with the strongest foundation for a STEM future.
James Stewart's
Calculus, Metric series is the top-seller in the world because of
its problem-solving focus, mathematical precision and accuracy, and
outstanding examples and problem sets. Selected and mentored by
Stewart, coauthors Daniel Clegg and Saleem Watson continue his
legacy, and their careful refinements retain Stewart's clarity of
exposition and make the 9th Edition an even more usable learning
tool.
The accompanying WebAssign includes helpful learning support
and new resources like Explore It interactive learning modules.
Showing that Calculus is both practical and beautiful, the Stewart
approach and WebAssign resources enhance understanding and build
confidence for millions of students worldwide.
This book is aimed at providing a coherent, essentially
self-contained, rigorous and comprehensive abstract theory of
Feynman's operational calculus for noncommuting operators. Although
it is inspired by Feynman's original heuristic suggestions and
time-ordering rules in his seminal 1951 paper An operator calculus
having applications in quantum electrodynamics, as will be made
abundantly clear in the introduction (Chapter 1) and elsewhere in
the text, the theory developed in this book also goes well beyond
them in a number of directions which were not anticipated in
Feynman's work. Hence, the second part of the main title of this
book. The basic properties of the operational calculus are
developed and certain algebraic and analytic properties of the
operational calculus are explored. Also, the operational calculus
will be seen to possess some pleasant stability properties.
Furthermore, an evolution equation and a generalized integral
equation obeyed by the operational calculus are discussed and
connections with certain analytic Feynman integrals are noted. This
volume is essentially self-contained and we only assume that the
reader has a reasonable, graduate level, background in analysis,
measure theory and functional analysis or operator theory. Much of
the necessary remaining background is supplied in the text itself.
As technology progresses, we are able to handle larger and larger
datasets. At the same time, monitoring devices such as electronic
equipment and sensors (for registering images, temperature, etc.)
have become more and more sophisticated. This high-tech revolution
offers the opportunity to observe phenomena in an increasingly
accurate way by producing statistical units sampled over a finer
and finer grid, with the measurement points so close that the data
can be considered as observations varying over a continuum. Such
continuous (or functional) data may occur in biomechanics (e.g.
human movements), chemometrics (e.g. spectrometric curves),
econometrics (e.g. the stock market index), geophysics (e.g.
spatio-temporal events such as El Nino or time series of satellite
images), or medicine (electro-cardiograms/electro-encephalograms).
It is well known that standard multivariate statistical analyses
fail with functional data. However, the great potential for
applications has encouraged new methodologies able to extract
relevant information from functional datasets. This Handbook aims
to present a state of the art exploration of this high-tech field,
by gathering together most of major advances in this area. Leading
international experts have contributed to this volume with each
chapter giving the key original ideas and comprehensive
bibliographical information. The main statistical topics
(classification, inference, factor-based analysis, regression
modelling, resampling methods, time series, random processes) are
covered in the setting of functional data. The twin challenges of
the subject are the practical issues of implementing new
methodologies and the theoretical techniques needed to expand the
mathematical foundations and toolbox. The volume therefore mixes
practical, methodological and theoretical aspects of the subject,
sometimes within the same chapter. As a consequence, this book
should appeal to a wide audience of engineers, practitioners and
graduate students, as well as academic researchers, not only in
statistics and probability but also in the numerous related
application areas.
Trace and determinant functionals on operator algebras provide a
means of constructing invariants in analysis, topology,
differential geometry, analytic number theory, and quantum field
theory. The consequent developments around such invariants have led
to significant advances both in pure mathematics and theoretical
physics. As the fundamental tools of trace theory have become well
understood and clear general structures have emerged, so the need
for specialist texts which explain the basic theoretical principles
and computational techniques has become increasingly urgent.
Providing a broad account of the theory of traces and determinants
on algebras of differential and pseudodifferential operators over
compact manifolds, this text is the first to deal with trace theory
in general, encompassing a number of the principle applications and
backed up by specific computations which set out in detail the
nuts-and-bolts of the basic theory. Both the microanalytic approach
to traces and determinants via pseudodifferential operator theory
and the more computational approach directed by applications in
geometric analysis, are developed in a general framework that will
be of interest to mathematicians and physicists in a number of
different fields.
For one- or two-semester junior or senior level courses in Advanced
Calculus, Analysis I, or Real Analysis. This text prepares students
for future courses that use analytic ideas, such as real and
complex analysis, partial and ordinary differential equations,
numerical analysis, fluid mechanics, and differential geometry.
This book is designed to challenge advanced students while
encouraging and helping weaker students. Offering readability,
practicality and flexibility, Wade presents fundamental theorems
and ideas from a practical viewpoint, showing students the
motivation behind the mathematics and enabling them to construct
their own proofs.
