In 1824, a young Norwegian named Niels Henrik Abel proved conclusively that algebraic equations of the fifth order are not solvable in radicals. In this work, Peter Pesic shows what an important event this was in the history of thought. He also presents it as a remarkable human story.

Reciprocity laws of various kinds play a central role in number theory. This book states several reciprocity laws in terms of abelian varieties, theta functions, and modular functions of several variables, including Siegel modular functions. It also covers the zeta function of an abelian variety as a main theme.

One of the most prominent mathematicians of the twentieth century, Abraham Robinson discovered and developed nonstandard analysis, a rigorous theory of infinitesimals that he used to unite mathematical logic with the larger body of historic and modern mathematics. In this first biography of Robinson, Joseph Dauben reveals the mathematician's person

A comprehensive treatment of active galactic nuclei - the cosmic power-houses at the core of many distant galaxies. The term active galactic nuclei refers to quasars, radio galaxies, Seyfert galaxies, blazars, and related objects, all of which are believed to share a similar central engine - a supermassive black hole many times the mass of the Sun.

By focusing on the crucial role of environment in the process of adaptation, Robert Brandon clarifies definitions and principles so as to help make the argument of evolution by natural selection empirically testable. He proposes that natural selection is the process of differential reproduction resulting from differential adaptedness to a common se

The aim of this work is to present a unified approach to the modern field of control theory and to provide a technique for making problems involving deterministic, stochastic, and adaptive processes of both linear and nonlinear type amenable to machine solution. Mr. Bellman has used the theory of dynamic programming to formulate, analyze, and prepa
