This volume highlights the analysis on noncompact and singular manifolds within the framework of the cone calculus with asymptotics. The three papers at the beginning deal with parabolic equations, a topic relevant for many applications. The first article presents a calculus for pseudodifferential operators with an anisotropic analytic parameter. The subsequent paper develops an algebra of Mellin operators on the infinite space-time cylinder. It is shown how timelike infinity can be treated as a conical singularity. In the third text - the central article of this volume - the authors use these results to obtain precise information on the long-time asymptotics of solutions to parabolic equations and to construct inverses within the calculus. There follows a factorization theorem for meromorphic symbols: It is proven that each of these can be decomposed into a holomorphic invertible part and a smoothing part containing all the meromorphic information. It is expected that this result will be important for applications in the analysis of nonlinear hyperbolic equations. The final article addresses the question of the coordinate invariance of the Mellin calculus with asymptotics.

Harmonic Analysis on Exponential Solvable Lie Groups (Hardcover, 2015 ed.): Hidenori Fujiwara, Jean Ludwig Harmonic Analysis on Exponential Solvable Lie Groups (Hardcover, 2015 ed.)
Hidenori Fujiwara, Jean Ludwig
R3,596 Discovery Miles 35 960 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book is the first one that brings together recent results on the harmonic analysis of exponential solvable Lie groups. There still are many interesting open problems, and the book contributes to the future progress of this research field. As well, various related topics are presented to motivate young researchers. The orbit method invented by Kirillov is applied to study basic problems in the analysis on exponential solvable Lie groups. This method tells us that the unitary dual of these groups is realized as the space of their coadjoint orbits. This fact is established using the Mackey theory for induced representations, and that mechanism is explained first. One of the fundamental problems in the representation theory is the irreducible decomposition of induced or restricted representations. Therefore, these decompositions are studied in detail before proceeding to various related problems: the multiplicity formula, Plancherel formulas, intertwining operators, Frobenius reciprocity, and associated algebras of invariant differential operators. The main reasoning in the proof of the assertions made here is induction, and for this there are not many tools available. Thus a detailed analysis of the objects listed above is difficult even for exponential solvable Lie groups, and it is often assumed that G is nilpotent. To make the situation clearer and future development possible, many concrete examples are provided. Various topics presented in the nilpotent case still have to be studied for solvable Lie groups that are not nilpotent. They all present interesting and important but difficult problems, however, which should be addressed in the near future. Beyond the exponential case, holomorphically induced representations introduced by Auslander and Kostant are needed, and for that reason they are included in this book.

This book collects papers based on the XXXVI Bialowieza Workshop on Geometric Methods in Physics, 2017. The Workshop, which attracts a community of experts active at the crossroads of mathematics and physics, represents a major annual event in the field. Based on presentations given at the Workshop, the papers gathered here are previously unpublished, at the cutting edge of current research, and primarily grounded in geometry and analysis, with applications to classical and quantum physics. In addition, a Special Session was dedicated to S. Twareque Ali, a distinguished mathematical physicist at Concordia University, Montreal, who passed away in January 2016. For the past six years, the Bialowieza Workshops have been complemented by a School on Geometry and Physics, comprising a series of advanced lectures for graduate students and early-career researchers. The extended abstracts of this year's lecture series are also included here. The unique character of the Workshop-and-School series is due in part to the venue: a famous historical, cultural and environmental site in the Bialowieza forest, a UNESCO World Heritage Centre in eastern Poland. Lectures are given in the Nature and Forest Museum, and local traditions are interwoven with the scientific activities.

