  • Symbol Correspondences for Spin Systems

    by Pedro de M. Rios, Eldar Straume ...
    In mathematical physics, the correspondence between quantum and classical mechanics is a central topic, which this book explores in more detail in the particular context of spin systems, that is, SU(2)-symmetric mechanical systems. A detailed presentation of quantum spin-j systems, with emphasis on the SO(3)-invariant decomposition of their operator algebras, is first followed by an introduction ... Read more

  • Finitely Generated Abelian Groups and Similarity of Matrices over a Field

    by Christopher Norman ...
    Series series Mathematics and Statistics (R0)
    At first sight, finitely generated abelian groups and canonical forms of matrices appear to have little in common. However, reduction to Smith normal form, named after its originator H.J.S.Smith in 1861, is a matrix version of the Euclidean algorithm and is exactly what the theory requires in both cases. Starting with matrices over the integers, Part 1 of this book provides a measured introduction ... Read more

    My Decision at This Point in History

    by Soo-Inn Tan ...
    Series series The Bible & the Ballot
    In most mature democracies, the government changes hands from time to time. A change of government doesn’t usher in the apocalypse.
