Focuses on heat equations associated with non self-adjoint uniformly elliptic operators. This book provides introductory materials for those unfamiliar with the underlying mathematics and background needed to understand the properties of heat equations. It then treats Lp properties of solutions to a wide class of heat equations.

Random matrix theory, both as an application and as a theory, has evolved rapidly over the years. This title chronicles these developments, emphasizing log-gases as a physical picture. It covers topics such as beta ensembles and Jack polynomials. It develops the application and theory of Gaussian and circular ensembles of random matrix theory.

Seeks to describe the development in recent decades of sieve methods able to detect prime numbers. This work covers topics such as; primes in short intervals, the greatest prime factor of the sequence of shifted primes, Goldbach numbers in short intervals, the distribution of Gaussian primes, and the recent work of John Friedlander, and Iwaniec.

By studying the degeneration of abelian varieties with PEL structures, this book explains the compactifications of smooth integral models of all PEL-type Shimura varieties, providing the logical foundation for several exciting recent developments. The book is designed to be accessible to graduate students who have an understanding of schemes and ab

Gives an introduction to the theory of symmetric Markov processes and symmetric quasi-regular Dirichlet forms. This title covers the essential elements and applications of the theory of symmetric Markov processes, including recurrence/transience criteria, probabilistic potential theory, additive functional theory, and time change theory.

Presents a comprehensive treatment of Coxeter groups from the viewpoint of geometric group theory. This book discusses many important topics in geometric group theory and topology, including Hopf's theory of ends; contractible manifolds and homology spheres; the Poincare Conjecture; and Gromov's theory of CAT(0) spaces and groups.
