The Abel Prize 2018-2022 (1st ed. 2023): Helge Holden, Ragni Piene The Abel Prize 2018-2022 (1st ed. 2023)
Helge Holden, Ragni Piene
R3,998 Discovery Miles 39 980 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

The book presents the winners of the Abel Prize in mathematics for the period 2018–2022:  - Robert P. Langlands (2018) - Karen K. Uhlenbeck (2019) - Hillel Furstenberg and Gregory Margulis (2020) - Lászlo Lóvász and Avi Wigderson (2021) - Dennis P. Sullivan (2022) The profiles feature autobiographical information as well as a scholarly description of each mathematician’s work. In addition, each profile contains a Curriculum Vitae, a complete bibliography, and the full citation from the prize committee.   The book also includes photos from the period 2018–2022 showing many of the additional activities connected with the Abel Prize. This book follows on The Abel Prize: 2003–2007. The First Five Years (Springer, 2010) and The Abel Prize 2008–2012 (Springer, 2014) as well as on The Abel Prize 2013–2017 (Springer, 2019), which profile the previous Abel Prize laureates.

Geometric Modeling and Algebraic Geometry (Hardcover, 2008 ed.): Bert Juttler, Ragni Piene Geometric Modeling and Algebraic Geometry (Hardcover, 2008 ed.)
Bert Juttler, Ragni Piene
R2,803 Discovery Miles 28 030 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Geometric Modeling and Algebraic Geometry, though closely related, are traditionally represented by two almost disjoint scientific communities. Both fields deal with objects defined by algebraic equations, but the objects are studied in different ways. In 12 chapters written by leading experts, this book presents recent results which rely on the interaction of both fields. Some of these results have been obtained from a major European project in geometric modeling.

The Abel Prize 2008-2012 (Hardcover, 2014 ed.): Helge Holden, Ragni Piene The Abel Prize 2008-2012 (Hardcover, 2014 ed.)

Covering the years 2008-2012, this bookprofilesthe life and work of recent winners of the Abel Prize:
. John G. Thompson and Jacques Tits, 2008
. MikhailGromov, 2009
. John T. Tate Jr., 2010
. John W. Milnor, 2011
. Endre Szemeredi, 2012.
The profiles feature autobiographical information as well as a description of each mathematician's work. In addition, each profile contains a complete bibliography, a curriculum vitae, as well as photos old and new. As an added feature, interviews with the Laureates are presented on an accompanying web site (http: //extras.springer.com/).

The book also presents a history of the Abel Prize written by the historian Kim Helsvig, and includes a facsimile of aletter from Niels Henrik Abel, which is transcribed, translated into English, and placed into historical perspectiveby Christian Skau.

This book follows onThe Abel Prize: 2003-2007, The First Five Years(Springer, 2010), which profiles the work of the first Abel Prize winners.

Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling (Hardcover, 2006 ed.): Mohamed Elkadi, Bernard Mourrain, Ragni Piene Algebraic Geometry and Geometric Modeling (Hardcover, 2006 ed.)

Algebraic Geometry provides an impressive theory targeting the understanding of geometric objects defined algebraically. Geometric Modeling uses every day, in order to solve practical and difficult problems, digital shapes based on algebraic models. In this book, we have collected articles bridging these two areas. The confrontation of the different points of view results in a better analysis of what the key challenges are and how they can be met. We focus on the following important classes of problems: implicitization, classification, and intersection. The combination of illustrative pictures, explicit computations and review articles will help the reader to handle these subjects.

The book presents the winners of the Abel Prize in mathematics for the period 2013-17: Pierre Deligne (2013); Yakov G. Sinai (2014); John Nash Jr. and Louis Nirenberg (2015); Sir Andrew Wiles (2016); and Yves Meyer (2017). The profiles feature autobiographical information as well as a scholarly description of each mathematician's work. In addition, each profile contains a Curriculum Vitae, a complete bibliography, and the full citation from the prize committee. The book also includes photos for the period 2003-2017 showing many of the additional activities connected with the Abel Prize. As an added feature, video interviews with the Laureates as well as videos from the prize ceremony are provided at an accompanying website (http://extras.springer.com/). This book follows on The Abel Prize: 2003-2007. The First Five Years (Springer, 2010) and The Abel Prize 2008-2012 (Springer 2014), which profile the work of the previous Abel Prize winners.

R1,615 Discovery Miles 16 150 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

A unique series of fascinating research papers on subjects related to the work of Niels Henrik Abel, written by some of the foremost specialists in their fields. Some of the authors have been specifically invited to present papers, discussing the influence of Abel in a mathematical-historical context. Others have submitted papers presented at the Abel Bicentennial Conference, Oslo June 3-8, 2002. The idea behind the book has been to produce a text covering a substantial part of the legacy of Abel, as perceived at the beginning of the 21st century.
