Groups, Radical Rings, and the Yang-Baxter Equation
A Combinatorial Approach to Solutions

Book
Nov 2025

Overview

Winner of the 2025 Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Prize
Provides the first systematic and unified treatment of set-theoretic solutions to the Yang-Baxter equation
Bridges foundational theory and current research in the area
Part of the book series: Progress in Mathematics (PM, volume 361)

About this book

This monograph provides the first comprehensive introduction to set-theoretic solutions of the Yang–Baxter equation and their deep connections with skew braces. In recent decades, set-theoretic solutions have emerged as an accessible yet rich domain of study, offering new algebraic structures and revealing unexpected connections between seemingly distant fields. A key breakthrough in this direction was the discovery of braces by Rump and the later generalization to skew braces, which provide an elegant algebraic framework for understanding and constructing set-theoretic solutions. This book offers a self-contained, structured, and pedagogically motivated treatment of the subject. Each chapter ends with a list of exercises to work on the presented topics, some open problems, and comments on the authorship and development of the results presented.

The primary audience consists of researchers and advanced graduate students working on or entering topics related to the Yang–Baxter equation, especially those with interests in algebra, set-theoretic solutions, and skew braces theory. Given its self-contained nature, the book is also suitable for graduate students seeking a pathway into current research, as it provides foundational material alongside recent developments.

Conservative and Dissipative Models of Celestial Mechanics

Book
Nov 2025

Overview

Provides an explicit presentation of several different models in Celestial Mechanics
Offers a comprehensive overview of various problems in Celestial Mechanics and Astrodynamics
Presents models in the conservative setting and also in the dissipative framework
Part of the book series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics (SMM)

About this book

This book is devoted to the presentation and discussion of some models of relevance in Celestial Mechanics and Astrodynamics. The motions of celestial bodies, either natural or artificial, are governed by conservative forces, like the gravitational attraction that preserve the total energy and by dissipative forces, like the tidal torque, Stokes drag, and the Poynting-Robertson effect. The basic idea of this book is to describe in each chapter a model in the conservative setting, providing its main features, and then to extend the model by including dissipative forces. In fact, the dynamics of many objects of the Solar system is well described, in a first approximation, by a conservative model; however, in the long term, dissipative effects may play a relevant role, for example, in shaping the dynamics and affecting the evolutionary history of the Solar system.

Motivated by this observation, in this book, different models are presented and their main features are described in the conservative setting, but dissipative contributions, pertinent to the model, are added as well, which may lead to a completely different dynamics on long time scales. Conservative systems have a larger variety of motions, e.g., the dynamics can take place on rotational tori, librational motions, periodic orbits, and chaotic trajectories. On the contrary, dissipative systems admit a less rich dynamics, since the dissipation forces the motion to take place on a few attractors, e.g., rotational tori, periodic orbits or strange attractors. Besides, dissipative systems often need extra parameters to compensate for the loss of energy and to allow the dynamics to take place on non-trivial attractors.

The book is addressed to graduate students and researchers interested in models of Celestial Mechanics and Astrodynamics.

Stochastic Partial Differential Equations, Space-time White Noise and Random Fields

Book
Open Access
Oct 2025
You have full access to this open access Book

Overview

This book is open access, which means that you have free and unlimited access
Self-contained introduction to SPDEs with space-time white noise, using the random field approach
Covers the basic topics of the theory of SPDEs and gives an introduction to some fundamental topics in the field
Provides a good background to begin research in the area
Part of the book series: Springer Monographs in Mathematics (SMM)

About this book

This open access book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). The focus is on SPDEs driven by Gaussian space-time white noise. The book covers both linear and nonlinear SPDEs, with Lipschitz and locally Lipschitz coefficients and multiplicative noise. It provides a modern presentation of the theory of stochastic integration with respect to space-time white noise and unifies many results in the literature. The book discusses fundamental topics such as existence and uniqueness of random field solutions, along with their space-time sample path regularity properties. The book also presents a selection of additional topics such as weak solutions in law to SPDEs, space-time Markov properties, asymptotic bounds on moments, comparison theorems, a study of polarity of points for SPDEs with additive noise, and a study of SPDEs with rough initial conditions that includes the parabolic and hyperbolic Anderson models and their intermittency properties. In the context of the stochastic heat equation, the book discusses additional important topics including invariant and limit measures, reversible measures and their relationship to bridge measures, irreducibility properties, and large interval asymptotics. The appendices gather results from analysis and stochastic processes that are used throughout the core of the book, including key elements from the general theory of stochastic processes, a detailed presentation of Kolmogorov’s anisotropic continuity criterion, numerous integrability properties of the fundamental solutions and Green's functions associated to the heat and wave partial differential operators, explicit calculations of some space-time convolution series and some useful Gronwall-type lemmas. The book aims to be a reference for established researchers in the field of SPDEs, as well as for those who are interested in entering the field and becoming familiar with its techniques. In particular, graduate and postgraduate students with a background in stochastic analysis will find here a comprehensive and self-contained source of information which provides essential expertise in the subject.
