(Paperback, Revised edition)

Offers a survey of representation theory of semisimple Lie groups. Suitable for both graduate students and researchers, this book states the theorems precisely, and gives many illustrative examples or classes of examples. It includes for the reader a useful 300-item bibliography and an extensive section of notes.

Critique of research methods and methodology is one of several key features of the regular dialogue between researchers. The accounts and reactions are written to expose the nature of methodology of classroom research.

This volume contains papers and abstracts by participants of the Conference on Riemann Surfaces and Related Topics, which was held at the State University of New York at Stony Brook, June 5-9, 1978.

(Paperback)

The theory of Riemann surfaces has a geometric and an analytic part. The former deals with the axiomatic definition of a Riemann surface, methods of construction, topological equivalence, and conformal mappings of one Riemann surface on another. The analytic part is concerned with the existence and properties of functions that have a special charac

In this text the author looks at the work of Riemann, who in the 19th century contributed to the study of curved surfaces, or non-Euclidian geometry. Riemann's results later found application in physics, when Einstein introduced his theory of relativity.

The author introduced the concept of a "local system" on P1-{a finite set of points} nearly 140 years ago. His idea was to study nth order linear differential equations by studying the rank n local systems (of local holomorphic solutions) to which they gave rise.

Because estimation involves inferring information about an unknown quantity on the basis of available data, the selection of an estimator is influenced by its ability to perform well under the conditions that are assumed to underlie the data. Since these conditions are never known exactly, the estimators chosen must be robust; i.e., they must be ab

Features simple treatment of uncertain linear programming. This book also presents an analysis of the interconnections between the construction of appropriate uncertainty sets and the classical chance constraints (probabilistic) approach.

The central theme of these essays is the nature and role of mathematics, its growth and spread, and its involvement with ever-wider areas of knowledge. The author attempts to determine the decisive and creative aspects of the abstractness" of mathematics which have made it the dominant intellectual force that it is. He frequently confronts the math

Focuses on selection theorems that are related to the axiom of choice, particularly selectors of small Borel or Baire classes. This text constructs selectors obtained as limits of functions that are constant on the sets of certain partitions of metric spaces. It is aimed at students and researchers who wish to expand their knowledge of selectors.

(Paperback)

Presents a framework for the theory of primal-dual IPMs based on the notion of the self-regularity of a function. This book deals with linear optimization, nonlinear complementarity problems, semidefinite optimization, and second-order conic optimization problems.

The modeling of stochastic dependence is fundamental for understanding random systems evolving in time. With an historical overview, this book describes the state of knowledge about selfsimilar processes and their applications. It emphasizes concepts, definitions and basic properties, giving the reader a road map of the realm of selfsimilarity.

(Paperback)

Represents the asymptotic analysis, via completely integrable techniques, of the initial value problem for the focusing nonlinear Schrodinger equation in the semiclassical asymptotic regime. This book exploits complete integrability to establish pointwise asymptotics for this problem's solution in the semiclassical regime.
