An Illustrated Theory of Numbers gives a comprehensive introduction to number theory, with complete proofs, worked examples, and exercises. Its exposition reflects the most recent scholarship in mathematics and its history. Almost 500 sharp illustrations accompany elegant proofs, from prime decomposition through quadratic reciprocity. Geometric ......
This book reveals how univalent functions appear in quantum probability theory. Building upon the recently established one-to-one correspondence between Loewner theory and the theory of non-commutative additive processes, the author invites readers to explore the interplay between complex analysis, classical probability theory, and quantum ......
Hermann Minkowski (1864-1909) was a prominent member of the famous golden epoch of mathematics at Gottingen University in Germany, which started with Karl Friedrich Gauss in 1807 and continued into the twentieth century (until the beginning of World War II). Minkowski is well known for his foundational work introducing the ""Minkowski spacetime"" ......
How are maps created? What is the process that enables a location on the Earth's surface to become a point on a sheet of paper? The answer lies in map projections. This book provides a highly readable account of the theory that underpins all major map projections, starting from the concept of map distortion, which all flat maps necessarily ......
From Combinatorics to Number Theory, $p$-adic Analysis, Commutative andNon-Commutative Algebra
This book presents the theory of integer-valued polynomials, as transformed by the work of Manjul Bhargava in the late 1990s. Building from the core ideas in commutative algebra and number theory, the author weaves a panoramic perspective that encompasses results in combinatorics, ultrametric analysis, probability, dynamical systems, and ......
This richly illustrated text guides readers to discover the beautiful structure of mathematical billiards. Centered around expertly designed problem sets, the book incrementally builds up ideas through threads of related problems, fostering curiosity, exploration, and conversation. Working through the problems, the reader builds an understanding ......
Inverse problems are those where, from ""external"" observations of a hidden ""black box"" system (a patient's body, nontransparent industrial object, interior of the Earth, etc.), one needs to recover the unknown parameters of the system. A prototypical example is the by now classical Calderon problem, forming the basis of Electrical Impedance ......
