Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Monte Carlo method is a numerical method of solving mathematical problems through random sampling. As a universal numerical technique, the method became possible only with the advent of computers, and its application continues to expand with each new computer generation. A Primer for the Monte Carlo Method demonstrates how practical problems in science, industry, and trade can be solved using this method. The book features the main schemes of the Monte Carlo method and presents various examples of its application, including queueing, quality and reliability estimations, neutron transport, astrophysics, and numerical analysis. The only prerequisite to using the book is an understanding of elementary calculus.
Download or read book Computability written by B. Jack Copeland and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computer scientists, mathematicians, and philosophers discuss the conceptual foundations of the notion of computability as well as recent theoretical developments. In the 1930s a series of seminal works published by Alan Turing, Kurt Gödel, Alonzo Church, and others established the theoretical basis for computability. This work, advancing precise characterizations of effective, algorithmic computability, was the culmination of intensive investigations into the foundations of mathematics. In the decades since, the theory of computability has moved to the center of discussions in philosophy, computer science, and cognitive science. In this volume, distinguished computer scientists, mathematicians, logicians, and philosophers consider the conceptual foundations of computability in light of our modern understanding. Some chapters focus on the pioneering work by Turing, Gödel, and Church, including the Church-Turing thesis and Gödel's response to Church's and Turing's proposals. Other chapters cover more recent technical developments, including computability over the reals, Gödel's influence on mathematical logic and on recursion theory and the impact of work by Turing and Emil Post on our theoretical understanding of online and interactive computing; and others relate computability and complexity to issues in the philosophy of mind, the philosophy of science, and the philosophy of mathematics.

Book Synopsis A Primer on Memory Consistency and Cache Coherence, Second Edition by : Vijay Nagarajan
Download or read book A Primer on Memory Consistency and Cache Coherence, Second Edition written by Vijay Nagarajan and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many modern computer systems, including homogeneous and heterogeneous architectures, support shared memory in hardware. In a shared memory system, each of the processor cores may read and write to a single shared address space. For a shared memory machine, the memory consistency model defines the architecturally visible behavior of its memory system. Consistency definitions provide rules about loads and stores (or memory reads and writes) and how they act upon memory. As part of supporting a memory consistency model, many machines also provide cache coherence protocols that ensure that multiple cached copies of data are kept up-to-date. The goal of this primer is to provide readers with a basic understanding of consistency and coherence. This understanding includes both the issues that must be solved as well as a variety of solutions. We present both high-level concepts as well as specific, concrete examples from real-world systems. This second edition reflects a decade of advancements since the first edition and includes, among other more modest changes, two new chapters: one on consistency and coherence for non-CPU accelerators (with a focus on GPUs) and one that points to formal work and tools on consistency and coherence.
Book Synopsis Domesticating Symbols by : Ludger Hovestadt
Download or read book Domesticating Symbols written by Ludger Hovestadt and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2014-09-23 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: domesticating symbols looks at the entropic dissolution of symbolic structures we are experiencing today and explores various approaches towards learning to create code. Photovoltaics and its capacity to capture energy by coding instead of exploitation of resources, and of integrating in additional or surplus quantities of energy into the ecosphere of the planet‘s natural balance is the central focus of this publication. Energythereby also encompasses the genuinely abstract format of electricity, which makes it possible to convert any form of energy into any other form. This is the second volume of the Applied Virtuality book series based on the Metalithicum Conferences by the Laboratory of Applied Virtuality at the Chair for Computer Aided Architectural Design, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) Zurich.
Book Synopsis Introduction to Arithmetic Groups by : Armand Borel
Download or read book Introduction to Arithmetic Groups written by Armand Borel and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after it made the transition from mimeographed lecture notes to a published book, Armand Borel's Introduction aux groupes arithmétiques continues to be very important for the theory of arithmetic groups. In particular, Chapter III of the book remains the standard reference for fundamental results on reduction theory, which is crucial in the study of discrete subgroups of Lie groups and the corresponding homogeneous spaces. The review of the original French version in Mathematical Reviews observes that “the style is concise and the proofs (in later sections) are often demanding of the reader.” To make the translation more approachable, numerous footnotes provide helpful comments.
