Algebraic groups are treated in this volume from a group theoretical point of view and the obtained results are compared with the analogous issues in the theory of Lie groups. The main body of the tex
The notion of an operad supplies both a conceptual and effective device to handle a variety of algebraic structures in various situations. Operads were introduced 40 years ago in algebraic topology in
This monograph deals with approximation and noise cancellation of dynamical systems which include linear and nonlinear input/output relations. It will be of special interest to researchers, engineers
This is the first book-length treatment of the Variational Bayes (VB) approximation in signal processing. It has been written as a self-contained, self-learning guide for academic and industrial resea
Assuming knowledge of algebraic number theory and geometry, this text develops the basic concepts of Drinfeld modules, explicit class field theory, and the algebraic incarnations of gamma and zeta val
* Learn how complex numbers may be used to solve algebraic equations, as well as their geometric interpretation* Theoretical aspects are augmented with rich exercises and problems at various levels of
Traditionally a subject of number theory, continued fractions appear in dynamical systems, algebraic geometry, topology, and even celestial mechanics. The rise of computational geometry has resulted i
In this enjoyable and lightheaded volume, he gathers a plethora of cultural, biological, geometrical, algebraic, and planetary phenomena of our lives related to the number five. He investigates these

Welcome to the wonderful world of algebraic computation!This activity book offers puzzles, games, and activities suitable for students who want to have fun while becoming more adept in mathematical sk
This book on linear algebra and geometry is based on a course given by renowned academician I.R. Shafarevich at Moscow State University. The book begins with the theory of linear algebraic equations a
Classical valuation theory has applications in number theory and class field theory as well as in algebraic geometry, e.g. in a divisor theory for curves. But the noncommutative equivalent is mainly
Singular systems which are also referred to as descriptor systems, semi-state systems, differential- algebraic systems or generalized state-space systems have attracted much attention because of their
Writing for freshmen and sophomores in college or advanced high school students, Lin (National Taiwan Normal U.) takes the view that recently geometric linear algebra has become too algebraic and tack
In many areas of mathematics some “higher operations” are arising. These havebecome so important that several research projects refer to such expressions. Higher operationsform new types of algebras.
Since 2002, FoLLI has awarded an annual prize for outstanding dissertations in the fields of Logic, Language and Information. This book is based on the PhD thesis of Marco Kuhlmann, joint winner of th
