(22,5 x 15 cm). 5 S. Klammerheftung. (Sonderdruck aus: Proceedings of the Third International Conference on OR, Oslo). Erste Ausgabe im sehr seltenen Sonderdruck. - Koopman (1900-1981) studierte in Harvard bei Birkhoff Mathematik und wurde 1955 auf die renommierte Adrian-Professur an der Columbia University berufen. Er war Gründungsmitglied der Operations Research Society of America (ORSA) und deren Präsident von 1957-58. Die Nachkriegsjahre vebrachte er am Institut für Verteidigungsanalyse und verbesserte die Komunikation zwischen dem Verteidigungsministerium der Vereinigten Staaten, dem Militär- und Geheimdienst des Vereinigten Königreichs und der NATO. Er erhielt zahlreiche Auszeichnungen, darunter den Wanner Award der Military Operations Research Society für sein Verdienste um den militärischen Operations Research. - Gut erhalten.

Erste Ausgabe in den seltenen Sonderdrucken. - "In the conventional search situation, there are three general features: I The kinematic bases, involving the positions, geometrical configurations, and motions in the searchers and targets, with particular reference to the statistics of their contacts and the probabilities of their reaching various specified relative positions. II. The probabilistic behavior of the instrument of detection (eye, radar, sonar, etc) when making a given passage relative to the target. III. The over-all result - the probability of contact under general stated conditions, along with the possibility of optimizing the results by improving the methods of directing the search" (Abstract). - Koopman (1900-1981) studierte in Harvard bei Birkhoff Mathematik und wurde 1955 auf die renommierte Adrian-Professur an der Columbia University berufen.

Reprinted from the "Transactions of the American Mathematical Society," Vol. XXIX, No. 2, pp. 287-331. 1927. Small quarto, printed wraps. First Edition. Koopman [1900-1981] was a French-born American mathematician known for his work in ergodic theory, the foundation of probability, statistical theory and operations research. Signed by Koopman on the title page. With "Property of Thomas S. [Schrecher?], From the author," penned inside the front cover, in another hand.

Easton, PA., Mack printing Compagny, 1931. Royal8vo. Contemp. full cloth. Spine gilt and with gilt lettering. In: "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America", Vol. 17. VII,710 pp. (Entire volume offered). The papers: pp. 315-318, 650-655 and 656-660. First editions of these importent papers in statistical mechanics. The so-called Koopman-von Neumann mechanics is a description of classical mechanics in terms of Hilbert space, introduced by Bernard Koopman (the paper offered) and John von Neumann in 1931 and 1932. Ergodicity was introduced by Boltzmann, but the modern theory started from the paper by Koopman, and has been a cornerstone of statistical mechanics since. The ergodic method has found impressive applications in the fields of statistical mechanics, number theory, probability theory, harmonic analysis, and combinatorics.As Koopman and von Neumann demonstrated, a Hilbert space of complex, square integrable wavefunctions can be defined in which classical mechanics can be formulated as an operatorial theory similar to quantum mechanics.Birkhoff's proof (in the third paper offered) of "the ergodic theorem was deemed as importent as his proof of Poincare's geometric theorem" (Landmarks Writing in Western Mathematics 1640-1940, p. 877).
