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.

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.

The accompanying CD-ROM has self-contained programs that interact with the text, providing for easy grasp of the new concepts and enabling readers to write their own demonstration programs.
Contains software on CD ROM:
The accompanying software demonstrates, through simulation and exercises, how each concept of calculus can be associated with a program for the 'ideal computer'
Using this software readers will be able to write their own demonstration programs

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.

This substantially illustrated manual describes how to use Maple as an investigative tool to explore calculus concepts numerically, graphically, symbolically and verbally. Every chapter begins with Maple commands employed in the chapter, an introduction to the mathematical concepts being covered, worked examples in Maple worksheet format, followed by thought-provoking exercises and extensive discovery projects to encourage readers to investigate ideas on their own.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to Calculus begins with a rapid view of lines and slope. Spivak then takes up non-linear functions and trigonometric functions. He places the magnifying glass on curves in the next chapter and effortlessly leads the reader to the idea of derivative. In the next chapter he tackles speed and velocity, followed by the derivative of sine. Maxima and minima are next. Rolle's theorem and the MVT form the core of Chapter 11, ""Watching Experts at Play."" The Hitchhiker's Guide to Calculus closes with a chapter on the integral, the fundamental theorem, and applications of the integral.

iii Vorwort Diese Arbeit setzt sich mit der zuverlassigen numerischen Ermittlung grund legender Eigenschaften von Regelungssystemen auseinander, die hinreichend gen au durch ein lineares Modell, das lediglich eine Naherung 1. Ordnung darstellt (Schwarz 1991), approximiert werden konnen. Neben der Steuer und Beobachtbarkeit stehen Eigenschaften wie die Invertierbarkeit, die Ein / Ausgangsentkoppelbarkeit, die Storentkoppelbarkeit und das Verhalten bei hohen Ruckfuhrverstarkungen im Mittelpunkt des Interesses. Alle diese Eigen schaften sind im Grunde mit entsprechend definierten Nullstellen des Systems eng verknupft. Einen breiten Raum wird daher der Behandlung des Konzeptes der endlichen und unendlichen Nullstellen von Mehrgrossensystemen eingeraumt. An einem Modell niedriger Ordnung eines Werkzeugmaschinenantriebes wird zunachst demonstriert, wie stark numerisch ermittelte Aussagen durch die be grenzte Rechengenauigkeit der verwendeten Gleitpunktarithmetik beeinflusst wer den konnen. Anschliessend werden dann die bekannten Kriterien zur Uberprufung der Steuerbarkeit auf ihre numerischen Eigenschaften hin untersucht. Ein Fazit dieser Untersuchung ist, dass alle Kriterien bei grosseren Systemen und einer numerischen Auswertung mit einer begrenzten Anzahl von Dezimalstellen vollig falsche Ergebnisse liefern konnen, so dass die mit konventionellen Programmen gewonnenen Aussagen stets als "fragwurdig" angesehen werden mussen."

This book presents an exposition of spherical functions on compact symmetric spaces, from the viewpoint of Cartan-Selberg. Representation theory, invariant differential operators, and invariant integral operators play an important role in the exposition. The author treats compact symmetric pairs, spherical representations for compact symmetric pairs, the fundamental groups of compact symmetric spaces, and the radial part of an invariant differential operator. Also explored are the classical results for spheres and complex projective spaces and the relation between spherical functions and harmonic polynomials. This book is suitable as a graduate textbook.

From the Preface: 'The purpose of our book is to provide an overall view of all the basic features of almost periodic functions, in the various meanings this term has acquired in modern research as well as the many applications of such functions. This feature of the book should, of course, make it useful to those readers who are interested in the connections that exist between theory (pure!) of almost periodic functions and such areas of application as the theory of ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations. Several other areas of application are also indicated, together with an abundance of references'.From the Preface: 'The Bibliographical Notes at the end of almost every chapter have been added to in this second edition. Completely new is Chapter II.3, which is devoted to a relatively new class of almost periodic functions: random functions almost periodic in probability. It is certain that these functions will find many applications in the theory of stochastic functional equations'.

H. A. Schwarz showed us how to extend the notion of reflection in straight lines and circles to reflection in an arbitrary analytic arc. Notable applications were made to the symmetry principle and to problems of analytic continuation. Reflection, in the hands of Schwarz, is an antianalytic mapping. By taking its complex conjugate, we arrive at an analytic function that we have called here the Schwarz Function of the analytic arc. This function is worthy of study in its own right and this essay presents such a study. In dealing with certain familiar topics, the use of the Schwarz Function lends a point of view, a clarity and elegance, and a degree of generality which might otherwise be missing. It opens up a line of inquiry which has yielded numerous interesting things in complex variables; it illuminates some functional equations and a variety of iterations which interest the numerical analyst. The perceptive reader will certainly find here some old wine in relabelled bottles. But one of the principles of mathematical growth is that the relabelling process often suggests a new generation of problems. Means become ends; the medium rapidly becomes the message. This book is not wholly self-contained. Readers will find that they should be familiar with the elementary portions of linear algebra and of the theory of functions of a complex variable.

Wissen Sie noch, was Polarkoordinaten sind und wie man mit ihnen rechnet? Wie man Kreise, Kugeln oder Ellipsen beschreibt? Mit diesem Buch koennen Sie Ihr Wissen aus dem Mathematikunterricht der Oberstufe auffrischen und sich so auf ein Studium vorbereiten, in dem solide Kenntnisse der Schulmathematik - und mehr - benoetigt werden. Durch die anschauliche Darstellung sowie die vielen Beispiele eignet sich das Werk aber auch hervorragend als Begleitmaterial zu einer einfuhrenden Mathematikvorlesung. Neben ausfuhrlichen, aber klaren Herleitungen erleichtern besonders die zahlreichen UEbungsaufgaben mit Loesungen das Lesen und Lernen: Statt trockener Theorie steht hier immer das UEben und Verstehen im Vordergrund. Beweise und zusatzliche Erklarungen gehen ausserdem teilweise uber den Schulstoff hinaus, sodass Sie gleichzeitig behutsam an den hochschultypischen Lehr- und Lernstil herangefuhrt werden. In Band 2 liegt der Fokus auf Inhalten, die haufig nicht mehr an der Schule behandelt werden, an Hochschulen aber wieder relevant werden: Kreise, Kugeln und Kegelschnitte. Dieser Band schliesst an einen weiteren an, der auf die Grundlagen der Linearen Algebra und Analytischen Geometrie eingeht.
