This volume presents a collection of research articles arising from the conference on ""Convex and Complex: Perspectives on Positivity in Geometry,"" held in Cetraro, Italy, from October 31-November 4, 2022. The conference celebrated the 70th birthday of Bo Berndtsson and the vitality of current research across complex and convex geometry, as well ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Ends and Boundaries of Groups, held in honor of Michael Mihalik's 70th birthday, from April 15-16, 2023, at the University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio. The papers cover current topics in geometric group theory and related topology. Four survey papers discuss hyperbolic actions, ......
Symmetries are a common feature of real-world phenomena in many fields, including physics, biology, materials science, and engineering. They can help understand the behavior of a system and optimize engineering designs. Nonlinear effects such as delays, nonsmoothness, and hysteresis can have a significant impact on the dynamics and contribute to ......
Building Colorful Trains to Manifest Pascal's Triangle, Fibonacci Numbers, and Much More
This book provides an active-learning approach to combinatorial reasoning and proof through a thoughtful sequence of low threshold, high ceiling activities. A novel feature is its narrative format, with much of the text written from the perspective of a student working through the material with peers. Furthermore, each chapter includes detailed ......
Being both a beautiful theory and a valuable tool, Lie algebras form a very important area of mathematics. This modern introduction targets entry-level graduate students. It might also be of interest to those wanting to refresh their knowledge of the area and be introduced to newer material. Infinite-dimensional algebras are treated extensively ......
Topology is the field of mathematics that studies those properties of a shape which persist when the shape gently evolves and changes its specific form. This book gives a playful and intuitive introduction to topology, favoring simple and crisp illustrations over long explanations and formal definitions. The material includes some of the classic ......
This volume contains the proceedings of the virtual AMS Special Session on Equivariant Cohomology, held March 19-20, 2022. Equivariant topology is the algebraic topology of spaces with symmetries. At the meeting, ""equivariant cohomology"" was broadly interpreted to include related topics in equivariant topology and geometry such as Bredon ......
The Memoirs of the AMS is devoted to the publication of new research in all areas of pure and applied mathematics. The Memoirs is designed particularly to publish long papers of groups of cognate papers in book form, and is under the supervision of the Editorial Committee of the AMS journal Transactions of the American Mathematical Society. All ......
This volume contains a collection of papers that focus on recent research in the broad field of special functions. The articles cover topics related to differential equations, dynamic systems, integrable systems, billiards, and random matrix theory. Linear classical special functions, such as hypergeometric functions, Heun functions, and various ......
