This volume contains a coherent point of view on various sharp pointwise inequalities for analytic functions in a disk in terms of the real part of the function on the boundary circle or in the disk itself. Inequalities of this type are frequently used in the theory of entire functions and in the analytic number theory.

In recent years, the study of the theory of Brownian motion has become a powerful tool in the solution of problems in mathematical physics. This self-contained and readable exposition by leading authors, provides a rigorous account of the subject, emphasizing the "explicit" rather than the "concise" where necessary, and addressed to readers interested in probability theory as applied to analysis and mathematical physics. A distinctive feature of the methods used is the ubiquitous appearance of s...

This conference allowed specialists in several complex variables to meet with specialists in potential theory to demonstrate the interface and interconnections between their two fields. The following topics were discussed: 1. Real and complex potential theory - capacity and approximation, basic properties of plurisubharmonic functions and methods to manipulate their singularities and study theory growth, Green functions, Chebyshev-like quadratures, electrostatic fields and potentials, and the pr...

This volume summarizes and synthesizes an aspect of research work that has been done in the area of Generalized Convexity over the past few decades. Specifically, the book focuses on V-invex functions in vector optimization that have grown out of the work of Jeyakumar and Mond in the 1990's. The authors integrate related research into the book and demonstrate the wide context from which the area has grown and continues to grow.

The analysis of PDEs is a prominent discipline in mathematics research, both in terms of its theoretical aspects and its relevance in applications. In recent years, the geometric properties of linear and nonlinear second order PDEs of elliptic and parabolic type have been extensively studied by many outstanding researchers. This book collects contributions from a selected group of leading experts who took part in the INdAM meeting "Geometric methods in PDEs", on the occasion of the 70th birthday...

This book introduces the concepts of tensor algebras and differentiable manifolds. It describes analytical and geometrical structures built on these basic concepts. Those structures - which include differential forms and their integration, flows, Lie derivatives, distributions and their integrability conditions, connections, and pseudo-Riemannian and symplectic manifolds - are then applied to the description of the fundamental ideas and Hamiltonian and Lagrangian mechanics, and special and gener...

If is a space of scalar-valued sequences, then a series j xj in a topological vector space X is -multiplier convergent if the series j=1 tjxj converges in X for every {tj} . This monograph studies properties of such series and gives applications to topics in locally convex spaces and vector-valued measures. A number of versions of the Orlicz-Pettis theorem are derived for multiplier convergent series with respect to various locally convex topologies. Variants of the classical Hahn-Schur...

This manual contains completely worked-out solutions for all the odd-numbered exercises in the text.

The purpose of these notes is to explore some simple relations between Markovian path and loop measures, the Poissonian ensembles of loops they determine, their occupation fields, uniform spanning trees, determinants, and Gaussian Markov fields such as the fre field. These relations are first studied in complete generality for the finite discrete setting, then partly generalized to specific examples in infinite and continuous spaces.

This book focuses on extremal problems. For instance, it seeks a domain which minimizes or maximizes a given eigenvalue of the Laplace operator with various boundary conditions and various geometric constraints. Also considered is the case of functions of eigenvalues. The text probes similar questions for other elliptic operators, such as Schrodinger, and explores optimal composites and optimal insulation problems in terms of eigenvalues.

This volume collects applications of nonstandard methods to the theory of vector lattices. Primary attention is paid to combining infinitesimal and Boolean-valued constructions of use in the classical problems of representing abstract analytical objects, such as Banach-Kantorovich spaces, vector measures, and dominated and integral operators. The book is a complement to Volume 358 of "MIA Vector Lattices and Integral Operators", printed in 1996.

This contemporary first course focuses on concepts and ideas of Measure Theory, highlighting the theoretical side of the subject. Its primary intention is to introduce Measure Theory to a new generation of students, whether in mathematics or in one of the sciences, by offering them on the one hand a text with complete, rigorous and detailed proofs--sketchy proofs have been a perpetual complaint, as demonstrated in the many Amazon reader reviews critical of authors who "omit 'trivial' steps" and...

This book introduces the principles of gravitational, magnetic, electrostatic, direct current electrical and electromagnetic fields, with detailed solutions of Laplace and electromagnetic wave equations by the method of separation of variables. Discussion includes behaviours of the scalar and vector potential and the nature of the solutions of these boundary value problems, along with the use of complex variables and conformal transformation, Green's theorem, Green's formula and Green's function...

This textbook is an introduction to the differential and integral calculas of functions of functions of several variables for students wanting more than a superficial account of the subject. The treatment is rigorous, but the authors go to some pains to give readable proofs to the classical theorems of vector calculus, including the inverse function theorem, the implicit function theorem, and the integration theorems of Green, Stokes, and Gauss.
