Not only does this text explain the theory underlying the properties of the generalized operator, but it also illustrates the wide variety of fields to which these ideas may be applied. Topics include integer order, simple and complex functions, semiderivatives and semi-integrals, and transcendental functions. 1974 edition.
This introductory text presents detailed accounts of the different
forms of the theory developed by Stroock and Bismut, discussions of
the relationship between these two approaches, and a variety of
applications. 1987 edition.
A course in analysis dealing essentially with functions of a real
variable, this text for upper-level undergraduate students
introduces the basic concepts in their simplest setting and
proceeds with numerous examples, theorems stated in a practical
manner, and coherently expressed proofs. 1955 edition.
John C. Sparks is a senior staff engineer at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio with approximately thirty-one years of engineering and management experience. In addition to his Air Force career, Sparks has taught mathematics at Sinclair Community College for over twenty years. In late 2003, Sparks received the Ohio Association of Two-Year Colleges' 2002-2003 Adjunct Teacher of the Year award. He and his wife, Carolyn (photo), have celebrated thirty-five years of marriage and have two sons, Robert and Curtis, who are both married. Sparks is a lifelong resident of Xenia, Ohio. Sparks has written and published three volumes of poetry, Rhyme for All Seasons, Mixed Images, and Gold, Hay and Stubble: One Journeyman's Poetic Diary. Calculus without Limits is his first full-length mathematics work; and, with its publication, a thirty-year old dream is realized.
This 3-part text explores the exterior calculus, including specific detailed applications and in-depth studies of physical disciplines via exterior calculus -- classical and irreversible thermodynamics, electrodynamics with both electric and magnetic charges, and the modern theory of gauge fields. "Essential." -- "SciTech Book News. "1985 edition.
In studies of general operators of the same nature, general convolution transforms are immediately encountered as the objects of inversion. The relation between differential operators and integral transforms is the basic theme of this work, which is geared toward upper-level undergraduates and graduate students. It may be read easily by anyone with a working knowledge of real and complex variable theory. Topics include the finite and non-finite kernels, variation diminishing transforms, asymptotic behavior of kernels, real inversion theory, representation theory, the Weierstrass transform, and complex inversion theory.
Originally published in 1997, An Introduction to Mathematical Analysis provides a rigorous approach to real analysis and the basic ideas of complex analysis. Although the approach is axiomatic, the language is evocative rather than formal, and the proofs are clear and well motivated. The author writes with the reader always in mind. The text includes a novel and simplified approach to the Lebesgue integral, a topic not usually found in books at this level. The problems are scattered throughout the text, and are designed to get the student actively involved in the development at every stage. "This Introduction to Mathematical Analysis is a very carefully written and well organized presentation of the major theorems in classical real and complex analysis. I can find no fault whatever pertaining to the level of rigor or mathematical precision of the manuscript. All in all I think this is a fine text." Reviewer from Portland State "To summarize I think this text is very good. Its strengths are many. The choices of the problems and examples are well made. The proofs are very to the point and the style makes the text very readable." Reviewer from Michigan State "H. S. Bear seems to be one of the best kept secrets around. His writing in general is superb. This book is a well organized first course in analysis broken into digestible chunks and surprisingly thorough. It covers the basic topics and then introduces the reader to complex analysis and later to Lebesgue integration." James M. Cargal Professor Bear obtained his degree at the University of California, Berkeley with a thesis in functional analysis. He has held permanent positions at several major western universities, as well as visiting appointments at Princeton, the University of California, San Diego, and Erlangen-Nurnberg, Germany. All of these venues involved a ridiculous amount of bad weather, so he went to the University of Hawaii as department chairman in 1969. He served as department chairman for five years, and later served a term as graduate chairman. He has numerous research and expository publications in the areas of functional analysis, real and complex analysis, and measure theory.

Originally published in the Soviet Union, this text is meant for students of higher schools and deals with the most important sections of mathematics - differential equations and the calculus of variations. The first part describes the theory of differential equations and reviews the methods for integrating these equations and investigating their solutions. The second part gives an idea of the calculus of variations and surveys the methods for solving variational problems. The book contains a large number of examples and problems with solutions involving applications of mathematics to physics and mechanics. Apart from its main purpose the textbook is of interest to expert mathematicians. Lev Elsgolts (deceased) was a Doctor of Physico-Mathematical Sciences, Professor at the Patrice Lumumba University of Friendship of Peoples. His research work was dedicated to the calculus of variations and differential equations. He worked out the theory of differential equations with deviating arguments and supplied methods for their solution. Lev Elsgolts was the author of many printed works. Among others, he wrote the well-known books Qualitative Methods in Mathematical Analysis and Introduction to the Theory of Differential Equations with Deviating Arguments. In addition to his research work Lev Elsgolts taught at higher schools for over twenty years.

