Reinhold Remmert – författare

A lively and vivid look at the material from function theory, including the residue calculus, supported by examples and practice exercises throughout. There is also ample discussion of the historical evolution of the theory, biographical sketches of important contributors, and citations - in the original language with their English translation - from their classical works. Yet the book is far from being a mere history of function theory, and even experts will find a few new or long forgotten gems here. Destined to accompany students making their way into this classical area of mathematics, the book offers quick access to the essential results for exam preparation. Teachers and interested mathematicians in finance, industry and science will profit from reading this again and again, and will refer back to it with pleasure.

This is a book about numbers - all kinds of numbers, from integers to p-adics, from rationals to octonions, from reals to infinitesimals. Who first used the standard notation for A? Why was Hamilton obsessed with quaternions? What was the prospect for "quaternionic analysis" in the 19th century? This is the story about one of the major threads of mathematics over thousands of years. It is a story that will give the reader both a glimpse of the mystery surrounding imaginary numbers in the 17th century and also a view of some major developments in the 20th.

An ideal text for an advanced course in the theory of complex functions, this book leads readers to experience function theory personally and to participate in the work of the creative mathematician. The author includes numerous glimpses of the function theory of several complex variables, which illustrate how autonomous this discipline has become. In addition to standard topics, readers will find Eisenstein's proof of Euler's product formula for the sine function; Wielandts uniqueness theorem for the gamma function; Stirlings formula; Isssas theorem; Besses proof that all domains in C are domains of holomorphy; Wedderburns lemma and the ideal theory of rings of holomorphic functions; Estermanns proofs of the overconvergence theorem and Blochs theorem; a holomorphic imbedding of the unit disc in C3; and Gausss expert opinion on Riemanns dissertation. Remmert elegantly presents the material in short clear sections, with compact proofs and historical comments interwoven throughout the text. The abundance of examples, exercises, and historical remarks, as well as the extensive bibliography, combine to make an invaluable source for students and teachers alike

From the reviews:"Theory of Stein Spaces provides a rich variety of methods, results, and motivations - a book with masterful mathematical care and judgement. It is a pleasure to have this fundamental material now readily accessible to any serious mathematician."J. Eells in Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society (1980)"Written by two mathematicians who played a crucial role in the development of the modern theory of several complex variables, this is an important book."J.B. Cooper in Internationale Mathematische Nachrichten (1979)

Ein weiteres Kapitel über geometrische Funktionentheorie und schlichte Funktionen enthält einen Beweis der Bieberbachschen Vermutung."Der ... vorliegende zweite Band der Funktionentheorie erfüllt voll die Erwartungen, die der erste Band geweckt hat.

Diese fünfte Auflage wurde zusammen mit dem zweitgenannten Autor kritisch durchgesehen, ergänzt und verbessert. Die Besprechung zur ersten Auflage ist nach wie vor aktuell.Aus den Besprechungen zur ersten Auflage: "Aufgelockert durch viele Beispiele und Übungsaufgaben, wird die Theorie der Funktionen einer komplexen Veränderlichen bis zum Residuenkalkül entwickelt. Im Zentrum stehen die Integralsätze von Cauchy.... Jeder Paragraph schließt mit historischen Hinweisen, die auch die persönlichen Beziehungen der Beteiligten nicht ausklammern. So erfährt man natürlich die unterschiedlichen Standpunkte von Cauchy und Weierstrass. Neben den Themen, die in keinem Text zur Funktionentheorie fehlen dürfen, findet man auch "Raritäten", etwa: Eisensteins Zugang zu den trigonometrischen Funktionen mittels Reihen oder Ritts Satz über asymptotische Reihenentwicklung, welcher einen berühmten Satz von E. Borel enthält."Elemente der Mathematik

Die Schwierigkeit Mathematik zu lernen und zu lehren ist jedem bekannt, der einmal mit diesem Fach in Berührung gekommen ist. Begriffe wie "reelle oder komplexe Zahlen, Pi" sind zwar jedem geläufig, aber nur wenige wissen, was sich wirklich dahinter verbirgt. Die Autoren dieses Bandes geben jedem, der mehr wissen will als nur die Hülle der Begriffe, eine meisterhafte Einführung in die Magie der Mathematik und schlagen einzigartige Brücken für Studenten.Die Rezensenten der ersten beiden Auflagen überschlugen sich.

In unserer technisierten Welt stoßen wir überall auf Mathematik. Mathematik ist eine Basiswissenschaft und der Schlüssel für bahnbrechende Innovationen. Sie macht viele Produkte und Dienstleistungen überhaupt erst möglich und ist damit ein wichtiger Produktions- und Wettbewerbsfaktor.Im vorliegenden Buch berichten 19 große internationale Unternehmen sowie die Bundesagentur für Arbeit wie unverzichtbar Mathematik für ihren Erfolg heute geworden ist. Ein spannender und lehrreicher Einblick in die Mathematik, der mit oft zitierten und negativen Vorurteilen gründlich aufräumt.

Mathematics has a certain mystique, for it is pure and ex- act, yet demands remarkable creativity. This reputation is reinforced by its characteristic abstraction and its own in- dividual language, which often disguise its origins in and connections with the physical world. Publishing mathematics, therefore, requires special effort and talent. Heinz G|tze,who has dedicated his life to scientific pu- blishing, took up this challenge with his typical enthusi- asm. This Festschrift celebrates his invaluable contribu- tions to the mathematical community, many of whose leading members he counts among his personal friends. The articles, written by mathematicians from around the world and coming from diverse fields, portray the important role of mathematics in our culture. Here, the reflections of important mathematicians, often focused on the history of mathematics, are collected, in recognition of Heinz G|tze's life-longsupport of mathematics.

A volume containing original essays from quite diverse fields in mathematics is something of a rarity, especially if renowned scientists show the width of their discipline to the reader. This book is just such a rarity - a veritable gem. It was written to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the mathematical research institute at Oberwolfach. The articles span a range of topics from general reflections on the place of mathematics in contemporary culture to essays dealing with aspects of algebra, analysis, geometry, coding theory, scientific computing and topology. All essays are interrelated, proving the old rule that you can divide and still conquer. A book in which every mathematician or scientist interested in mathematics will find something to take their fancy.

From the Preface: “There are three volumes. The first one contains a curriculum vitae, a «Brève Analyse des Travaux» and a Iist of publications, including books and seminars. In addition the volume contains all papers of H. Cartan on analytic functions published before 1939. The other papers on analytic functions, e.g. those on Stein manifolds and coherent sheaves, make up the second volume. The third volume contains, with a few exceptions, all further papers of H. Cartan; among them is a reproduction of exposés 2 to 11 of his 1954/55 Seminar on Eilenberg-MacLane algebras. Each volume is arranged in chronological order. The reader should be aware that these volumes do not fully reflect H. Cartan's work, a large part of which is also contained in his fifteen ENS-Seminars (1948-1964) and in his book "Homological Algebra" with S. Eilenberg... Still, we trust that mathematicians throughout the world will welcome the availability of the "Oeuvres" of a mathematician whose writing and teaching has had such an influence on our generation.”
