Gathering selected, revised and extended contributions from the conference ‘Forecasting and
Risk Management for Renewable Energy FOREWER’, which took place in Paris in June 2017,
this book focuses on the applications of statistics to the risk management and forecasting
problems arising in the renewable energy industry. The different contributions explore all
aspects of the energy production chain: forecasting and probabilistic modelling of renewable
resources, including probabilistic forecasting approaches; modelling and forecasting of wind
and solar power production; prediction of electricity demand; optimal operation of microgrids
involving renewable production; and finally the effect of renewable production on electricity
market prices. Written by experts in statistics, probability, risk management, economics and
electrical engineering, this multidisciplinary volume will serve as a reference on renewable
energy risk management and at the same time as a source of inspiration for statisticians and
probabilists aiming to work on energy-related problems.

Introductory papers on the subjects of the conference
General and complete (not technical) presentation of some subjects
Explanations of topics in detail
Emphasis on the connection between different areas of mathematics
This book presents the proceedings of the international conference Particle Systems and Partial
Differential Equations V, which was held at the University of Minho, Braga, Portugal, from the
28th to 30th November 2016. It includes papers on mathematical problems motivated by
various applications in physics, engineering, economics, chemistry, and biology. The purpose of
the conference was to bring together prominent researchers working in the fields of particle
systems and partial differential equations, providing a venue for them to present their latest
findings and discuss their areas of expertise. Further, it was intended to introduce a vast and
varied public, including young researchers, to the subject of interacting particle systems, its
underlying motivation, and its relation to partial differential equations. The book appeals to
probabilists, analysts and also to mathematicians in general whose work focuses on topics in
mathematical physics, stochastic processes and differential equations, as well as to physicists
working in the area of statistical mechanics and kinetic theory.

This book focuses on the recent development of methodologies and computation methods in
mathematical and statistical modelling, computational science and applied mathematics. It
emphasizes the development of theories and applications, and promotes interdisciplinary
endeavour among mathematicians, statisticians, scientists, engineers and researchers from
other disciplines. The book provides ideas, methods and tools in mathematical and statistical
modelling that have been developed for a wide range of research fields, including medical,
health sciences, biology, environmental science, engineering, physics and chemistry, finance,
economics and social sciences. It presents original results addressing real-world problems. The
contributions are products of a highly successful meeting held in August 2017 on the main
campus of Wilfrid Laurier University, in Waterloo, Canada, the International Conference on
Applied Mathematics, Modeling and Computational Science (AMMCS-2017). They make this
book a valuable resource for readers interested not only in a broader overview of the methods,
ideas and tools in mathematical and statistical approaches, but also in how they can attain
valuable insights into problems arising in other disciplines.

Highlights new developments in the main directions of Clifford analysis
Offers new perspectives and outlines current trends for researchers
interested in or working on these topics
Theoretical contributions were written by leading experts in the field, while
contributions of an expository nature were written for persons working in
these areas and are easily accessible for non-specialists
Commemorates the work of Paul Dirac
This book, intended to commemorate the work of Paul Dirac, highlights new developments in
the main directions of Clifford analysis. Just as complex analysis is based on the algebra of the
complex numbers, Clifford analysis is based on the geometric Clifford algebras. Many methods
and theorems from complex analysis generalize to higher dimensions in various ways.
However, many new features emerge in the process, and much of this work is still in its
infancy. Some of the leading mathematicians working in this field have contributed to this book
in conjunction with “Clifford Analysis and Related Topics: a conference in honor of Paul A.M.
Dirac,” which was held at Florida State University, Tallahassee, on December 15-17, 2014. The
content reflects talks given at the conference, as well as contributions from mathematicians
who were invited but were unable to attend. Hence much of the mathematics presented here
is not only highly topical, but also cannot be found elsewhere in print. Given its scope, the
book will be of interest to mathematicians and physicists working in these areas, as well as
students seeking to catch up on the latest developments.

Offers contributions from broad areas related to quantum mysteries including
working experimental and theoretical physicists, mathematicians, quantum
information scientists, and philosophers
Discusses the boundaries of our current understanding of the quantum world
including non-locality, complementarity, and uncertainty
Includes new mathematical ideas that approach quantum foundations
including operator algebras, category theory, topos theory, and quantum
information theory
This volume contains papers based on presentations at the “Nagoya Winter Workshop 2015:
Reality and Measurement in Algebraic Quantum Theory (NWW 2015)”, held in Nagoya, Japan, in
March 2015. The foundations of quantum theory have been a source of mysteries, puzzles, and
confusions, and have encouraged innovations in mathematical languages to describe, analyze,
and delineate this wonderland. Both ontological and epistemological questions about quantum
reality and measurement have been placed in the center of the mysteries explored originally by
Bohr, Heisenberg, Einstein, and Schrodinger. This volume describes how those traditional
problems are nowadays explored from the most advanced perspectives. It includes new
research results in quantum information theory, quantum measurement theory, information
thermodynamics, operator algebraic and category theoretical foundations of quantum theory,
and the interplay between experimental and theoretical investigations on the uncertainty
principle. This book is suitable for a broad audience of mathematicians, theoretical and
experimental physicists, and philosophers of science.

This joint meeting of QTS10 and LT12 is unique in the equal and balanced
representation of theoretical physicists, mathematical physicists and
mathematicians. It served as interface and as a meeting place for these
groups of scientists
The LT series covers the whole field of Lie Theory in its widest sense together
with its applications in many facets of physics
There is a fruitful overlap between the QTS series and the LT series which
makes the set of the two volumes unique
This book is the first volume of proceedings from the joint conference X International
Symposium “Quantum Theory and Symmetries” (QTS-X) and XII International Workshop “Lie
Theory and Its Applications in Physics” (LT-XII), held on 19?25 June 2017 in Varna, Bulgaria.
The QTS series was founded on the core principle that symmetries underlie all descriptions of
quantum systems. It has since evolved into a symposium at the forefront of theoretical and
mathematical physics. The LT series covers the whole field of Lie theory in its widest sense,
together with its applications in many areas of physics. As an interface between mathematics
and physics, the workshop serves as a meeting place for mathematicians and theoretical and
mathematical physicists. In dividing the material between the two volumes, the Editor has
sought to select papers that are more oriented toward mathematics for the first volume, and
those focusing more on physics for the second. However, this division is relative, since many
papers are equally suitable for either volume.