An introduction to statistical data mining, Data Analysis and Data
Mining is both textbook and professional resource. Assuming only a
basic knowledge of statistical reasoning, it presents core concepts
in data mining and exploratory statistical models to students and
professional statisticians-both those working in communications and
those working in a technological or scientific capacity-who have a
limited knowledge of data mining. This book presents key
statistical concepts by way of case studies, giving readers the
benefit of learning from real problems and real data. Aided by a
diverse range of statistical methods and techniques, readers will
move from simple problems to complex problems. Through these case
studies, authors Adelchi Azzalini and Bruno Scarpa explain exactly
how statistical methods work; rather than relying on the "push the
button" philosophy, they demonstrate how to use statistical tools
to find the best solution to any given problem. Case studies
feature current topics highly relevant to data mining, such web
page traffic; the segmentation of customers; selection of customers
for direct mail commercial campaigns; fraud detection; and
measurements of customer satisfaction. Appropriate for both
advanced undergraduate and graduate students, this much-needed book
will fill a gap between higher level books, which emphasize
technical explanations, and lower level books, which assume no
prior knowledge and do not explain the methodology behind the
statistical operations.
Thomas' Calculus: Early Transcendentals goes beyond memorizing
formulas and routine procedures to help you develop deeper
understanding. It guides you to a level of mathematical
proficiency, with additional support if needed through its clear
and intuitive explanations, current applications and generalized
concepts. Technology exercises in every section use the calculator
or computer for solving problems, and Computer Explorations offer
exercises requiring a computer algebra system like Maple or
Mathematica. The 15th Edition adds exercises, revises figures and
language for clarity, and updates many applications.
This book contains the latest developments of the theory of
discontinuous groups acting on homogenous spaces, from basic
concepts to a comprehensive exposition. It develops the newest
approaches and methods in the deformation theory of topological
modules and unitary representations and focuses on the geometry of
discontinuous groups of solvable Lie groups and their compact
extensions. It also presents proofs of recent results, computes
fundamental examples, and serves as an introduction and reference
for students and experienced researchers in Lie theory,
discontinuous groups, and deformation (and moduli) spaces.
Theoretical advances and new foundations have been reported at the
Conference for more than 40 years which has helped expand the range
of applications as well as the type of materials in response to
industrial and professional requirements. Since the conference
started it has attracted high quality papers that report further
advances in techniques that reduce or eliminate the type of meshes
associated with finite elements or finite differences, for
instance. As design, analysis and manufacture become more
integrated, the chances are that the users will be less aware of
the capabilities of the analytical techniques that are at the core
of the process. This reinforces the need to retain expertise in
certain specialised areas of numerical methods, such as BEM/MRM, to
ensure that all new tools perform satisfactorily in the integrated
process. The maturity of BEM since 1978 has resulted in a
substantial number of industrial applications, which demonstrate
the accuracy, robustness and easy use of the technique. Their range
still needs to be widened, taking into account the potentialities
of the Mesh Reduction techniques in general. The included papers
originate from the 46th conference on Boundary Elements and other
Mesh Reduction Methods (BEM/MRM) which acts as a forum to discuss
new ideas and critically compare results before the solution and
tools are released to the end users.
This book aims to provide an overview of the special functions of
fractional calculus and their applications in diffusion and random
search processes. The book contains detailed calculations for
various examples of anomalous diffusion, random search and
stochastic resetting processes, which can be easily followed by the
reader, who will be able to reproduce the obtained results. The
book will be intended for advanced undergraduate and graduate
students and researchers in physics, mathematics and other natural
sciences due to the various examples which will be provided in the
book.
The scientific field of data analysis is constantly expanding due
to the rapid growth of the computer industry and the wide
applicability of computational and algorithmic techniques, in
conjunction with new advances in statistical, stochastic and
analytic tools. There is a constant need for new, high-quality
publications to cover the recent advances in all fields of science
and engineering. This book is a collective work by a number of
leading scientists, computer experts, analysts, engineers,
mathematicians, probabilists and statisticians who have been
working at the forefront of data analysis and related applications.
The chapters of this collaborative work represent a cross-section
of current concerns, developments and research interests in the
above scientific areas. The collected material has been divided
into appropriate sections to provide the reader with both
theoretical and applied information on data analysis methods,
models and techniques, along with related applications.
This book is a general introduction to the statistical analysis of
networks, and can serve both as a research monograph and as a
textbook. Numerous fundamental tools and concepts needed for the
analysis of networks are presented, such as network modeling,
community detection, graph-based semi-supervised learning and
sampling in networks. The description of these concepts is
self-contained, with both theoretical justifications and
applications provided for the presented algorithms.Researchers,
including postgraduate students, working in the area of network
science, complex network analysis, or social network analysis, will
find up-to-date statistical methods relevant to their research
tasks. This book can also serve as textbook material for courses
related to thestatistical approach to the analysis of complex
networks.In general, the chapters are fairly independent and
self-supporting, and the book could be used for course composition
"a la carte". Nevertheless, Chapter 2 is needed to a certain degree
for all parts of the book. It is also recommended to read Chapter 4
before reading Chapters 5 and 6, but this is not absolutely
necessary. Reading Chapter 3 can also be helpful before reading
Chapters 5 and 7. As prerequisites for reading this book, a basic
knowledge in probability, linear algebra and elementary notions of
graph theory is advised. Appendices describing required notions
from the above mentioned disciplines have been added to help
readers gain further understanding.
