Book Details

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Higher Structures in Topology,
Geometry, and Physics, held virtually on March 26?27, 2022.

The articles give a snapshot survey of the current topics surrounding the mathematical formulation of field theories.
There is an intricate interplay between geometry, topology, and algebra which captures these theories.
The hallmark are higher structures, which one can consider as the secondary algebraic or geometric background
on which the theories are formulated. The higher structures considered in the volume are generalizations of operads,
models for conformal field theories, string topology, open/closed field theories, BF/BV formalism, actions on
Hochschild complexes and related complexes, and their geometric and topological aspects.

Readership

Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in algebraic and topological aspects of quantum field theory.

Whatfs Happening in the Mathematical Sciences, Volume 13

Softcover ISBN: 978-1-4704-7490-4
Expected availability date: September 08, 2024
2024; 126 pp

Book Details

The Whatfs Happening in the Mathematical Sciences series presents a selection of recent discoveries and exciting
fields of research in mathematics, explained in depth but in a slow-paced, reader-friendly way.

In the first few months of 2023, artificial gbrainsh like ChatGPT and GPT-4 were constantly in the news, and they
have already turned into big business. One chapter in this book, gDeep Learning: Part Math, Part Alchemyh,
explains how math disentangles hype from reality and explains some of the remarkable advances of machine learning.
Meanwhile, gOrganizing the Chaos Inside the Brainh explores animal brains, and describes how biologists can apply
chaos theory to simulate the wanderings of a fly from firing data on neurons within its brain.

This issue of What's Happening also includes many treats for readers who like pure math?especially those who are
interested in geometry. In recent months and years, there have been unexpected discoveries in tiling
(gOne Stone to Rule Them Allh), sphere-packing in more than three dimensions (gA Fascination of Spheresh) and
the reconstruction of three-dimensional scenes from two-dimensional images (gMulti-View Geometry: E Pluribus Unumh).
The chapter gHow to Draw an Alternate Universeh will, as promised, open a door to a completely different, non-Euclidean
universe?or several of them. Shakespearefs words, gsomething rich and strangeh, only begin to describe them.

In gHow Mathematicians Unearthed the Stubborn Secrets of Fano Varietiesh, readers will learn about one of the building
blocks of algebraic geometry, the branch of geometry that deals with surfaces defined by polynomial equations.
The chapter gMissing One Digith addresses a seemingly elementary problem in number theory: how many prime numbers
do not have a g7h in them? The answer is easy to guess?but hard to prove. gFluid Flow: Two Paths to a Singularityh
discusses another guess that is hard to prove: can fluids in an enclosed region develop gsingularitiesh akin to a breaking
wave? Computer evidence is mounting that they can?including some evidence from machine learning algorithms.
(Which brings us full circle back to the gDeep Learningh chapter.)

Dana Mackenzie has written for the What's Happening series since Volume 6, published in 2006. In this volume
he is joined by Leila Sloman, whose name will be familiar to many readers from her work for Quanta Magazine.

Quantum Computation and Quantum Information:
A Mathematical Perspective

Hardcover ISBN: 978-1-4704-7557-4
Expected availability date: September 22, 2024
Graduate Studies in Mathematics, Volume: 243; 2024; 204 pp
MSC: Primary 81; 68; 94; 20

Book Details

This book presents the basics of quantum computing and quantum information theory. It emphasizes the mathematical
aspects and the historical continuity of both algorithms and information theory when passing from classical to quantum
settings.

The book begins with several classical algorithms relevant for quantum computing and of interest in their own right.
The postulates of quantum mechanics are then presented as a generalization of classical probability. Complete,
rigorous, and self-contained treatments of the algorithms of Shor, Simon, and Grover are given.
Passing to quantum information theory, the author presents it as a straightforward adaptation of Shannon's
foundations to information theory. Both Shannon's theory and its adaptation to the quantum setting are explained
in detail. The book concludes with a chapter on the use of representation theory in quantum information theory.
It shows how all known entropy inequalities, including the celebrated strong subadditivity of von Neumann entropy,
may be obtained from a representation theory perspective.

With many exercises in each chapter, the book is designed to be used as a textbook for a course in quantum
computing and quantum information theory. Prerequisites are elementary undergraduate probability and undergraduate
algebra, both linear and abstract. No prior knowledge of quantum mechanics or information theory is required.

Readership

Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in the mathematical aspects of quantum computing.
