This volume contains selected expository lectures delivered at the 2018 Maurice Auslander Distinguished Lectures and International Conference, held April 25-30, 2018, at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, Woods Hole, MA. Reflecting recent developments in modern representation theory of algebras, the selected topics include an introduction to ......
This book is a charming collection of puzzles created by Yoshiyuki Kotani, one of the founding members of the Academy of Recreational Mathematics, Japan. Kotani has selected some of his favorite puzzles from over 40 years of puzzle setting, most of which have never appeared in western literature. The distinctive culture of Japanese recreational ......
This book consists of a series of papers focusing on the mathematical and computational modeling and analysis of some real-life phenomena in the natural and engineering sciences. The book emphasizes three main themes: (i) the design and analysis of robust and dynamically-consistent nonstandard finite-difference methods for discretizing ......
We develop a unified theory of Eulerian spaces by combining the combinatorial theory of infinite, locally finite Eulerian graphs as introduced by Diestel and Kuehn with the topological theory of Eulerian continua defined as irreducible images of the circle, as proposed by Bula, Nikiel and Tymchatyn. First, we clarify the notion of an Eulerian ......
This book gives a self-contained introduction to the modern ideas and problems of harmonic analysis. Intended for third- and fourth-year undergraduates, the book only requires basic knowledge of real analysis, and covers necessary background in measure theory, Lebesgue integration and approximation theorems. The book motivates the study of ......
It is well known that if two independent identically distributed random variables are Gaussian, then their sum and difference are also independent. It turns out that only Gaussian random variables have such property. This statement, known as the famous Kac-Bernstein theorem, is a typical example of a so-called characterization theorem. ......
Articles in this volume are based on presentations given at the IV Meeting of Mexican Mathematicians Abroad (IV Reunion de Matematicos Mexicanos en el Mundo), held from June 10-15, 2018, at Casa Matematica Oaxaca (CMO), Mexico. This meeting was the fourth in a series of ongoing biannual meetings bringing together Mexican mathematicians working ......
This book is dedicated to the qualitative theory of the stochastic one-dimensional Burgers equation with small viscosity under periodic boundary conditions and to interpreting the obtained results in terms of one-dimensional turbulence in a fictitious one-dimensional fluid described by the Burgers equation. The properties of one-dimensional ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Arithmetic, Geometry, Cryptography and Coding Theory (AGC2T-17), held from June 10-14, 2019, at the Centre International de Rencontres Mathematiques in Marseille, France. The conference was dedicated to the memory of Gilles Lachaud, one of the founding fathers of the ......
