This book is a collection of Amitrajeet A Batabyal's most important papers on the environment and economic development. This book's uniqueness stems from the fact that it uses novel modeling tools tha
This book consists of surveys of high-frequency financial data analysis and econometric forecasting. Some of the chapters were presented as tutorials to an audience in the Econometric Forecasting and
Rokach (Ben-Gurion U.) and Maimon (Tel-Aviv U.) believe decision trees, already popular due to their success and simplicity, do a great job of predicting and explaining the relationship between some m
Materials development has reached a point where it is difficult for a single material to satisfy the needs of sophisticated applications in the modern world. Nanocomposite films and coatings achieve m
It is not so much an absence of the right theory that has thwarted attempts by physicists to understand the natural world, contends Rosen (City U. of New York), but the unacknowledged presence of deep
Khalkhali (U. of Western Ontario, Canada) and Marcolli (Max Planck Institute for Mathematics, Germany) offer a volume that contains eight lectures that were given at the International Workshop on Nonc
Kleinert's work includes flexible manipulation of coordinates that led to his evaluation of the path integral for the Coulomb potential. Here he begins with the basics, explaining such topics as Galil
Fritzsch (physics, U. of Munich, Germany) recounts how in the 1960s he left East Germany during the Cold War. He describes how he protested the regime in Leipzig while he was a student, escaped to Bul
This unique book provides a unified and systematic account of internal, external and unsteady slow viscous flows, including the latest advances of the last decade, some of which are due to the author.