This book provides a concrete introduction to a number of topics in
harmonic analysis, accessible at the early graduate level or, in
some cases, at an upper undergraduate level. Necessary
prerequisites to using the text are rudiments of the Lebesgue
measure and integration on the real line. It begins with a thorough
treatment of Fourier series on the circle and their applications to
approximation theory, probability, and plane geometry (the
isoperimetric theorem). Frequently, more than one proof is offered
for a given theorem to illustrate the multiplicity of approaches.
The second chapter treats the Fourier transform on Euclidean
spaces, especially the author's results in the three-dimensional
piecewise smooth case, which is distinct from the classical Gibbs -
Wilbraham phenomenon of one-dimensional Fourier analysis. The
Poisson summation formula treated in Chapter 3 provides an elegant
connection between Fourier series on the circle and Fourier
transforms on the real line, culminating in Landau's asymptotic
formulas for lattice points on a large sphere. Much of modern
harmonic analysis is concerned with the behavior of various linear
operators on the Lebesgue spaces Lp (Rn). Chapter 4 gives a gentle
introduction to these results, using the Riesz - Thorin theorem and
the Marcinkiewicz interpolation formula. One of the long-time users
of Fourier analysis is probability theory. In Chapter 5 the central
limit theorem, iterated log theorem, and Berry - Esseen theorems
are developed using the suitable Fourier-analytic tools. The final
chapter furnishes a gentle introduction to wavelet theory,
depending only on the L2 theory of the Fourier transform (the
Plancherel theorem). The basic notions of scale and location
parameters demonstrate the flexibility of the wavelet approach to
harmonic analysis. The text contains numerous examples and more
than 200 exercises, each located in close proximity to the related
theoretical material.
For a two-semester or three-semester course in Calculus for Life
Sciences. Calculus for Biology and Medicine, Third Edition,
addresses the needs of students in the biological sciences by
showing them how to use calculus to analyze natural
phenomena-without compromising the rigorous presentation of the
mathematics. While the table of contents aligns well with a
traditional calculus text, all the concepts are presented through
biological and medical applications. The text provides students
with the knowledge and skills necessary to analyze and interpret
mathematical models of a diverse array of phenomena in the living
world. Since this text is written for college freshmen, the
examples were chosen so that no formal training in biology is
needed.
This volume presents lectures given at the Wisła 20-21 Winter
School and Workshop: Groups, Invariants, Integrals, and
Mathematical Physics, organized by the Baltic Institute of
Mathematics. The lectures were dedicated to differential invariants
– with a focus on Lie groups, pseudogroups, and their orbit
spaces – and Poisson structures in algebra and geometry and are
included here as lecture notes comprising the first two chapters.
Following this, chapters combine theoretical and applied
perspectives to explore topics at the intersection of differential
geometry, differential equations, and category theory. Specific
topics covered include: The multisymplectic and variational nature
of Monge-Ampère equations in dimension four Integrability of
fifth-order equations admitting a Lie symmetry algebra Applications
of the van Kampen theorem for groupoids to computation of homotopy
types of striped surfaces A geometric framework to compare
classical systems of PDEs in the category of smooth manifolds
Groups, Invariants, Integrals, and Mathematical Physics is ideal
for graduate students and researchers working in these areas. A
basic understanding of differential geometry and category theory is
assumed.

Analysis in singular spaces is becoming an increasingly important
area of research, with motivation coming from the calculus of
variations, PDEs, geometric analysis, metric geometry and
probability theory, just to mention a few areas. In all these
fields, the role of measure theory is crucial and an appropriate
understanding of the interaction between the relevant
measure-theoretic framework and the objects under investigation is
important to a successful research. The aim of this book, which
gathers contributions from leading specialists with different
backgrounds, is that of creating a collection of various aspects of
measure theory occurring in recent research with the hope of
increasing interactions between different fields. List of
contributors: Luigi Ambrosio, Vladimir I. Bogachev, Fabio
Cavalletti, Guido De Philippis, Shouhei Honda, Tom Leinster,
Christian Leonard, Andrea Marchese, Mark W. Meckes, Filip Rindler,
Nageswari Shanmugalingam, Takashi Shioya, and Christina Sormani.
Complex analysis is found in many areas of applied mathematics,
from fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, signal processing, control
theory, mechanical and electrical engineering to quantum mechanics,
among others. And of course, it is a fundamental branch of pure
mathematics. The coverage in this text includes advanced topics
that are not always considered in more elementary texts. These
topics include, a detailed treatment of univalent functions,
harmonic functions, subharmonic and superharmonic functions,
Nevanlinna theory, normal families, hyperbolic geometry, iteration
of rational functions, and analytic number theory. As well, the
text includes in depth discussions of the Dirichlet Problem,
Green's function, Riemann Hypothesis, and the Laplace transform.
Some beautiful color illustrations supplement the text of this most
elegant subject.
In addition to expanding and clarifying a number of sections of the
first edition, it generalizes the analysis that eliminates the
noncausal pre-acceleration so that it applies to removing any
pre-deceleration as well. It also introduces a robust power series
solution to the equation of motion that produces an extremely
accurate solution to problems such as the motion of electrons in
uniform magnetic fields.
