 |  |  Knots and LinksKnot theory is the study of embeddings of circles in space. It is a subject in which naturally occurring questions are often so simple to state that they can be explained to a child, yet finding answers may require ideas from the forefront of research. It is a subject of both depth and subtlety.
The subject started to develop... |  |  Concurrent and Real-Time Programming in AdaAda is the only ISO-standard, object-oriented, concurrent, real-time programming language. It is intended for use in large, long-lived applications where reliability and efficiency are essential, particularly real-time and embedded systems. In this book, Alan Burns and Andy Wellings give a thorough, self-contained account of how the Ada tasking... |

 The Philosophy of Gottlob FregeBegriffsschrift was, as the subtitle announced, a formula language of pure thought modeled upon the language of arithmetic. Frege borrowed the notation for functions from arithmetic, and enlarged the realm of applicability of a function beyond the domain of numbers. Then, supplanting the subject/predicate division, which was... |  |  Quantum Cosmology and Baby UniversesQuantum gravity is notoriously a subject where problems vastly outnumber results. This is no surprise at short distances, on the order of the Planck length, where most of us expect quantum fluctuations in the metric to cause space-time itself to lose its meaning and gravity to be subsumed (along with the other so-called fundamental interactions)... |  |  Introductory Quantum OpticsQuantum optics is one of the liveliest fields in physics at present. While it has been a dominant research field for at least two decades, with much graduate activity, in the past few years it has started to impact the undergraduate curriculum. This book developed from courses we have taught to final year undergraduates and beginning graduate... |