Book Synopsis The Ultimate Challenge by : Jeffrey C. Lagarias
Download or read book The Ultimate Challenge written by Jeffrey C. Lagarias and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2023-04-19 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The $3x+1$ problem, or Collatz problem, concerns the following seemingly innocent arithmetic procedure applied to integers: If an integer $x$ is odd then “multiply by three and add one”, while if it is even then “divide by two”. The $3x+1$ problem asks whether, starting from any positive integer, repeating this procedure over and over will eventually reach the number 1. Despite its simple appearance, this problem is unsolved. Generalizations of the problem are known to be undecidable, and the problem itself is believed to be extraordinarily difficult. This book reports on what is known on this problem. It consists of a collection of papers, which can be read independently of each other. The book begins with two introductory papers, one giving an overview and current status, and the second giving history and basic results on the problem. These are followed by three survey papers on the problem, relating it to number theory and dynamical systems, to Markov chains and ergodic theory, and to logic and the theory of computation. The next paper presents results on probabilistic models for behavior of the iteration. This is followed by a paper giving the latest computational results on the problem, which verify its truth for $x < 5.4 cdot 10^{18}$. The book also reprints six early papers on the problem and related questions, by L. Collatz, J. H. Conway, H. S. M. Coxeter, C. J. Everett, and R. K. Guy, each with editorial commentary. The book concludes with an annotated bibliography of work on the problem up to the year 2000.

Book Synopsis Combinatorial Convexity by : Imre Bárány
Download or read book Combinatorial Convexity written by Imre Bárány and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-11-04 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the combinatorial properties of convex sets, families of convex sets in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces, and finite points sets related to convexity. This area is classic, with theorems of Helly, Carathéodory, and Radon that go back more than a hundred years. At the same time, it is a modern and active field of research with recent results like Tverberg's theorem, the colourful versions of Helly and Carathéodory, and the (p,q) (p,q) theorem of Alon and Kleitman. As the title indicates, the topic is convexity and geometry, and is close to discrete mathematics. The questions considered are frequently of a combinatorial nature, and the proofs use ideas from geometry and are often combined with graph and hypergraph theory. The book is intended for students (graduate and undergraduate alike), but postdocs and research mathematicians will also find it useful. It can be used as a textbook with short chapters, each suitable for a one- or two-hour lecture. Not much background is needed: basic linear algebra and elements of (hyper)graph theory as well as some mathematical maturity should suffice.
Book Synopsis Generalized Ricci Flow by : Mario Garcia-Fernandez
Download or read book Generalized Ricci Flow written by Mario Garcia-Fernandez and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The generalized Ricci flow is a geometric evolution equation which has recently emerged from investigations into mathematical physics, Hitchin's generalized geometry program, and complex geometry. This book gives an introduction to this new area, discusses recent developments, and formulates open questions and conjectures for future study. The text begins with an introduction to fundamental aspects of generalized Riemannian, complex, and Kähler geometry. This leads to an extension of the classical Einstein-Hilbert action, which yields natural extensions of Einstein and Calabi-Yau structures as ‘canonical metrics’ in generalized Riemannian and complex geometry. The book then introduces generalized Ricci flow as a tool for constructing such metrics and proves extensions of the fundamental Hamilton/Perelman regularity theory of Ricci flow. These results are refined in the setting of generalized complex geometry, where the generalized Ricci flow is shown to preserve various integrability conditions, taking the form of pluriclosed flow and generalized Kähler-Ricci flow, leading to global convergence results and applications to complex geometry. Finally, the book gives a purely mathematical introduction to the physical idea of T-duality and discusses its relationship to generalized Ricci flow. The book is suitable for graduate students and researchers with a background in Riemannian and complex geometry who are interested in the theory of geometric evolution equations.
Book Synopsis Function Theory and ℓp Spaces by : Raymond Cheng
Download or read book Function Theory and ℓp Spaces written by Raymond Cheng and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2020-05-28 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The classical ℓp sequence spaces have been a mainstay in Banach spaces. This book reviews some of the foundational results in this area (the basic inequalities, duality, convexity, geometry) as well as connects them to the function theory (boundary growth conditions, zero sets, extremal functions, multipliers, operator theory) of the associated spaces ℓpA of analytic functions whose Taylor coefficients belong to ℓp. Relations between the Banach space ℓp and its associated function space are uncovered using tools from Banach space geometry, including Birkhoff-James orthogonality and the resulting Pythagorean inequalities. The authors survey the literature on all of this material, including a discussion of the multipliers of ℓpA and a discussion of the Wiener algebra ℓ1A. Except for some basic measure theory, functional analysis, and complex analysis, which the reader is expected to know, the material in this book is self-contained and detailed proofs of nearly all the results are given. Each chapter concludes with some end notes that give proper references, historical background, and avenues for further exploration.
