This book presents the basics of quantum computing and quantum information theory. It emphasizes the mathematical aspects and the historical continuity of both algorithms and information theory when passing from classical to quantum settings. The book begins with several classical algorithms relevant for quantum computing and of interest in their ......

This book provides a comprehensive and user-friendly exploration of the tremendous recent developments that reveal the connections between real algebraic geometry and optimization, two subjects that were usually taught separately until the beginning of the 21st century. Real algebraic geometry studies the solutions of polynomial equations and ......
A fundamental question in the theory of discrete and continuous-time population models concerns the conditions for the extinction or persistence of populations - a question that is addressed mathematically by persistence theory. For some time, it has been recognized that if the dynamics of a structured population are mathematically captured by ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the virtual AMS Special Session on Mathematics of Decisions, Elections and Games, held on April 8, 2022. Decision theory, voting theory, and game theory are three related areas of mathematics that involve making optimal decisions in different contexts. While these three areas are distinct, much of the ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the virtual AMS Special Session on Fractal Geometry and Dynamical Systems, held from May 14-15, 2022. The content covers a wide range of topics. It includes nonautonomous dynamics of complex polynomials, theory and applications of polymorphisms, topological and geometric problems related to dynamical ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the LuCaNT (LMFDB, Computation, and Number Theory) conference held from July 10-14, 2023, at the Institute for Computational and Experimental Research in Mathematics (ICERM), Providence, Rhode Island and affiliated with Brown University. This conference provided an opportunity for researchers, scholars, and ......
This book is intended as a comprehensive treatment of group-based cryptography accessible to both mathematicians and computer scientists, with emphasis on the most recent developments in the area. To make it accessible to a broad range of readers, the authors started with a treatment of elementary topics in group theory, combinatorics, and ......
Game theory provides a mathematical setting for analyzing competition and cooperation in interactive situations. The theory has been famously applied in economics, but is relevant in many other sciences, such as psychology, computer science, artificial intelligence, biology, and political science. This book presents an introductory and up-to-date ......
