Summary

Complex analysis is a central part of modern analytical thinking. It is used in engineering, physics, mathematics, astrophysics, and many other fields. It provides powerful tools for analysis and often yields pleasing and unanticipated answers. The purpose is to make complex analysis accessible to mathematics, engineering, and many other students. There are incisive applications throughout. Because complex analysis is a visual subject, the book has a large number of figures. One unifying theme is partial differential equations. The Cauchy-Riemann equations and the Laplacian have central roles in our exposition. Other differential equations?such as Eulerfs equation?also make an appearance.

Summary

Mathematics is and can be creative. The author describes writing proofs as a creative process. He writes at length about the gintuitiveh level of knowing a definition. The importance of definitions is reiterated multiple times in the book. The authorfs urges students to work to define their mathematical voice. Proofs can be personalized. Both style tips and strict gmathematical dofs and donftsh are pulled out and presented in gtext-boxesh throughout the text. Common mistakes are discussed and reasoned throughout. The text emphasizes the creativity, intuition, and correct mathematical exposition as it prepares students for courses beyond the calculus sequence.

Robust Statistical Methods with R, Second Edition

Hardback
May 27, 2019 Forthcoming
Reference - 272 Pages - 28 B/W Illustrations
ISBN 9781138035362 - CAT# K31706

Summary

Robust statistical methods are particularly useful for obtaining good results from non-normally distributed data with outliers. This book is the second edition of a book focussed on applying robust statistical methods using R. It is a substantial update, with new chapters on multivariate models, large sample versus finite sample behavior, and measurement error models. The most significant update is that the computing component has been greatly improved with R code and examples now integrated throughout the book. The book is supplemented by a website with all code and data available.
