Fish travel in schools, birds migrate in flocks, honeybees swarm, and ants build trails. How and why do these collective behaviors occur Exploring how coordinated group patterns emerge from individual interactions, this work reveals why animals produce group behaviors and examines their evolution across a range of species.

Measured geodesic laminations are a natural generalization of simple closed curves in surfaces, and they play a decisive role in various developments in two-and three-dimensional topology, geometry, and dynamical systems. This book presents a treatment of the combinatorial structure of the space of measured geodesic laminations in a fixed surface.

In an investigation into the boundaries between popular culture and early-modern science, Sara J. Schechner delineates the evolution of people's understanding of comets, She examines how "vulgar superstitions were nonetheless absorbed into the science of Newton and Halley and became part of the foundation on which modern cosmology was built.

Deals with the characterization of hypergeometric-like functions, that is, twists of hypergeometric functions in n-variables. This book compares monodromy groups corresponding to different parameters and proves commensurability modulo inner automorphisms of PU(1,n).

Through theoretical synthesis, this work shows that the key biotic drivers of community and ecosystem properties involve linkages between aboveground and belowground food webs, biotic interaction, the spatial and temporal dynamics of component organisms, and, the ecophysiological traits of those organisms that emerge as ecological drivers.

Emphasizes the role of competition at levels above single species populations, and describes how competition, by way of the niche concept, determines the structure of communities. This work draws most examples from eleven North and South American bird communities, although the concepts and methodology are far more general.

Addressing researchers and graduate students in the meeting ground of analysis, geometry, and dynamics, this book presents a study of renormalization of quadratic polynomials and an introduction to techniques in complex dynamics. Its central concern is the structure of an infinitely renormalizable quadratic polynomial f(z) = z2 + c.
