of presenting their material. The book is written with clarity and enthusiasm.'

Cambridge University Press Special Functions 71 Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications Series Number 71
Book SynopsisSpecial functions, natural generalizations of the elementary functions, have been studied for centuries. The greatest mathematicians, among them Euler, Gauss, Legendre, Eisenstein, Riemann, and Ramanujan, have laid the foundations for this beautiful and useful area of mathematics. This treatise presents an overview of special functions, focusing primarily on hypergeometric functions and the associated hypergeometric series, including Bessel functions and classical orthogonal polynomials, using the basic building block of the gamma function. In addition to relatively new work on gamma and beta functions, such as Selberg's multidimensional integrals, many important but relatively unknown nineteenth century results are included. Other topics include q-extensions of beta integrals and of hypergeometric series, Bailey chains, spherical harmonics, and applications to combinatorial problems. The authors provide organizing ideas, motivation, and historical background for the study and applicaTrade Review'Occasionally there is published a mathematics book that one is compelled to describe as, well, let us say, special. Special Functions is certainly one of those rare books. … this treatise … should become a classic. Every student, user, and researcher in analysis will want to have it close at hand as she/he works.' The Mathematical Intelligencer' … the material is written in an excellent manner … I recommend this book warmly as a rich source of information to everybody who is interested in 'Special Functions'.' Zentralblatt MATH' … this book contains a wealth of fascinating material which is presented in a user-friendly way. If you want to extend your knowledge of special functions, this is a good place to start. Even if your interests are in number theory or combinatorics, there is something for you too … the book can be warmly recommended and should be in all good libraries.' Adam McBride, The Mathematical Gazette' … it comes into the range of affordable books that you want to (and probably should have on your desk'. Jean Mawhin, Bulletin of the Belgian Mathematical Society'The book is full of beautiful and interesting formulae, as was always the case with mathematics centred around special functions.

Cambridge University Press Harmonic Maps Conservation Laws and Moving Frames 150 Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics Series Number 150
Book SynopsisThe author presents an accessible and self-contained introduction to harmonic map theory and its analytical aspects, covering recent developments in the regularity theory of weakly harmonic maps. The book begins by introducing these concepts, stressing the interplay between geometry, the role of symmetries and weak solutions. The reader is then presented with a guided tour into the theory of completely integrable systems for harmonic maps, followed by two chapters devoted to recent results on the regularity of weak solutions. A self-contained presentation of 'exotic' functional spaces from the theory of harmonic analysis is given and these tools are then used for proving regularity results. The importance of conservation laws is stressed and the concept of a 'Coulomb moving frame' is explained in detail. The book ends with further applications and illustrations of Coulomb moving frames to the theory of surfaces.Trade Review'The book is very well written and it contains truly beautiful geometrical analysis. It also contains a quick, direct introduction to the current research.' EMS NewsletterTable of ContentsPreface; Introduction; Acknowledgements; Notations; 1. Geometric and analytic setting; 2.

Cambridge University Press Basic Hypergeometric Series 96 Encyclopedia of Mathematics and its Applications Series Number 96
Book SynopsisThis revised and expanded new edition will continue to meet the needs for an authoritative, up-to-date, self contained and comprehensive account of the rapidly growing field of basic hypergeometric series, or q-series. Some sections and exercises have been added and the bibliography has been revised to maintain its comprehensiveness.Trade Review'I love this book! It is great! This really is a book you can learn the subject from. The plentiful exercises vary from elementary to challenging with lots of each. Congratulations and thanks are due the authors.' George Andrews, American Math. Monthly'The book is remarkable in many ways. It is comprehensive, at least, comprehensive to date. As is typical of most works on the subject, it is clearly and carefully written. While no book can conceivably incorporate all the important results, particularly those obtained in the last decade, many of them are included as exercises. And this is the feature all other books on the subject lack: a set of exercises. Each chapter is topped off by a challenging series of problems which lead the reader to recreate recent discoveries. Anyone who works even a small percentage of them will soon be an expert. A generous series of historical notes concludes each chapter. The book is user friendly in every respect. The book has two excellent Appendices which summarize the identities and summation formulas derived in the text, an exhaustive 25 page list of references, and a nontrivial index. Now anyone working in combinatorics, group representation theory, coding theory, and related fields will want to own it. Many physicists will find it bears directly on matters of interest to them. Computer scientists may find the book increasingly timely. Those who have refrained from entering the field because of the tortuous notation can now have untroubled access to its mysteries. I say, come in, the water's fine.' Jet Wimp, SIAM Review'This is an excellent and very informative book on the subject. After a gentle introduction to basic series and some special cases (such as the 'q'-binomial theorem) the authors bring the reader up to the latest results on the general theory and its extensions, many such results are due to them. The exercises are utilized to include results that found no room in the detailed treatment. In addition to these exercises, notes at the end of each chapter point the reader to related topics. This alone makes the book an invaluable reference to those who are interested in basic series.' Waleed A. Al-Salam, Math. Reviews'Thus the present book, devoted to 'q'-hypergeometric series, appears at a very timely moment. The result is excellent. The first chapter presents a clear and elementary introduction to the subject. At the end of the book there are excellent indices and compendia of formulas.' Tom H.

Cambridge University Press Linear Operators and their Spectra 106 Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics Series Number 106
Book SynopsisThis authoritative text presents a broad view of the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint linear operators and contains many illustrative examples and exercises. Topics discussed include Fredholm theory, Hilbert-Schmidt and trace class operators, one-parameter semigroups, perturbations of their generators and a thorough account of the new theory of pseudospectra.Trade Review'One will look in vain for the notions of pseudospectrum, hull and numerical range in standard functional analysis texts, so Davies has done us a great service by explaining them through beautiful theorems and examples. More generally, his book is the first to offer a comprehensive survey of the spectral theory of non-self-adjoint operators, including both 'classical' and 'cutting edge' results, showing that this theory holds as much promise as the self-adjoint theory in both foundations and application. The scope of the book is truly enormous and is only partly reflected by listing the chapter titles … [a] beautiful volume, which has no competitors.'
