Algebras of Unbounded Operators
Algebraic and Topological Aspects of Murray?von Neumann Algebras

Language: English
Published/Copyright: 2025

About this book

Derivations on von Neumann algebras are well understood and are always inner, meaning that they act as commutators with a fixed element from the algebra itself. The purpose of this book is to provide a complete description of derivations on algebras of operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebra. The book is designed to serve as an introductory graduate level to various measurable operators affiliated with a von Neumann algebras and their properties. These classes of operators form their respective algebras and the problem of describing derivations on these algebras was raised by Ayupov, and later by Kadison and Liu. A principal aim of the book is to fully resolve the Ayupov-Kadison-Liu problem by proving a necessary and sufficient condition of the existence of non-inner derivation of algebras of measurable operators. It turns out that only for a finite type I von Neumann algebra M may there exist a non-inner derivation on the algebra of operators affiliated with M. In particular, it is established that the classical derivation d/dt of functions of real variables can be extended up to a derivation on the algebra of all measurable functions. This resolves a long-standing problem in classical analysis.

Regularity Theory for Generalized Navier?Stokes Equations
Non-Newtonian Fluids with Variable Power-Law

Language: English
Published/Copyright: 2025

About this book

This book delves into the recent findings and research methods in the existence and regularity theory for Non-Newtonian Fluids with Variable Power-Law. The aim of this book is not only to introduce recent results and research methods in the existence and regularity theory, such as higher integrability, higher differentiability, and Holder continuity for flows of non-Newtonian fluids with variable power-laws, but also to summarize much of the existing literature concerning these topics. While this book mainly focuses on steady-state flows of non-Newtonian fluids, the methods and ideas presented in this book can be applied to unsteady flows (as discussed in Chapter 7) and other related problems such as complex non-Newtonian fluids, plasticity, elasticity, p(x)-Laplacian type systems, and so on.

The book is intended for researchers and graduate students in the field of mathematical fluid mechanics and partial differential equations with variable exponents. It is expected to contribute to the advancement of mathematics and its applications.

A comprehensive review of mathematical theory for non-Newtonian fluids.
In-depth discussions on unifying and systematic theory about regularity.
Concerning boundary value problems, which is rather realistic for real world applications

Space-Time Algebra of Sedeons
Electrodynamics, Hydrodynamics, Field Theory, and Quantum Mechanics

Language: English
Published/Copyright: 2025

About this book

This book is a comprehensive guide to the space-time algebra of sixteen-component values "sedeons". This algebra is designed to provide a compact representation of equations that describe various physical systems. The book considers the symmetry of physical quantities concerning the operations of spatial and temporal inversion. This approach allows the formulation of a wide class of mathematical physics equations within a unified framework and enables the generalization of these equations for essential problems in electrodynamics, hydrodynamics, plasma physics, field theory, and quantum mechanics. In particular, it is shown that the broken symmetry between electricity and magnetism in electrodynamics equations is a result of choosing an asymmetric representation of these phenomena. The sedeonic algebra enables the formulation of Maxwell-like equations for the fields with a nonzero mass of quantum, which facilitates the calculation of energy for baryon-baryon interaction and the semi-classical interpretation of this interaction. It also allows one to generalize the hydrodynamics equations for the case of vortex turbulent flows and for a hydrodynamic two-fluid model of electron-ion plasma.

This book provides original space-time algebra of 16-component sedeons.
It contains novel results on electrodynamics, hydrodynamics, and plasma physics.
The topics of field theory and quantum mechanics are also included.

Dynamics of Entire Functions
The Fractal Sets of Julia and Mandelbrot

Language: English
Published/Copyright: 2025

About this book

There are very few systematic books on the dynamics of entire functions. Unfortunately, reading these books is often difficult for non-specialists since their proofs are not clearly written, and readers struggle to understand the arguments fully. This book is a comprehensive introduction to the iteration theory of entire complex functions. It is intended to introduce the reader to the key topics in the field and to form a basis for further study. In general, the proofs are more detailed; therefore, the book will also help non-specialist mathematicians become acquainted with complex dynamics. In no sense is this manuscript a complete account of the subject. Nevertheless, the book may also be helpful to young researchers in this field before they tackle more specific works. The book deals with three possible aspects: theory, practice, and computer graphics. In Appendix C, we explained the necessary rudiments of MATLAB RGB images to create computer graphics of different sets considered in the book, such as the sets of Julia and Mandelbrot. In this Appendix, a gallery is also included where beautiful and spectacular images are shown. The author has obtained all these images using MATLAB, most of which are revealed here for the first time.

The book covers theory, practice, and computer graphics (using Matlab).

It is suitable for non-specialist mathematicians and a potential postgraduate textbook.
