This ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF MATHEMATICS aims to be a reference work for
all parts of mathe matics. It is a translation with updates and
editorial comments of the Soviet Mathematical Encyclopaedia
published by 'Soviet Encyclopaedia Publishing House' in five
volumes in 1977-1985. The annotated translation consists of ten
volumes including a special index volume. There are three kinds of
articles in this ENCYCLOPAEDIA. First of all there are survey-type
articles dealing with the various main directions in mathematics
(where a rather fine subdivi sion has been used). The main
requirement for these articles has been that they should give a
reasonably complete up-to-date account of the current state of
affairs in these areas and that they should be maximally
accessible. On the whole, these articles should be understandable
to mathematics students in their first specialization years, to
graduates from other mathematical areas and, depending on the
specific subject, to specialists in other domains of science, en
gineers and teachers of mathematics. These articles treat their
material at a fairly general level and aim to give an idea of the
kind of problems, techniques and concepts involved in the area in
question. They also contain background and motivation rather than
precise statements of precise theorems with detailed definitions
and technical details on how to carry out proofs and constructions.
The second kind of article, of medium length, contains more
detailed concrete problems, results and techniques."