This book contains the latest developments in a central theme of research on analysis of one complex variable. The material is based on lectures at the University of Michigan. The exposition is about understanding the geometry of interpolating and sampling sequences in classical spaces of analytic functions. The subject can be viewed as arising from three classical topics: Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation, Carleson's interpolation theorem for $H^\infty$, and the sampling theorem, also known as the Whittaker-Kotelnikov-Shannon theorem.The author clarifies how certain basic properties of the space at hand are reflected in the geometry of interpolating and sampling sequences. Key words for the geometric descriptions are Carleson measures, Beurling densities, the Nyquist rate, and the Helson-Szego condition. Seip writes in a relaxed and fairly informal style, successfully blending informal explanations with technical details. The result is a very readable account of this complex topic. Prerequisites are a basic knowledge of complex and functional analysis. Beyond that, readers should have some familiarity with the basics of $H^p$ theory and BMO.

Ideal for self-instruction as well as classroom use, this text helps students develop improved understanding and problem-solving skills in calculus. It features more than 1,200 problems, with concise explanations of the basic notions and theorems to be used in their solutions; complete answers appear in the text and at the end of the book. Unabridged republication of the edition published by Holden-Day, Inc., San Francisco, 1963.
Ergodic theory studies measure-preserving transformations of measure spaces. These objects are intrinsically infinite, and the notion of an individual point or of an orbit makes no sense. Still there are a variety of situations when a measure-preserving transformation (and its asymptotic behavior) can be well described as a limit of certain finite objects (periodic processes). The first part of this book develops this idea systematically. Genericity of approximation in various categories is explored, and numerous applications are presented, including spectral multiplicity and properties of the maximal spectral type.The second part of the book contains a treatment of various constructions of cohomological nature with an emphasis on obtaining interesting asymptotic behavior from approximate pictures at different time scales. The book presents a view of ergodic theory not found in other expository sources. It is suitable for graduate students familiar with measure theory and basic functional analysis.
Modern conceptual treatment of multivariable calculus, emphasizing the interplay of geometry and analysis via linear algebra and the approximation of nonlinear mappings by linear ones. At the same time, ample attention is paid to the classical applications and computational methods responsible for much of the interest and importance of the subject. Hundreds of carefully chosen examples, problems and figures. 1973 edition.
Computable Calculus treats the fundamental topic of calculus in a
novel way that is more in tune with today's computer age.
Comprising 11 chapters and an accompanying CD-ROM, the book
presents mathematical analysis that has been created to deal with
constructively defined concepts. The book's "show your work"
approach makes it easier to understand the pitfalls of various
computations and, more importantly, how to avoid these pitfalls.
Understanding and working with the current models of financial markets requires a sound knowledge of the mathematical tools and ideas from which they are built. Banks and financial houses all over the world recognize this and are avidly recruiting mathematicians, physicists, and other scientists with these skills. The mathematics involved in modern finance springs from the heart of probability and analysis, for example: the It calculus, stochastic control, differential equations, and martingales. The authors give rigorous treatments of these topics, while always keeping the applications in mind. Thus, the way in which the mathematics is developed is governed by the way it will be used, rather than by the goal of optimal generality. Indeed, most of purely mathematical topics are treated in extended "excursions" from the applications into the theory. Thus, with the main topic of financial modelling and optimization in view, the reader also obtains a self-contained and complete introduction to the underlying mathematics. This book is specifically designed as a graduate textbook.
This book resulted from the lectures held at The Fields Institute (Waterloo, ON, Canada). Leading international experts presented current results on the theory of $C^*$-algebras and von Neumann algebras, together with recent work on the classification of $C^*$-algebras. Much of the material in the book is appearing here for the first time and is not available elsewhere in the literature.
Written by three gifted--and funny--teachers, How to Ace Calculus provides humorous and readable explanations of the key topics of calculus without the technical details and fine print that would be found in a more formal text. Capturing the tone of students exchanging ideas among themselves, this unique guide also explains how calculus is taught, how to get the best teachers, what to study, and what is likely to be on exams--all the tricks of the trade that will make learning the material of first-semester calculus a piece of cake. Funny, irreverent, and flexible, How to Ace Calculus shows why learning calculus can be not only a mind-expanding experience but also fantastic fun.
Free probability theory is a highly noncommutative probability theory, with independence based on free products instead of tensor products. The theory models random matrices in the large $N$ limit and operator algebra free products. It has led to a surge of new results on the von Neumann algebras of free groups. This is a volume of papers from a workshop on Random Matrices and Operator Algebra Free Products, held at The Fields Institute for Research in the Mathematical Sciences in March 1995. Over the last few years, there has been much progress on the operator algebra and noncommutative probability sides of the subject. New links with the physics of masterfields and the combinatorics of noncrossing partitions have emerged. Moreover there is a growing free entropy theory. The idea of this workshop was to bring together people working in all these directions and from an even broader free products area where future developments might lead.
