This book is a general introduction to the theory of schemes, followed by applications to arithmetic surfaces and to the theory of reduction of algebraic curves. The first part introduces basic objects such as schemes, morphisms, base change, local properties (normality, regularity, Zariski''s Main Theorem). This is followed by the more global aspect: coherent sheaves and a finiteness theorem for their cohomology groups. Then follows a chapter on sheaves of differentials, dualizing sheaves, and Grothendieck''s duality theory. The first part ends with the theorem of Riemann-Roch and its application to the study of smooth projective curves over a field. Singular curves are treated through a detailed study of the Picard group.The second part starts with blowing-ups and desingularisation (embedded or not) of fibered surfaces over a Dedekind ring that leads on to intersection theory on arithmetic surfaces. Castelnuovo''s criterion is proved and also the existence of the minimal regular model. This leads to the study of reduction of algebraic curves. The case of elliptic curves is studied in detail. The book concludes with the funadmental theorem of stable reduction of Deligne-Mumford.The book is essentially self-contained, including the necessary material on commutative algebra. The prerequisites are therefore few, and the book should suit a graduate student. It contains many examples and nearly 600 exercises.

Surface Evolution Equations
A Level Set Approach
Inbunden, Engelska, 2026
1 721 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
This monograph presents a self-contained introduction to the analytic foundation of a level set approach for various surface evolution equations, including curvature flow equations. These equations are important in many applications, such as material sciences, image processing, and differential geometry. The goal is to introduce a generalized notion of solutions allowing singularities and to solve the initial-value problem globally-in-time in a generalized sense. For the Second Edition, new chapters have been added that describe a recent approach to surface evolution equations based on deterministic discrete two-person games. This game-theoretic interpretation is used to discuss the fattening phenomenon for the curvature flow equation and to provide an alternative proof for convexity preserving properties.This text is suitable for applied researchers who would like to know the detail of the theory, as well as its flavor; it is also suitable for graduate students interested in the field. Prerequisites include calculus, linear algebra, and some familiarity with semicontinuous functions. Familiarity with differential geometry and the theory of viscosity solutions is not required.

eScience allows scientific research to be carried out in highly distributed environments. The complex nature of the interactions in an eScience infrastructure, which often involves a range of instruments, data, models, application, people and computational facilities, suggests there is a need for data provenance and data management (DPDM). The W3C Provenance Working Group defines the provenance of a resource as a “record that describes entities and processes involved in producing and delivering or otherwise influencing that resource”. It has been widely recognised that provenance is a critical issue to enable sharing, trust, authentication and reproducibility of eScience process.Data Provenance and Data Management in eScience identifies the gaps between DPDM foundations and their practice within eScience domains including clinical trials, bioinformatics and radio astronomy. The book covers important aspects of fundamental research in DPDM including provenance representation and querying. It also explores topics that go beyond the fundamentals including applications. This book is a unique reference for DPDM with broad appeal to anyone interested in the practical issues of DPDM in eScience domains.

Manchuriet under tidigt 1900-tal. En region som slits mellan olika stormakter. Kineser, japaner och ryssar - alla vill de ha en del av kakan. Och i en liten by bortom ära och redlighet föds en pojke som är son till en tupp besatt av en ondskefull ande. Hans öde är att bli shaman, men det är en levnadslott han ska fly ifrån under hela sitt liv. Och medan vi följer honom genom krig och revolutioner får vi möta spöken, shamaner, vandrande lik, talande djur och träd, kommunistiska spioner, kvinnotokiga generaler, kringresande cirkussällskap, rövare, koreanska gerillakrigare, japanska soldater, udda religiösa sekter och mycket, mycket mer. Mandous sång är en episk, prisvinnande roman om ett sätt att leva och en shamanistisk tradition som gått förlorad i historiens svallvågor.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of current achievements in biomedical applications of nanotechnology, including stem cell based regenerative medicine, medical imaging, cell targeting, drug delivery, and photothermal/photodynamic cancer therapy. New approaches in early cancer diagnosis and treatment are introduced with extensive experimental results. In particular, some novel materials have been synthesized with new properties that are most effective in cancer therapy. Some of the key issues are also addressed with these recent discoveries such as bio safety and bio degradability, that are essential in the success of nano medicine.An important aspect of this book is the introduction of nanotechnology to the medical communities that are searching for new treatments of cancer, therefore breaking barriers between the physical and medical sciences so that more MDs will be able to appreciate the new discoveries and establishments in medical diagnoses and therapies capable of tackling major clinical issues.
