The theory of persistence modules originated in topological data analysis and became an active area of research in algebraic topology. This book provides a concise and self-contained introduction to persistence modules and focuses on their interactions with pure mathematics, bringing the reader to the cutting edge of current research. In ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the conference Dynamics: Topology and Numbers, held from July 2-6, 2018, at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics, Bonn, Germany. The papers cover diverse fields of mathematics with a unifying theme of relation to dynamical systems. These include arithmetic geometry, flat geometry, complex dynamics, ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the CRM Workshops on Probabilistic Methods in Spectral Geometry and PDE, held from August 22-26, 2016 and Probabilistic Methods in Topology, held from November 14-18, 2016 at the Centre de Recherches Mathematiques, Universite de Montreal, Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Probabilistic methods have played an ......
Discrete Morse theory is a powerful tool combining ideas in both topology and combinatorics. Invented by Robin Forman in the mid 1990s, discrete Morse theory is a combinatorial analogue of Marston Morse's classical Morse theory. Its applications are vast, including applications to topological data analysis, combinatorics, and computer science. ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the 2016 Summer School on Fractal Geometry and Complex Dimensions, in celebration of Michel L. Lapidus's 60th birthday, held from June 21-29, 2016, at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo, California. The theme of the contributions is fractals and dynamics and content is split into four ......
This book provides a systematic treatment of the main results on the Morse index of minimal submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds. After an introductory chapter reviewing the necessary material, this book provides a survey of the basic properties of the Morse index, as well as a large number of examples of minimal submanifolds with the ......
This volume contains selected papers based on presentations given at the AMS Special Session on Inverse Problems: In Memory of Professor Zbigniew Oziewicz at the AMS Fall Western Sectional Meeting, held virtually on October 23-24, 2021, a year after the unfortunate passing of our friend and frequent participant of the sessions Professor Zbigniew ......

This volume is dedicated ......
The theory of positive or completely positive maps from one matrix algebra to another is the mathematical theory underlying the quantum mechanics of finite systems, as well as much of quantum information and computing. Inequalities are fundamental to the subject, and a watershed event in its development was the proof of the strong subadditivity of ......
