"The book is mainly addressed to the non-expert reader, in that it assumes only a little background in complex analysis and algebraic geometry, but no previous knowledge in transcendental number theory is required. The technical language is introduced smoothly, and illustrative examples are provided where appropriate … The book is carefully written, and the relevant literature is provided in the list of references. "Mathematical Reviews ClippingsThis book gives an introduction to some central results in transcendental number theory with application to periods and special values of modular and hypergeometric functions. It also includes related results on Calabi-Yau manifolds. Most of the material is based on the author's own research and appears for the first time in book form. It is presented with minimal of technical language and no background in number theory is needed. In addition, except the last chapter, all chapters include exercises suitable for graduate students. It is a nice book for graduate students and researchers interested in transcendence.

This book provides an in-depth and rigorous study of the Wigner transform and its variants. They are presented first within a context of a general mathematical framework, and then through applications to quantum mechanics. The Wigner transform was introduced by Eugene Wigner in 1932 as a probability quasi-distribution which allows expression of quantum mechanical expectation values in the same form as the averages of classical statistical mechanics. It is also used in signal processing as a transform in time-frequency analysis, closely related to the windowed Gabor transform.Written for advanced-level students and professors in mathematics and mathematical physics, it is designed as a complete textbook course providing analysis on the most important research on the subject to date. Due to the advanced nature of the content, it is also suitable for research mathematicians, engineers and chemists active in the field.

"I very much enjoyed reading this book … Each chapter comes with well thought-out exercises, solutions to which are given at the end of the chapter. Conformal Maps and Geometry presents key topics in geometric function theory and the theory of univalent functions, and also prepares the reader to progress to study the SLE. It succeeds admirably on both counts."MathSciNetGeometric function theory is one of the most interesting parts of complex analysis, an area that has become increasingly relevant as a key feature in the theory of Schramm-Loewner evolution.Though Riemann mapping theorem is frequently explored, there are few texts that discuss general theory of univalent maps, conformal invariants, and Loewner evolution. This textbook provides an accessible foundation of the theory of conformal maps and their connections with geometry.It offers a unique view of the field, as it is one of the first to discuss general theory of univalent maps at a graduate level, while introducing more complex theories of conformal invariants and extremal lengths. Conformal Maps and Geometry is an ideal resource for graduate courses in Complex Analysis or as an analytic prerequisite to study the theory of Schramm-Loewner evolution.

The quest for the optimal is ubiquitous in nature and human behavior. The field of mathematical optimization has a long history and remains active today, particularly in the development of machine learning.Classical and Modern Optimization presents a self-contained overview of classical and modern ideas and methods in approaching optimization problems. The approach is rich and flexible enough to address smooth and non-smooth, convex and non-convex, finite or infinite-dimensional, static or dynamic situations. The first chapters of the book are devoted to the classical toolbox: topology and functional analysis, differential calculus, convex analysis and necessary conditions for differentiable constrained optimization. The remaining chapters are dedicated to more specialized topics and applications.Valuable to a wide audience, including students in mathematics, engineers, data scientists or economists, Classical and Modern Optimization contains more than 200 exercises to assist with self-study or for anyone teaching a third- or fourth-year optimization class.

This book sets out to demonstrate, interpret, and analyse the geometrical structures underlying classical mechanics. Through exploring the applications of these structures in the context of dissipative, autonomous, and nonautonomous conservative dynamical systems, a series of insightful exercises are developed in order to both consolidate and clarify the theoretical concepts introduced.Geometry of Mechanics provides an informative exploration of the classic geometrical structures, including the symplectic structure and its application for constructing Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalisms of autonomous regular systems, the cosymplectic structure (and others) for nonautonomous (time-dependent) systems, and the Riemannian structure underlying systems of "mechanical" type. Lesser-known frameworks are also investigated, such as the (Skinner-Rusk) unified Lagrangian-Hamiltonian formalism, a new geometric setting for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, and the latest treatment of nonconservative systems by contact geometry. Although the main focus of this exposition is on the regular Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems, singular systems are also briefly explained where applicable.Each chapter concludes with a set of problems, some of which are intended to be solved solely by the application of results presented, while others contain instructive results complementary to those presented in the chapters, complete with comments, suggestions, and recommendations. Interested readers will also find an extensive and up-to-date bibliography, including a great number of works produced in recent decades related to all topics explored.

A Course in Homogenization-Based Techniques focuses on providing practical insights into select mathematical techniques for multiscale problems, with a close eye on real-world applications. Supported by examples and exercises chosen for their ability to serve as tools illustrating underlying theories — much like appetizers designed to spark further curiosity — this textbook explores the "why" just as much as it explains the "how" of multiscale modeling. It encourages readers to pose their own questions and guides them in approaching this widely applicable and deeply valuable field. Asymptotic analysis — in particular homogenization-based techniques — can offer powerful approximate models and concrete expressions for constitutive laws that bridge the gap between microscopic and macroscopic scales for endless real-world scenarios. Understanding how to couple these scales correctly allows one to unlock entirely new interpretations of otherwise inaccessible microscopic data by linking it to macroscopic experimental observations.Learning to use multiscale modeling in this way opens up a world of possibilities and introduces new dimensions of research to even experienced scientists. For this reason, this textbook seeks not only to train master's and PhD students of applied mathematics in techniques that can be both relevant for their education and of practical importance to their careers, but also to engage with the broader scientific community by enhancing the general mathematical literacy of scientists in the natural sciences and engineering.
