By Nicolas Bergeron

This textual content is an advent to the spectral conception of the Laplacian on compact or finite region hyperbolic surfaces. For a few of these surfaces, referred to as “arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces”, the eigenfunctions are of mathematics nature, and one might use analytic instruments in addition to strong tools in quantity conception to review them.

After an advent to the hyperbolic geometry of surfaces, with a distinct emphasis on these of mathematics kind, after which an creation to spectral analytic tools at the Laplace operator on those surfaces, the writer develops the analogy among geometry (closed geodesics) and mathematics (prime numbers) in proving the Selberg hint formulation. in addition to very important quantity theoretic functions, the writer shows purposes of those instruments to the spectral facts of the Laplacian and the quantum targeted ergodicity estate. The latter refers back to the mathematics quantum distinct ergodicity theorem, lately proved through Elon Lindenstrauss.

The fruit of numerous graduate point classes at Orsay and Jussieu, The Spectrum of Hyperbolic Surfaces permits the reader to check an array of classical effects after which to be led in the direction of very lively components in sleek mathematics.

Matrix Information Geometry

-Presents advances in matrix and tensor information processing within the area of sign, photo and knowledge processing
-Written through specialists within the parts of theoretical arithmetic or engineering sciences
-Discusses power functions in sensor and cognitive structures engineering

This e-book is an consequence of the Indo-French Workshop on Matrix info Geometries (MIG): functions in Sensor and Cognitive structures Engineering, which used to be held in Ecole Polytechnique and Thales study and expertise heart, Palaiseau, France, in February 23-25, 2011. The workshop used to be generously funded via the Indo-French Centre for the merchandising of complicated examine (IFCPAR). throughout the occasion, 22 popular invited french or indian audio system gave lectures on their components of craftsmanship in the box of matrix research or processing. From those talks, a complete of 17 unique contribution or state of the art chapters were assembled during this quantity. All articles have been completely peer-reviewed and better, in accordance with the feedback of the overseas referees. The 17 contributions provided are prepared in 3 components: (1) state of the art surveys & unique matrix concept paintings, (2) complex matrix conception for radar processing, and (3) Matrix-based sign processing functions.

Konvexe Analysis

Der Autor beabsichtigt, mit dem vorliegenden Lehrbuch eine gründliche Einführung in die Theorie der konvexen Mengen und der konvexen Funk­ tionen zu geben. Das Buch ist aus einer Folge von drei in den Jahren 1971 bis 1973 an der Eidgenössischen Technischen Hochschule in Zürich gehaltenen Vorlesungen hervorgegangen.

A treatise on the geometry of the circle and some extensions to conic sections by the method of reciprocation, with numerous examples.

Leopold is extremely joyful to submit this vintage booklet as a part of our vast vintage Library assortment. a few of the books in our assortment were out of print for many years, and for that reason haven't been obtainable to most people. the purpose of our publishing application is to facilitate swift entry to this big reservoir of literature, and our view is this is an important literary paintings, which merits to be introduced again into print after many a long time.

Topics in Ergodic Theory.

This e-book issues parts of ergodic idea which are now being intensively constructed. the subjects contain entropy concept (with emphasis on dynamical platforms with multi-dimensional time), components of the renormalization crew procedure within the idea of dynamical structures, splitting of separatrices, and a few difficulties on the topic of the idea of hyperbolic dynamical platforms.
