Informazioni sull’autore

Robin Pemantle grew up in Berkeley in the 1960’s and 70’s. You can probablyguess what that was like; then double that. He became interested in mathematics when he was very young. By age four, according to family lore, mathematics was his
career plan (to the chagrin of NASA and the local fire stations). Robin’s PhD in probability theory got its start when Persi Diaconis, a mathematician and former magician, visited M.I.T. Robin was supposed to be working on a dissertation in combinatorics (a subject to which he later returned), but found himself working mostly on problems he heard from Persi. During a year off traveling in the South Pacific, he ended up working on probability theory in various youth hostels and on boats. Robin received his PhD in 1988, spent three years on post-doctoral fellowships in Berkeley, Ithaca and Oregon State, most of the 1990’s at UW-Madison, three years at Ohio State, and has been at Penn since 2003. Robin’s research focuses on two areas. Within Probability Theory, the research concerns discrete probability models, including random graph theory, processes with reinforcement, statistical models and random walks. The other research area, analytic combinatorics, is the subject of a textbook with Mark C. Wilson and Steve Melczer (2013, 2024). Robin has been interested in Mathematics Education from an early age, growing up with an insider’s view of an alternative school, and teaching mathematics to grades 5–8 during his college years and before. Robin has written books and articles on mathematics education, most recently having published a book on K-12 education, with co-author Henri Picciotto, entitled, “There is No One Way to Teach Math.”
(Routledge, 2024). In direct and indirect ways, Project SEED has played a big role in Robin’s life as a math educator. Robin has held a Sloan Fellowship, a Presidential Faculty Fellowship, the Rollo Davidson Prize, and a Lilly Teaching Fellowship. He was a top five finisher in the Putnam Competition and is a Simons Fellow, a fellow of the American Mathematical Society and a fellow of the Institute for Mathematical Statistics. Most recently, he was inducted into the National Academy of Sciences as a member of the class of 2024.

Julian Gould grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis, Minnesota. His father’s advice was always, “Take math until you just can’t take it anymore.” The advice had a much larger impact on Julian’s life than intended. Julian received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Johns Hopkins University, and is hopefully no longer a PhD candidate in mathematics at the University of Pennsylvania. He originally planned to study homotopy type theory, but his research took a turn toward applied algebraic topology and cellular sheaf theory. Before beginning his PhD, Julian worked as an associate quantitative analyst at T. Rowe Price in Baltimore. Julian’s passion for teaching began during his freshman year at Johns Hopkins, tutoring the football team in economics. He has received multiple honors for his work in the classroom, including Penn’s university-wide Dean’s Award for Distinguished Teaching by Graduate Students. He serves as a Master TA in the Penn mathematics department and helps lead the annual training for first-time teaching assistants. His friendship with Robin began when he was a teaching assistant for Robin’s introductory
calculus course for Wharton students. Julian has mentored seven undergraduate students through Penn’s Directed Reading
Program on topics ranging from descriptive set theory and categorical computer science to financial mathematics, topological data analysis, and game-theoretic models of international relations. His experiences mentoring students helped motivate and inspire many aspects of this book. When he isn’t doing math, Julian likes to write about philosophy, trade on prediction markets, and pick up heavy things.

Diritto di recesso

Instructions for revocation

Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods

Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)

Instructions for revocation

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;

To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.

You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.

In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.

Consequences of the revocation

If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.

We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.

You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.

You bear the direct costs for returning the products.

You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.

Criteria for exclusion or expiry

The revocation right is not available for contracts

for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
