G.Boniolo,P. Budinich,M.Trobok, The Role of Mathematics in Physical Sciences: Interdisciplinary and Philosophical Aspects
Springer | ISBN 1402031076 | 2005 | PDF | 1.95 MB | 245 pages

Even though mathematics and physics have been related for centuries and this relation appears to be unproblematic, there are many questions still open: Is mathematics really necessary for physics, or could physics exist without mathematics?Should we think physically and then add the mathematics apt to formalise our physical intuition, or should we think mathematically and then interpret physically the obtained results? Do we get mathematical objects by abstraction from real objects, or vice versa?

Chern-Simons Theory, Matrix Models, and Topological Strings

Chern-Simons Theory, Matrix Models, and Topological Strings (International Series of Monographs on Physics)
Oxford University Press, USA | November 24, 2005 | ISBN-10: 0198568495 | 216 pages | PDF | 1 mb

In recent years, the old idea that gauge theories and string theories are equivalent has been implemented and developed in various ways, and there are by now various models where the string theory / gauge theory correspondence is at work. One of the most important examples of this correspondence relates Chern-Simons theory, a topological gauge theory in three dimensions which describes knot and three-manifold invariants, to topological string theory, which is deeply related to Gromov-Witten invariants. This has led to some surprising relations between three-manifold geometry and enumerative geometry.

Elements of KK Theory (Mathematics Theory and Applications)
Birkhäuser Boston | March 1, 1990 | ISBN-10: 0817634967 | 202 pages | DJvu | 2.41 mb

This monograph gives an excellent introduction to a very abtruse and difficult subject. Readers familiar with the K-theory of operators due to Brown-Douglas-Fillmore and the Kadison-Ringrose theory of operator algebras should have ample background to read this book. These background works are very advanced mathematical subjects and so this book should be viewed as one written for specialists only.

They are of great economic importance, support both commercial fisheries and mariculture efforts and occupy a unique niche in the marine environment. Contributions from world leaders in scallop research and culture cover all facets of scallop biology including anatomy, taxonomy, physiology, ecology, larval biology and neurobiology. Chapters are also devoted to diseases and parasites, genetics, population dynamics and the adductor muscle, with extensive reference lists provided for each chapter.

The Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation: Self-Focusing and Wave Collapse (Applied Mathematical Sciences/139)

The Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation: Self-Focusing and Wave Collapse (Applied Mathematical Sciences/139)
Springer | June 18, 1999 | ISBN-10: 0387986111 | 350 pages | DJvu | 2.2 mb

This monograph aims to fill the gap between the mathematical literature which significantly contributed during the last decade to the understanding of the collapse phenomenon, and applications to domains like plasma physics and nonlinear optics where this process provides a fundamental mechanism for small scale formation and wave dissipation. This results in a localized heating of the medium and in the case of propagation in a dielectric to possible degradation of the material. For this purpose, the authors have chosen to address the problem of wave collapse by several methods ranging from rigorous mathematical analysis to formal asymptotic expansions and numerical simulations.

The Implicit Genome

The Implicit Genome
Oxford University Press, USA | February 2, 2006 | ISBN-10: 019517271X | 400 pages | PDF | 4.71 mb

For over half a century, we have been in the thrall of the double-helicaln structure of DNA, which, in an instant, revealed that information can be transferred between generations by a simple rule, A pairs with T, G pairs with C. In its beautiful simplicity, this structure, along with the table of codons worked out in the following decade, had entranced us into believing that we can fully understand the information content of a DNA sequence, simply by treating it as text that is read in a linear fashion.

The Rise & Fall of Development Theory (Repost)

The Rise & Fall of Development Theory
Indiana University Press | ISBN 025321016X | 2005-11-14 | PDF | 224 pages | 26.61 MB

This book is a "stock-taking" of development theory at the end of the 20th century. It argues that the assumptions on which development theory has rested since the 1950s no longer hold. The postcolonial "third world" for which development theory was originally developed has fractured into increasingly diverse regions, while the end of the postwar regime of regulated international trade and capital movements has drastically curtailed the scope for state economic intervention. A much broader based, more historical and more explicitly political theoretical effort is now called for.

Cyclotomic Fields and Zeta Values (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)

Cyclotomic Fields and Zeta Values (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)
Springer | October 5, 2006 | ISBN-10: 3540330682 | 116 pages | PDF | 2 mb

Cyclotomic fields have always occupied a central place in number theory, and the so called "main conjecture" on cyclotomic fields is arguably the deepest and most beautiful theorem known about them. It is also the simplest example of a vast array of subsequent, unproven "main conjectures'' in modern arithmetic geometry involving the arithmetic behaviour of motives over p-adic Lie extensions of number fields. These main conjectures are concerned with what one might loosely call the exact formulae of number theory which conjecturally link the special values of zeta and L-functions to purely arithmetic expressions.

Springer | ISBN : 0387228349 | 1 ed. (Sept 23, 2004) | 238 pages| PDF | 13.6 Mb

This book addresses "front end" questions and issues encountered in using the Verilog HDL, during all the stages of Hardware Design, Synthesis and Verification. The issues discussed in the book are typically encountered in both ASIC design projects as well as in Soft IP designs. These issues are addressed in a simple Q&A format. Since each issue is independently dealt with and explained in detail, this book acts as an important source of reference for the Verilog users. Each of the FAQs will be illustrated with figures and tables as required. The latest Verilog-2001 and SystemVerilog have also been referred to in this book.
