  • Art Meets Mathematics in the Fourth Dimension

    by Stephen Leon Lipscomb ...
    To see objects that live in the fourth dimension we humans would need to add a fourth dimension to our three-dimensional vision. An example of such an object that lives in the fourth dimension is a hyper-sphere or “3-sphere.” The quest to imagine the elusive 3-sphere has deep historical roots: medieval poet Dante Alighieri used a 3-sphere to convey his allegorical vision of the Christian afterlife ...

  • Indra's Pearls

    The Vision of Felix Klein

    by David Mumford, Caroline Series, David Wright ...
    Felix Klein, one of the great nineteenth-century geometers, discovered in mathematics an idea prefigured in Buddhist mythology: the heaven of Indra contained a net of pearls, each of which was reflected in its neighbour, so that the whole Universe was mirrored in each pearl. Klein studied infinitely repeated reflections and was led to forms with multiple coexisting symmetries. For a century, these ... Read more

  • Differential Topology

    by C. T. C. Wall ...
    Series Book 156 - Cambridge Studies in Advanced Mathematics
    Exploring the full scope of differential topology, this comprehensive account of geometric techniques for studying the topology of smooth manifolds offers a wide perspective on the field. Building up from first principles, concepts of manifolds are introduced, supplemented by thorough appendices giving background on topology and homotopy theory. Deep results are then developed from these ... Read more

  • Hyperbolic Manifolds

    An Introduction in 2 and 3 Dimensions

    by Albert Marden ...
    Over the past three decades there has been a total revolution in the classic branch of mathematics called 3-dimensional topology, namely the discovery that most solid 3-dimensional shapes are hyperbolic 3-manifolds. This book introduces and explains hyperbolic geometry and hyperbolic 3- and 2-dimensional manifolds in the first two chapters and then goes on to develop the subject. The author ... Read more

  • Reversibility in Dynamics and Group Theory

    by Anthony G. O'Farrell, Ian Short ...
    Series Book 416 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    Reversibility is a thread woven through many branches of mathematics. It arises in dynamics, in systems that admit a time-reversal symmetry, and in group theory where the reversible group elements are those that are conjugate to their inverses. However, the lack of a lingua franca for discussing reversibility means that researchers who encounter the concept may be unaware of related work in other ... Read more

  • Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations: Volume 1

    Edited by Fred Diamond, Payman L. Kassaei, Minhyong Kim ...
    Series Book 414 - London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series
    Automorphic forms and Galois representations have played a central role in the development of modern number theory, with the former coming to prominence via the celebrated Langlands program and Wiles' proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. This two-volume collection arose from the 94th LMS-EPSRC Durham Symposium on 'Automorphic Forms and Galois Representations' in July 2011, the aim of which was to ... Read more

  • The Statistical Mechanics of Interacting Walks, Polygons, Animals and Vesicles

    by E.J. Janse van Rensburg ...
    Series series Oxford Lecture Series in Mathematics and Its Applications
    The self-avoiding walk is a classical model in statistical mechanics, probability theory and mathematical physics. It is also a simple model of polymer entropy which is useful in modelling phase behaviour in polymers. This monograph provides an authoritative examination of interacting self-avoiding walks, presenting aspects of the thermodynamic limit, phase behaviour, scaling and critical ... Read more

  • Coherence in Three-Dimensional Category Theory

    by Nick Gurski ...
    Series Book 201 - Cambridge Tracts in Mathematics
    Dimension three is an important test-bed for hypotheses in higher category theory and occupies something of a unique position in the categorical landscape. At the heart of matters is the coherence theorem, of which this book provides a definitive treatment, as well as covering related results. Along the way the author treats such material as the Gray tensor product and gives a construction of the ... Read more