Spectral Theory of Bounded Linear Operators (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020): Carlos S. Kubrusly Spectral Theory of Bounded Linear Operators (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2020)
Carlos S. Kubrusly
R1,767 Discovery Miles 17 670 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This textbook introduces spectral theory for bounded linear operators by focusing on (i) the spectral theory and functional calculus for normal operators acting on Hilbert spaces; (ii) the Riesz-Dunford functional calculus for Banach-space operators; and (iii) the Fredholm theory in both Banach and Hilbert spaces. Detailed proofs of all theorems are included and presented with precision and clarity, especially for the spectral theorems, allowing students to thoroughly familiarize themselves with all the important concepts. Covering both basic and more advanced material, the five chapters and two appendices of this volume provide a modern treatment on spectral theory. Topics range from spectral results on the Banach algebra of bounded linear operators acting on Banach spaces to functional calculus for Hilbert and Banach-space operators, including Fredholm and multiplicity theories. Supplementary propositions and further notes are included as well, ensuring a wide range of topics in spectral theory are covered. Spectral Theory of Bounded Linear Operators is ideal for graduate students in mathematics, and will also appeal to a wider audience of statisticians, engineers, and physicists. Though it is mostly self-contained, a familiarity with functional analysis, especially operator theory, will be helpful.

R2,084 R1,886 Discovery Miles 18 860 Save R198 (10%) Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book presents a comprehensive mathematical study of the operators behind the Born-Jordan quantization scheme. The Schroedinger and Heisenberg pictures of quantum mechanics are equivalent only if the Born-Jordan scheme is used. Thus, Born-Jordan quantization provides the only physically consistent quantization scheme, as opposed to the Weyl quantization commonly used by physicists. In this book we develop Born-Jordan quantization from an operator-theoretical point of view, and analyze in depth the conceptual differences between the two schemes. We discuss various physically motivated approaches, in particular the Feynman-integral point of view. One important and intriguing feature of Born-Jordan quantization is that it is not one-to-one: there are infinitely many classical observables whose quantization is zero.

Sequence Spaces and Measures of Noncompactness with Applications to Differential and Integral Equations (Hardcover, 2014 ed.):... Sequence Spaces and Measures of Noncompactness with Applications to Differential and Integral Equations (Hardcover, 2014 ed.)
Jozef Banas, Mohammad Mursaleen
R3,432 Discovery Miles 34 320 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book deals with the study of sequence spaces, matrix transformations, measures of noncompactness and their various applications. The notion of measure of noncompactness is one of the most useful ones available and has many applications. The book discusses some of the existence results for various types of differential and integral equations with the help of measures of noncompactness; in particular, the Hausdorff measure of noncompactness has been applied to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for matrix operators between BK spaces to be compact operators.

The book consists of eight self-contained chapters. Chapter 1 discusses the theory of FK spaces and Chapter 2 various duals of sequence spaces, which are used to characterize the matrix classes between these sequence spaces (FK and BK spaces) in Chapters 3 and 4. Chapter 5 studies the notion of a measure of noncompactness and its properties. The techniques associated with measures of noncompactness are applied to characterize the compact matrix operators in Chapters 6. In Chapters 7 and 8, some of the existence results are discussed for various types of differential and integral equations, which are obtained with the help of argumentations based on compactness conditions.

Linear Functional Analysis for Scientists and Engineers (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016): Balmohan V. Limaye Linear Functional Analysis for Scientists and Engineers (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2016)
Balmohan V. Limaye
R2,561 Discovery Miles 25 610 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This book provides a concise and meticulous introduction to functional analysis. Since the topic draws heavily on the interplay between the algebraic structure of a linear space and the distance structure of a metric space, functional analysis is increasingly gaining the attention of not only mathematicians but also scientists and engineers. The purpose of the text is to present the basic aspects of functional analysis to this varied audience, keeping in mind the considerations of applicability. A novelty of this book is the inclusion of a result by Zabreiko, which states that every countably subadditive seminorm on a Banach space is continuous. Several major theorems in functional analysis are easy consequences of this result. The entire book can be used as a textbook for an introductory course in functional analysis without having to make any specific selection from the topics presented here. Basic notions in the setting of a metric space are defined in terms of sequences. These include total boundedness, compactness, continuity and uniform continuity. Offering concise and to-the-point treatment of each topic in the framework of a normed space and of an inner product space, the book represents a valuable resource for advanced undergraduate students in mathematics, and will also appeal to graduate students and faculty in the natural sciences and engineering. The book is accessible to anyone who is familiar with linear algebra and real analysis.

