Catalyst technologies account for over $1 trillion of revenues in the U.S. economy alone. The applications range from medicines and alternative energy fuel cell technologies to the development of new
Researchers in the computer and biological sciences explore some of the computational biology approaches to analyzing genomic sequences, looking first at discovering patterns in DNA and RNA then at pe
Fractional calculus is undergoing rapidly and ongoing development. We can already recognize, that within its framework new concepts and strategies emerge, which lead to new challenging insights and su
This monograph has the ambitious aim of developing a mathematical theory of complex biological systems with special attention to the phenomena of ageing, degeneration and repair of biological tissues
This book aims to provide useful tips for the understanding of scientific research processes and practical advice for people engaged in this field. It is a reflection of the author’s more than 40 year
This book examines the interplay of two sets of policies: the Chinese government’s policies to its borderlands and international relations. It proposes a conceptual framework and argues that China’s p
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the discovery of buckminsterfullerene--first known as buckyballs and now as fullerenes--chemists and physicists summarize the current state of fullerenes and the r
The subject matter in this volume is Schwarz's lemma which has become a crucial theme in many branches of research in mathematics for more than a hundred years to date. This volume of lecture notes fo
Strong coupling gauge theories may be among those tested in the Large Hadron Collider, which is now in operation. Physicists here explore aspects of the theories that may have to be refined and clarif
Singh (Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay) presents a textbook for courses or self-study by beginning to advanced graduate students who have at least a rudimentary knowledge of groups, rings, fiel
This book provides a detailed account of quantum theory with a much greater emphasis on the Heisenberg equations of motion and the matrix method. No other texts have come close to discuss quantum theo
This book is the essential revision guide for neurology in the Membership of the Royal College of Physicians (MRCP). Neurology has been rated as the most difficult subject in MRCP examinations and th
This volume offers the reader practical methods to compute the option prices in the incomplete asset markets. The [GLP \& MEMM] pricing models are clearly introduced, and the properties of these mode
In many fields of modern physics, classical mechanics plays a key role. However, the teaching of mechanics at the undergraduate level often confines the applications to old-fashioned devices such as c

This book contains the Proceedings of the Fifth Meeting on CPT and Lorentz Symmetry, held at Indiana University in Bloomington from June 28 to July 2, 2010. The Meeting focused on tests of these funda
This book contains the recent contributions of Edwin J Elton and Martin J Gruber to the field of investments. All of the articles in this book have been published in the leading finance and economic j
Human security is a new paradigm for security, development and justice. Since it was first proposed in the 1990s, there has been an endless debate between its proponents and critics, and even among it
This book presents innovative approaches from database researchers supporting the challenging process of knowledge discovery in biomedicine. Ranging from how to effectively store and organize biomedic
The present volume is the result of the international workshop on New Trends in Quantum Integrable Systems that was held in Kyoto, Japan, from 27 to 31 July 2009. As a continuation of the RIMS Researc
This book is designed for a one-semester course, for undergraduates, not necessarily chemistry majors, who need to know something about physical chemistry. The emphasis is not on mathematical rigor, b
This textbook is written by a renowned haematologist with more than 30 years of experience in teaching haematology to medical students and whose pedagogical and writing skills are widely admired with
