With the background developed in the previous chapters, we are ready to begin the study of Linear Algebra by introducing vector spaces. Vector spaces are essential for the formulation and solution of ...

Nicolaas Bloembergen, recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics (1981), wrote Nonlinear Optics in 1964, when the field of nonlinear optics was only three years old. The available literature has since ...

The field of electrochemical measurement, with respect to thermodynamics, kinetics and analysis, is widely recognised but the subject can be unpredictable to the novice, even if they have a strong ...

“The text is written in a very smooth and intelligent form, yielding a readable book whose contents are accessible to a wide class of readers, even to undergraduate students, provided that they accept ...

This book is a compilation of the lectures for a one-semester course on gravitation at the University of Rochester. Starting from a simple description of geometry, the topics are systematically ...

Differential equations can bring mathematics to life, describing phenomena originating in physics, chemistry, biology, economics, and more. Used by scientists and engineers alike, differential ...

This book is an introductory text on dynamic meteorology and is the result of Professor Riegel's long years of teaching experience. The approach is very pedagogical. Many examples are provided to ...

In recent years, the continuous advancement of nanotechnology has promoted the wide application of natural mineral materials in various fields. Due to its unique mineralization conditions, natural ...

Bifurcation and Chaos has dominated research in nonlinear dynamics for over two decades and numerous introductory and advanced books have been published on this subject. There remains, however, a dire ...

The International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) is an annual international mathematics competition held for pre-collegiate students. It is also the oldest of the international science olympiads, and ...

These volumes collect most of the papers of Anatole Katok, one of the founders of the modern theory of dynamical systems. Katok's work reflects half a century of research in mathematics and includes ...
