A number of important topics in complex analysis and geometry are covered in this excellent introductory text. Written by experts in the subject, each chapter unfolds from the basics to the more complex. The exposition is rapid-paced and efficient, without compromising proofs and examples that enable the reader to grasp the essentials. The most basic type of domain examined is the bounded symmetric domain, originally described and classified by Cartan and Harish- Chandra. Two of the five parts of the text deal with these domains: one introduces the subject through the theory of semisimple Lie algebras (Koranyi), and the other through Jordan algebras and triple systems (Roos). Larger classes of domains and spaces are furnished by the pseudo-Hermitian symmetric spaces and related R-spaces. These classes are covered via a study of their geometry and a presentation and classification of their Lie algebraic theory (Kaneyuki). In the fourth part of the book, the heat kernels of the symmetric spaces belonging to the classical Lie groups are determined (Lu). Explicit computations are made for each case, giving precise results and complementing the more abstract and general methods presented. Also explored are recent developments in the field, in particular, the study of complex semigroups which generalize complex tube domains and function spaces on them (Faraut). This volume will be useful as a graduate text for students of Lie group theory with connections to complex analysis, or as a self-study resource for newcomers to the field. Readers will reach the frontiers of the subject in a considerably shorter time than with existing texts.
The international symposium on number theory and analysis in memory of the late famous Chinese mathematician Prof. Hua Loo Keng was co-sponsored by the Institute of Mathematics, Academia Sinica and the University of Science and Technology of China. lt took place between August Ist and 7th of 1988 on the campus of Tsing Hua University, and some 150 mathematicians were pres- ent. The symposium was carried out in two separate sections: number theory and analysis. This is retlected in the publication ofa set oftwo volumes, the first one on Number Theory edited by Professor Wang Yuan and the second on Analysis by Professors Gong Sheng, Lu Qi-keng and Yang Lo. The distinguished list of main speakers and the contents of these two vol- umes reflect the high level of the mathematical activity throughout the seven days. W e pay special tribute to our main speakers professors Chuang, Conn, Ding, Drasin, Fitzgerald, Gaier, Gong, Grauert, Gu, Hejhal, Iyanaga, Karatsuba, Koranyi, Liao, Lu, Pan, Richert, Satake, Schmidt, Siu, Tatuzawa, Tsang, Vladimirov, Y. Wang, G. Y. Wang, Wustholz and Yang, who gave the excellent one hour lectures, and also to the participants who gave contributed talks on their own research work. The discussions among the mathematicians were always in a warm atmosphere. Our thanks go to professors Chern, Subbarao and Yau for their contributions to these proceedings.
