Reviews

"Altogether, this book represents a very gentle, user-friendly and skillful introduction to undergraduate abstract algebra for students in various fields of science. [...] a very experienced teacher has here presented a valuable introductory text on abstract algebra that can universally be used as a source for a one or two semester course on the subject for students in their second or third year of study: Without any doubt, this text is also very suitable for private study and exam preparation of undergraduates."

Optimization and Control for Partial Differential Equations
Uncertainty quantification, open and closed-loop control, and shape optimization

Volume 29 in the series Radon Series on Computational and Applied Mathematics

About this book

This book highlights new developments in the wide and growing field of partial differential equations (PDE)-constrained optimization. Optimization problems where the dynamics evolve according to a system of PDEs arise in science, engineering, and economic applications and they can take the form of inverse problems, optimal control problems or optimal design problems. This book covers new theoretical, computational as well as implementation aspects for PDE-constrained optimization problems under uncertainty, in shape optimization, and in feedback control, and it illustrates the new developments on representative problems from a variety of applications.

Jurgen Berndt and Young Jin Suh

Real Hypersurfaces in Hermitian Symmetric Spaces

Volume 5 in the series Advances in Analysis and Geometry

About this book

Hermitian symmetric spaces are an important class of manifolds that can be studied with methods from Kahler geometry and Lie theory. This work gives an introduction to Hermitian symmetric spaces and their submanifolds, and presents classification results for real hypersurfaces in these spaces, focusing on results obtained by Jurgen Berndt and Young Jin Suh in the last 20 years.

Combines the topic of Hermitian symmetric spaces with submanifolds - a classical topic in differential geometry.
Focuses on results.
Includes projective spaces, complex Grassmannians and complex quadrics.

Gabriel Goldberg

The Ultrapower Axiom

Volume 10 in the series De Gruyter Series in Logic and Its Applications

About this book

The book is about strong axioms of infinity (also known as large cardinal axioms) in set theory, and the ongoing search for natural models of these axioms. Assuming the Ultrapower Axiom, we solve various classical problems in set theory (e.g., the Generalized Continuum Hypothesis) and develop a theory of large cardinals that is much clearer than the theory that can be developed using only the standard axioms.

This book is developed and expanded from a prize winning thesis in logic.
Editors of GSLA expressed a strong interest in the work.

Graded Algebras in Algebraic Geometry

Volume 70 in the series De Gruyter Expositions in Mathematics

About this book

The objective of this book is to look at certain commutative graded algebras that appear frequently in algebraic geometry. By studying classical constructions from geometry from the point of view of modern commutative algebra, this carefully-written book is a valuable source of information, offering a careful algebraic systematization and treatment of the problems at hand, and contributing to the study of the original geometric questions.

A didactic monograph at the interface of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry
Studies classical constructions from geometry from the viewpoint of modern commutative algebra

Shai Dekel

Pointwise Variable Anisotropic Function Spaces on RN

Volume 85 in the series De Gruyter Studies in Mathematics

About this book

Spaces of homogeneous type were introduced as a generalization to the Euclidean space and serve as a sufficient setting in which one can generalize the classical isotropic Harmonic analysis and function space theory. This setting is sometimes too general, and the theory is limited. Here, we present a set of flexible ellipsoid covers of Rn that replace the Euclidean balls and support a generalization of the theory with fewer limitations.

Covers the theory of local approximation using multivariate algebraic polynomials, and anisotropic spaces and representations of functions based on anisotropic multilevel ellipsoid. Discusses the history of anisotropic functions and applications.