Real Analysis - With Proof Strategies (Paperback): Daniel W. Cunningham Real Analysis - With Proof Strategies (Paperback)
Daniel W. Cunningham
R1,530 Discovery Miles 15 300 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Typically, undergraduates see real analysis as one of the most difficult courses that a mathematics major is required to take. The main reason for this perception is twofold: Students must comprehend new abstract concepts and learn to deal with these concepts on a level of rigor and proof not previously encountered. A key challenge for an instructor of real analysis is to find a way to bridge the gap between a student's preparation and the mathematical skills that are required to be successful in such a course. Real Analysis: With Proof Strategies provides a resolution to the "bridging-the-gap problem." The book not only presents the fundamental theorems of real analysis, but also shows the reader how to compose and produce the proofs of these theorems. The detail, rigor, and proof strategies offered in this textbook will be appreciated by all readers. Features Explicitly shows the reader how to produce and compose the proofs of the basic theorems in real analysis Suitable for junior or senior undergraduates majoring in mathematics.

Lebesgue Points and Summability of Higher Dimensional Fourier Series (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021): Ferenc Weisz Lebesgue Points and Summability of Higher Dimensional Fourier Series (Hardcover, 1st ed. 2021)
Ferenc Weisz
R3,674 Discovery Miles 36 740 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

This monograph presents the summability of higher dimensional Fourier series, and generalizes the concept of Lebesgue points. Focusing on Fejer and Cesaro summability, as well as theta-summation, readers will become more familiar with a wide variety of summability methods. Within the theory of higher dimensional summability of Fourier series, the book also provides a much-needed simple proof of Lebesgue's theorem, filling a gap in the literature. Recent results and real-world applications are highlighted as well, making this a timely resource. The book is structured into four chapters, prioritizing clarity throughout. Chapter One covers basic results from the one-dimensional Fourier series, and offers a clear proof of the Lebesgue theorem. In Chapter Two, convergence and boundedness results for the lq-summability are presented. The restricted and unrestricted rectangular summability are provided in Chapter Three, as well as the sufficient and necessary condition for the norm convergence of the rectangular theta-means. Chapter Four then introduces six types of Lebesgue points for higher dimensional functions. Lebesgue Points and Summability of Higher Dimensional Fourier Series will appeal to researchers working in mathematical analysis, particularly those interested in Fourier and harmonic analysis. Researchers in applied fields will also find this useful.

Elliptic Operators and Lie Groups (Hardcover): Derek W Robinson Elliptic Operators and Lie Groups (Hardcover)
Derek W Robinson
R4,918 Discovery Miles 49 180 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Elliptic operators arise naturally in several different mathematical settings, notably in the representation theory of Lie groups, the study of evolution equations, and the examination of Riemannian manifolds. This book develops the basic theory of elliptic operators on Lie groups and thereby extends the conventional theory of parabolic evolution equations to a natural non-commutative context. In order to achieve this goal, the author presents a synthesis of ideas from partial differential equations, harmonic analysis, functional analysis, and the theory of Lie groups. He begins by discussing the abstract theory of general operators with complex coefficients before concentrating on the central case of second-order operators with real coefficients. A full discussion of second-order subellilptic operators is also given. Prerequisites are a familiarity with basic semigroup theory, the elementary theory of Lie groups, and a firm grounding in functional analysis as might be gained from the first year of a graduate course.

R2,761 Discovery Miles 27 610 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This EMS volume consists of two parts, written by leading scientists in the field of operator algebras and non-commutative geometry. The first part, written by M.Rordam, is on Elliott's classification program for nuclear C*-algebras. The emphasis is on the work of Kirchberg and the spectacular results by Kirchberg and Phillips giving a nearly complete classification, in terms of K-theoretic invariants, in the purely infinite case. This part of the program is described with almost full proofs beginning with Kirchberg's tensor product theorems and Kirchberg's embedding theorem for exact C*-algebras. The classification of finite simple C*-algebras starting with AF-algebras, and continuing with AT- and AH-algebras is covered, but mostly without proofs. The second part, written by E.Stormer, is a survey of the theory of of noncommutative entropy of automorphisms of C*-algebras and von Neumann algebras from its initiation by Connes and Stormer in 1975 till 2001.

