This book addresses a broad range of topics, from newly proposed
techniques in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning to
various applications such as decision-making, pattern
classification for data, image and signals, robotics, and control
systems. Big data applications are discussed, while improved
methods and wholly new methods for using deep learning technologies
are also presented. The topics covered are comprehensive and
reflect a wide range of technologies in the area. In particular,
the latest methods in deep learning approaches and applications are
discussed in many parts of the book, providing a better
understanding of these new technologies. The book's general scope
includes the latest methods in the areas of Artificial Intelligence
and Machine Learning for use in distributed computing as well as
decision support systems. As the book covers a rather wide area,
its intended readership ranges from those working in AI and machine
learning technologies to those working on applications utilizing
these technologies, researchers new to these areas who need
background information on the technologies and applications, and
more experienced researchers looking for new methods and
applications.
The first part is devoted to colloidal particles and stochastic
dynamics, mainly concerned with recent authoritative results in the
study of interactions between colloidal particles and transport
properties in colloids and ferrocolloids. Recent advances in
non-equilibrium statistical physics, such as stochastic resonance,
Brownian motors, ratchets and noise-induced transport are also
reported. The second part deals with biological systems and
polymers. Here, standard simulation methodology to treat
diffusional dynamics of multi-protein systems and proton transport
in macromolecules is presented. Results of nervous system,
spectroscopy of biological membrane models, and Monte Carlo
simulations of polymers chains are also discussed. The third part
is concerned with granular materials and quantum systems, in
particular an effective-medium theory for a random system is
reported. Additionally, a comprehensive treatment of spin and
charge order in the vortex lattice of the cuprates, both
theoretical and experimental, is included. Thermodynamics analogies
between Bose-Einstein condensation and black-body radiation are
also presented.The last part of the book contains recent
developments of certain topics of liquid crystals and molecular
fluids, including nonequilibrium thermal light scattering from
nematic liquid crystals, relaxation in the kinetic Ising model on
the periodic in homogeneous chain, models for thermotropic
liquid-crystals, thermodynamic properties of fluids with discrete
potentials as well as of fluids determined from the speed of sound
effective potentials, and second viral coefficient for polar
fluids.
The FIRST MEXICAN MEETING ON MATHEMATICAL AND EXPERI MENTAL PHYSICS
was held at EL COLEGIO N ACIONAL in Mexico Cit y, Mexico, from
September 10 to 14, 2001. This event consisted of the LEOPOLDO
GARciA-COLiN SCHERER Medal Lecture, delivered by Prof. Nicholas G.
van Kampen, a series of plenary talks by Leopoldo Garcia-Colin,
Giinter Nimtz, Luis F. Rodriguez, Ruoon Barrera, and Donald Saari,
and of three parallel symposia, namely, Cosmology and Gravitation,
Statistical Physics and Beyond, and Hydrodynamics and Dynamical
Systems. The response from the Physics community was enthusiastic,
with over 200 participants and around 80 speakers, from allover the
world: USA, Canada, Mexico, Germany, France, Holland, United
Kingdom, Switzerland, Spain, and Hungary. The main aim of the
conference is to provide a scenario to Mexican researchers on the
topics of Mathematical and Experimental Physics in order to keep
them in contact with work going on in other parts of the world and
at the same time to motivate and support the young and mid career
researchers from our country. To achieve this goal, we decided to
the most distinguished experts in the subjects of the invite as
lecturers conference and to give the opportunity to young scientist
to communi cate the results of their work. The plan is to celebrate
this international endeavor every three years.
The first part is devoted to the topic of quantum gravity and
string theories, mainly concerned with recent authoritative results
in the study of discretizations in classical and quantum general
relativity, non-commutative theories of gravity, (2+1)-dimensional
supergravity, and Berezin description of Kaehler quotients. The
field to particle transition problem is also considered.
The second part deals with cosmology and black holes. Here,
cosmological, inflationary, and braneworld scenarios are
investigated. Moreover, some scalar field models for the dark
matter content of the universe as well as new models of
protostellar collapse and fragmentation are presented. This part
includes also a study of de Sitter/Anti-de Sitter phase transition
for black holes, an understanding of hairy black holes and an
improvement of the no-hair theorem proof for the Proca field.
The third part is devoted to exact solutions, in particular
classical and quantum cosmological solutions in scalar-tensor
theories. Additionally, a discussion about conformally flat
axisymmetric spacetimes and some considerations on accelerated
expansion in scalar-tensor theories are presented.
Experimental and some mixed topics are included in the final part.
Among them is an experimental foundation of nonlocality and
superluminal signal velocity in photonic tunneling, a proposal for
testing the weak equivalence principle for charged particles in
space. Moreover, a possible new type of skewon field linked to
Maxwell theory is also presented, and an authoritative discussion
at the interface of quantum and gravitational realms.

In light of the Sustainable Development Goals, sustainability is a
factor to consider for understanding the changes that are coming in
the business world and in different areas of management. Companies
must reorient their business objectives towards sustainable and
responsible production for the environment and society. In this
context of change, it is important to open the debate and obtain
more thorough knowledge on how companies should change their
leaderships strategies and carry out their financial planning, as
well as analyze the risk of their clients and innovative projects
that respect the environment. Financial Management and Risk
Analysis Strategies for Business Sustainability proposes a series
of practical and theoretical perspectives on how the business world
has to evolve to adapt to the new situation the world has reached
due to undeniable climate change forcing businesses to redefine
their productive processes and internal organization. Topics
highlighted include financial management procedures, corporate
social responsibility, risk analysis, financial literacy, and
innovation in sustainability and sustainable development. This book
is a useful reference source for managers, executives, engineers,
business professionals, financial analysts, researchers,
academicians, and students in the areas of management, human
resources, accounting and finance, taxation, environmental
economics, and some engineering areas.
