  • Manifolds, Sheaves, and Cohomology

    by Torsten Wedhorn ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book explains techniques that are essential in almost all branches of modern geometry such as algebraic geometry, complex geometry, or non-archimedian geometry. It uses the most accessible case, real and complex manifolds, as a model. The author especially emphasizes the difference between local and global questions.Cohomology theory of sheaves is introduced and its usage is illustrated by ... Read more

  • First Steps in Differential Geometry

    Riemannian, Contact, Symplectic

    by Andrew McInerney ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Differential geometry arguably offers the smoothest transition from the standard university mathematics sequence of the first four semesters in calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations to the higher levels of abstraction and proof encountered at the upper division by mathematics majors. Today it is possible to describe differential geometry as "the study of structures on the tangent ... Read more

  • Topics in Physical Mathematics

    by Kishore Marathe ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    As many readers will know, the 20th century was a time when the fields of mathematics and the sciences were seen as two separate entities. Caused by the rapid growth of the physical sciences and an increasing abstraction in mathematical research, each party, physicists and mathematicians alike, suffered a misconception; not only of the opposition’s theoretical underpinning, but of how the two ...

  • The Schrödinger-Virasoro Algebra

    Mathematical structure and dynamical Schrödinger symmetries

    by Jérémie Unterberger, Claude Roger ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This monograph provides the first up-to-date and self-contained presentation of a recently discovered mathematical structure—the Schrödinger-Virasoro algebra. Just as Poincaré invariance or conformal (Virasoro) invariance play a key rôle in understanding, respectively, elementary particles and two-dimensional equilibrium statistical physics, this algebra of non-relativistic conformal symmetries ...

    In Memory of Friedrich Hirzebruch

    Edited by Werner Ballmann, Gerd Faltings, Don Zagier, Christian Blohmann, Peter Teichner ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This volume contains selected papers authored by speakers and participants of the 2013 Arbeitstagung, held at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in Bonn, Germany, from May 22-28. The 2013 meeting (and this resulting proceedings) was dedicated to the memory of Friedrich Hirzebruch, who passed away on May 27, 2012. Hirzebruch organized the first Arbeitstagung in 1957 with a unique concept that ... Read more

  • Representation Theory

    A Homological Algebra Point of View

    by Alexander Zimmermann ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Introducing the representation theory of groups and finite dimensional algebras, first studying basic non-commutative ring theory, this book covers the necessary background on elementary homological algebra and representations of groups up to block theory. It further discusses vertices, defect groups, Green and Brauer correspondences and Clifford theory. Whenever possible the statements are ... Read more

  • Topological Galois Theory

    Solvability and Unsolvability of Equations in Finite Terms

    by Askold Khovanskii ...
    Translated by Vladlen Timorin, Valentina Kiritchenko, Liudmyla Kadets ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This book provides a detailed and largely self-contained description of various classical and new results on solvability and unsolvability of equations in explicit form. In particular, it offers a complete exposition of the relatively new area of topological Galois theory, initiated by the author. Applications of Galois theory to solvability of algebraic equations by radicals, basics of Picard ... Read more

  • Finitely Generated Abelian Groups and Similarity of Matrices over a Field

    by Christopher Norman ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    At first sight, finitely generated abelian groups and canonical forms of matrices appear to have little in common. However, reduction to Smith normal form, named after its originator H.J.S.Smith in 1861, is a matrix version of the Euclidean algorithm and is exactly what the theory requires in both cases. Starting with matrices over the integers, Part 1 of this book provides a measured introduction ... Read more

  • Symmetric Spaces and the Kashiwara-Vergne Method

    by François Rouvière ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    Gathering and updating results scattered in journal articles over thirty years, this self-contained monograph gives a comprehensive introduction to the subject. Its goal is to: - motivate and explain the method for general Lie groups, reducing the proof of deep results in invariant analysis to the verification of two formal Lie bracket identities related to the Campbell-Hausdorff formula (the ...

  • Representation Theory and Harmonic Analysis of Wreath Products of Finite Groups

    by Tullio Ceccherini-Silberstein, Fabio Scarabotti, Filippo Tolli ...
    Series Book 410 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    This book presents an introduction to the representation theory of wreath products of finite groups and harmonic analysis on the corresponding homogeneous spaces. The reader will find a detailed description of the theory of induced representations and Clifford theory, focusing on a general formulation of the little group method. This provides essential tools for the determination of all ... Read more

  • Mathematical Concepts

    by Jürgen Jost ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    The main intention of this book is to describe and develop the conceptual, structural and abstract thinking of mathematics. Specific mathematical structures are used to illustrate the conceptual approach; providing a deeper insight into mutual relationships and abstract common features. These ideas are carefully motivated, explained and illustrated by examples so that many of the more technical ... Read more

  • Clifford Algebras and Lie Theory

    by Eckhard Meinrenken ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    This monograph provides an introduction to the theory of Clifford algebras, with an emphasis on its connections with the theory of Lie groups and Lie algebras. The book starts with a detailed presentation of the main results on symmetric bilinear forms and Clifford algebras. It develops the spin groups and the spin representation, culminating in Cartan’s famous triality automorphism for the group ... Read more