Many of our daily-life problems can be written in the form of an optimization problem. Therefore, solution methods are needed to solve such problems. Due to the complexity of the problems, it is not always easy to find the exact solution. However, approximate solutions can be found. The theory of the best approximation is applicable in a variety of problems arising in nonlinear functional analysis and optimization. This book highlights interesting aspects of nonlinear analysis and optimization together with many applications in the areas of physical and social sciences including engineering. It is immensely helpful for young graduates and researchers who are pursuing research in this field, as it provides abundant research resources for researchers and post-doctoral fellows. This will be a valuable addition to the library of anyone who works in the field of applied mathematics, economics and engineering.

Presently no other book deals with the stability problem of functional equations in Banach algebras, inner product spaces and amenable groups. Moreover, in most stability theorems for functional equations, the completeness of the target space of the unknown functions contained in the equation is assumed. Recently, the question, whether the stability of a functional equation implies this completeness, has been investigated by several authors. In this book the authors investigate these developments in the theory of approximate functional equations.

This proceedings volume gathers selected, peer-reviewed papers from the "Modern Methods, Problems and Applications of Operator Theory and Harmonic Analysis VIII" (OTHA 2018) conference, which was held in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, in April 2018. The book covers a diverse range of topics in advanced mathematics, including harmonic analysis, functional analysis, operator theory, function theory, differential equations and fractional analysis - all fields that have been intensively developed in recent decades. Direct and inverse problems arising in mathematical physics are studied and new methods for solving them are presented. Complex multiparameter objects that require the involvement of operators with variable parameters and functional spaces, with fractional and even variable exponents, make these approaches all the more relevant. Given its scope, the book will especially benefit researchers with an interest in new trends in harmonic analysis and operator theory, though it will also appeal to graduate students seeking new and intriguing topics for further investigation.

The space C(X) of all continuous functions on a compact space X carries the structure of a normed vector space, an algebra and a lattice. On the one hand we study the relations between these structures and the topology of X, on the other hand we discuss a number of classical results according to which an algebra or a vector lattice can be represented as a C(X). Various applications of these theorems are given.Some attention is devoted to related theorems, e.g. the Stone Theorem for Boolean algebras and the Riesz Representation Theorem.The book is functional analytic in character. It does not presuppose much knowledge of functional analysis; it contains introductions into subjects such as the weak topology, vector lattices and (some) integration theory.

Cohomological Theory of Dynamical Zeta Functions (Hardcover, 2001 ed.): Andreas Juhl Cohomological Theory of Dynamical Zeta Functions (Hardcover, 2001 ed.)
Andreas Juhl
R5,081 Discovery Miles 50 810 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The periodic orbits of the geodesic flow of compact locally symmetric spaces of negative curvature give rise to meromorphic zeta functions (generalized Selberg zeta functions, Ruelle zeta functions). The book treats various aspects of the idea to understand the analytical properties of these zeta functions on the basis of appropriate analogs of the Lefschetz fixed point formula in which the periodic orbits of the flow take the place of the fixed points. According to geometric quantization the Anosov foliations of the sphere bundle provide a natural source for the definition of the cohomological data in the Lefschetz formula. The Lefschetz formula method can be considered as a link between the automorphic approach (Selberg trace formula) and Ruelle's approach (transfer operators). It yields a uniform cohomological characterization of the zeros and poles of the zeta functions and a new understanding of the functional equations from an index theoretical point of view. The divisors of the Selberg zeta functions also admit characterizations in terms of harmonic currents on the sphere bundle which represent the cohomology classes in the Lefschetz formulas in the sense of a Hodge theory. The concept of harmonic currents to be used for that purpose is introduced here for the first time. Harmonic currents for the geodesic flow of a noncompact hyperbolic space with a compact convex core generalize the Patterson-Sullivan measure on the limit set and are responsible for the zeros and poles of the corresponding zeta function. The book describes the present state of the research in a new field on the cutting edge of global analysis, harmonic analysis and dynamical systems. It should be appealing notonly to the specialists on zeta functions which will find their object of favorite interest connected in new ways with index theory, geometric quantization methods, foliation theory and representation theory. There are many unsolved problems and the book hopefully promotes further progress along the lines indicated here.
