  • Authors: Neal Koblitz (1984)

  • The first edition of this work has become the standard introduction to the theory of p-adic numbers at both the advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate level. This second edition includes a deeper treatment of p-adic functions in Ch. 4 to include the Iwasawa logarithm and the p-adic gamma-function, the rearrangement and addition of some exercises, the inclusion of an extensive appendix of answers and hints to the exercises, as well as numerous clarifications.

  • Authors: Howard Anton (2005)

  • This classic treatment of linear algebra presents the fundamentals in the clearest possible way, examining basic ideas by means of computational examples and geometrical interpretation. It proceeds from familiar concepts to the unfamiliar, from the concrete to the abstract. Readers consistently praise this outstanding text for its expository style and clarity of presentation. The applications version features a wide variety of interesting, contemporary applications. Clear, accessible, step-by-step explanations make the material crystal clear. Established the intricate thread of relationships between systems of equations, matrices, determinants, vectors, linear transformations and eigenvalues.

  • Authors: Elio Canestrelli (2008)

  • This is the second of two special issues of Mathematical Methods in Economics and Finance devoted to the International Conference MAF 2008 – Mathematical and Statistical Methods for Actuarial Sciences and Finance held in Venice (Italy) from March 26 to 28, 2008. The conference has been the first international edition of a biennial national series begun at 2004, which was born by a brilliant belief of the colleagues – and friends – of the Department of Economics and Statistical Sciences of the University of Salerno: the idea following which the cooperation between mathematicians and statisticians in working in actuarial sciences, in insurance and in finance can improve research on these topics. The proof of the goodness of this belief has consisted in the wide participation to these...

  • Authors: G. K. Batchelor (2000)

  • First published in 1967, Professor Batchelor's classic work is still one of the foremost texts on fluid dynamics. His careful presentation of the underlying theories of fluids is still timely and applicable, even in these days of almost limitless computer power. This reissue ensures that a new generation of graduate students experiences the elegance of Professor Batchelor's writing.

  • Authors: Blitzer, Robert (2012)

  • Bob Blitzer has inspired thousands of students with his engaging approach to mathematics, making this beloved series the #1 in the market. Blitzer draws on his unique background in mathematics and behavioral science to present the full scope of mathematics with vivid applications in real-life situations. Students stay engaged because Blitzer often uses pop-culture and up-to-date references to connect math to students’ lives, showing that their world is profoundly mathematical.

  • Variational inequalities proved to be a very useful and powerful tool for in­ vestigation and solution of many equilibrium type problems in Economics, Engineering, Operations Research and Mathematical Physics. In fact, varia­ tional inequalities for example provide a unifying framework for the study of such diverse problems as boundary value problems, price equilibrium prob­ lems and traffic network equilibrium problems. Besides, they are closely re­ lated with many general problems of Nonlinear Analysis, such as fixed point, optimization and complementarity problems. As a result, the theory and so­ lution methods for variational inequalities have been studied extensively, and considerable advances have been made in these areas. This book is devoted to a new general approach to cons...
