By Krupka D., et al. (eds.)

This booklet is a suite of survey articles in a extensive box of the geometrical concept of the calculus of adaptations and its functions in research, geometry and physics. it's a commemorative quantity to rejoice the sixty-fifth birthday of Professor Krupa, one of many founders of recent geometric variational concept, and a huge contributor to this subject and its purposes during the last thirty-five years. the entire authors invited to give a contribution to this quantity have confirmed excessive reputations of their box. The booklet will completely offer a number of very important effects, ideas and functions which are frequently on hand in simple terms via consulting unique papers in lots of various journals. will probably be of curiosity to researchers in variational calculus, mathematical physics and the opposite comparable components of differential equations, usual operators and geometric constructions. additionally, it's going to develop into an enormous resource of present examine for doctoral scholars and postdoctorals in those fields.

Matrix Information Geometry

-Presents advances in matrix and tensor facts processing within the area of sign, picture and knowledge processing
-Written through specialists within the components of theoretical arithmetic or engineering sciences
-Discusses power functions in sensor and cognitive platforms engineering

This ebook is an end result of the Indo-French Workshop on Matrix info Geometries (MIG): purposes in Sensor and Cognitive platforms Engineering, which was once held in Ecole Polytechnique and Thales learn and expertise heart, Palaiseau, France, in February 23-25, 2011. The workshop used to be generously funded by means of the Indo-French Centre for the merchandising of complicated study (IFCPAR). through 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 cutting-edge chapters were assembled during this quantity. All articles have been completely peer-reviewed and better, in keeping with the feedback of the foreign referees. The 17 contributions awarded are equipped in 3 components: (1) cutting-edge surveys & unique matrix conception paintings, (2) complicated matrix thought for radar processing, and (3) Matrix-based sign processing purposes.

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 put up this vintage ebook as a part of our vast vintage Library assortment. the various books in our assortment were out of print for many years, and accordingly haven't been obtainable to most people. the purpose of our publishing application is to facilitate fast entry to this great 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 booklet matters parts of ergodic conception which are now being intensively constructed. the themes contain entropy idea (with emphasis on dynamical platforms with multi-dimensional time), parts of the renormalization staff process within the concept of dynamical platforms, splitting of separatrices, and a few difficulties regarding the idea of hyperbolic dynamical platforms.

If Θλ happens to be a global differential form, we speak about the (higher-order) Poincar´e–Cartan form associated to the Lagrangian λ, or, about the Poincar´e–Cartan equivalent of λ. Equipped with Lepage n-forms, we are able to write down the intrinsic first variation formula.
