Families of Conformally Covariant Differential Operators, Q-Curvature and Holography (Progress in Mathematics)

Birkhauser, 2009

The central object of the book is Q-curvature. This important and subtle scalar Riemannian curvature quantity was introduced by Tom Branson about 15 year ago in connection with variational formulas for determinants of conformally covariant differential operators. The book studies structural properties of Q-curvature from an extrinsic point of view...

Differential Equations: Theory and Applications

Springer, 2009

This new edition provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of ordinary differential equations with a focus on mechanics and dynamical systems as important applications of the theory. The text is written to be used in the traditional way (emphasis on the theory with the computer component as optional) or in a more applied way (emphasis...

Game Programming All in One

Premier Press, 2002

When combined with Visual C++, Game Programming All in One provides everything you need to get started as a game developer. Divided into increasingly advanced sections, it covers the most important elements of game development. Less experienced developers can start with the basics of C++ programming and can test their skills by developing two...

Challenges for Computational Intelligence (Studies in Computational Intelligence)

Springer, 2007

In the year 1900 at the International Congress of Mathematicians in Paris David Hilbert delivered what is now considered the most important talk ever given in the history of mathematics. In this talk Hilbert outlined his philosophy of mathematics and proposed 23 major problems worth working at in future. Some of these problems were in fact more...

Mastering Financial Mathematics in Microsoft Excel: A Practical Guide for Business Calculations (Market Editions)

Trans-Atlantic Publications, 2005

Tools enabling managers to carry out financial calculations have evolved in the last 20 years from tables through calculators to programs on PCs and personal organisers. Today, the majority of those in finance have Excel on their desks and increasingly on their laptops or pocket computers.

Theory of Linear Operations (North-Holland Mathematical Library)

North Holland, 1987

The theory of operators, created by V. Volterra, has as its object the study of functions defined on infinite-dimensional spaces. This theory has penetrated several highly important areas of mathematics in an essential way: suffice it to recall that the theory of integral equations and the calculus of variations are included as special cases within...

Origamics: Mathematical Explorations Through Paper Folding

World Scientific Publishing, 2008

The art of origami, or paper folding, is carried out using a square piece of paper to obtain attractive figures of animals, flowers or other familiar figures. It is easy to see that origami has links with geometry. Creases and edges represent lines, intersecting creases and edges make angles, while the intersections themselves represent points....

Applications of Symmetry Methods to Partial Differential Equations (Applied Mathematical Sciences)

Springer, 2009

This is an accessible book on the advanced symmetry methods for differential equations. Subjects such as conservation laws, Lie-Bäcklund symmetries, contact transformations, adjoint symmetries, Nöther's Theorem, mappings with some modification, potential symmetries, nonlocal symmetries, nonlocal mappings, and non-classical...

This Wrox Blox will guide you through the world of 3D programming and give you solid knowledge and a foundation in game programming using Microsoft's XNA Framework. You will learn the fundamentals from 3D mathematics to model animation, including all the subjects needed to start developing 3D games, such as how to position objects in 3D...

Robot Vision: Video-based Indoor Exploration with Autonomous and Mobile Robots

John Wiley & Sons, 2005

The book is intended for advanced students in physics, mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, robotics, engine engineering and for specialists in computer vision and robotics on the techniques for the development of vision-based robot projects. It focusses on autonomous and mobile service robots for indoor work, and teaches...

Numerical Mathematics and Computing

Cengage Learning, 2007

Authors Ward Cheney and David Kincaid show students of science and engineering the potential computers have for solving numerical problems and give them ample opportunities to hone their skills in programming and problem solving. The text also helps students learn about errors that inevitably accompany scientific computations and arms them...
