Polycyclic Groups
Av Daniel Segal, Bela Bollobas m. fl.
Häftad, 2005
911 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The theory of polycyclic groups is a branch of infinite group theory which has a rather different flavour from the rest of that subject. This book is a comprehensive account of the present state of this theory. As well as providing a connected and self-contained account of the group-theoretical …

An Introduction to Homotopy Theory
Av P. J. Hilton
Häftad, 1953
699 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Since the introduction of homotopy groups by Hurewicz in 1935, homotopy theory has occupied a prominent place in the development of algebraic topology.

Ends of Complexes
Av Bruce Hughes, Andrew Ranicki
Häftad, 2008
908 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The ends of a topological space are the directions in which it becomes non-compact by tending to infinity. The tame ends of manifolds are particularly interesting, both for their own sake, and for their use in the classification of high-dimensional compact manifolds. The book is devoted to the …

Häftad, 2008
944 kr

One of the major discoveries of the last two decades of the twentieth century in algebraic geometry is the realization that the theory of minimal models of surfaces can be generalized to higher dimensional varieties. This generalization, called the minimal model program or Mori's program, has …
Random Walks on Infinite Graphs and Groups
Häftad, 2008
993 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The main theme of this book is the interplay between the behaviour of a class of stochastic processes (random walks) and discrete structure theory. The author considers Markov chains whose state space is equipped with the structure of an infinite, locally finite graph, or as a particular case, of a …
Continuum Percolation
Häftad, 2008
911 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Many phenomena in physics, chemistry, and biology can be modelled by spatial random processes. One such process is continuum percolation, which is used when the phenomenon being modelled is made up of individual events that overlap, for example, the way individual raindrops eventually make the …