Book Synopsis Extensions of the Axiom of Determinacy by : Paul B. Larson
Download or read book Extensions of the Axiom of Determinacy written by Paul B. Larson and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2023-10-19 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an expository account of work on strong forms of the Axiom of Determinacy (AD) by a group of set theorists in Southern California, in particular by W. Hugh Woodin. The first half of the book reviews necessary background material, including the Moschovakis Coding Lemma, the existence of strong partition cardinals, and the analysis of pointclasses in models of determinacy. The second half of the book introduces Woodin's axiom system $mathrm{AD}^{+}$ and presents his initial analysis of these axioms. These results include the consistency of $mathrm{AD}^{+}$ from the consistency of AD, and its local character and initial motivation. Proofs are given of fundamental results by Woodin, Martin, and Becker on the relationships among AD, $mathrm{AD}^{+}$, the Axiom of Real Determinacy, and the Suslin property. Many of these results are proved in print here for the first time. The book briefly discusses later work and fundamental questions which remain open. The study of models of $mathrm{AD}^{+}$ is an active area of contemporary research in set theory. The presentation is aimed at readers with a background in basic set theory, including forcing and ultrapowers. Some familiarity with classical results on regularity properties for sets of reals under AD is also expected.
Book Synopsis Quantum Field Theory: Batalin–Vilkovisky Formalism and Its Applications by : Pavel Mnev
Download or read book Quantum Field Theory: Batalin–Vilkovisky Formalism and Its Applications written by Pavel Mnev and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book originated from lecture notes for the course given by the author at the University of Notre Dame in the fall of 2016. The aim of the book is to give an introduction to the perturbative path integral for gauge theories (in particular, topological field theories) in Batalin–Vilkovisky formalism and to some of its applications. The book is oriented toward a graduate mathematical audience and does not require any prior physics background. To elucidate the picture, the exposition is mostly focused on finite-dimensional models for gauge systems and path integrals, while giving comments on what has to be amended in the infinite-dimensional case relevant to local field theory. Motivating examples discussed in the book include Alexandrov–Kontsevich–Schwarz–Zaboronsky sigma models, the perturbative expansion for Chern–Simons invariants of 3-manifolds given in terms of integrals over configurations of points on the manifold, the BF theory on cellular decompositions of manifolds, and Kontsevich's deformation quantization formula.
Book Synopsis The Invariant Theory of Matrices by : Corrado De Concini
Download or read book The Invariant Theory of Matrices written by Corrado De Concini and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a unified, complete, and self-contained exposition of the main algebraic theorems of invariant theory for matrices in a characteristic free approach. More precisely, it contains the description of polynomial functions in several variables on the set of matrices with coefficients in an infinite field or even the ring of integers, invariant under simultaneous conjugation. Following Hermann Weyl's classical approach, the ring of invariants is described by formulating and proving (1) the first fundamental theorem that describes a set of generators in the ring of invariants, and (2) the second fundamental theorem that describes relations between these generators. The authors study both the case of matrices over a field of characteristic 0 and the case of matrices over a field of positive characteristic. While the case of characteristic 0 can be treated following a classical approach, the case of positive characteristic (developed by Donkin and Zubkov) is much harder. A presentation of this case requires the development of a collection of tools. These tools and their application to the study of invariants are exlained in an elementary, self-contained way in the book.

Book Synopsis Real Solutions to Equations from Geometry by : Frank Sottile
Download or read book Real Solutions to Equations from Geometry written by Frank Sottile and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding, finding, or even deciding on the existence of real solutions to a system of equations is a difficult problem with many applications outside of mathematics. While it is hopeless to expect much in general, we know a surprising amount about these questions for systems which possess additional structure often coming from geometry. This book focuses on equations from toric varieties and Grassmannians. Not only is much known about these, but such equations are common in applications. There are three main themes: upper bounds on the number of real solutions, lower bounds on the number of real solutions, and geometric problems that can have all solutions be real. The book begins with an overview, giving background on real solutions to univariate polynomials and the geometry of sparse polynomial systems. The first half of the book concludes with fewnomial upper bounds and with lower bounds to sparse polynomial systems. The second half of the book begins by sampling some geometric problems for which all solutions can be real, before devoting the last five chapters to the Shapiro Conjecture, in which the relevant polynomial systems have only real solutions.
