Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A ring R satisfies a polynomial identity if there is a polynomial f in noncommuting variables which vanishes under substitutions from R. For example, commutative rings satisfy the polynomial f(x,y) = xy - yx and exterior algebras satisfy the polynomial f(x,y,z) = (xy - yx)z - z(xy - yx). 'Satisfying a polynomial identity' is often regarded as a generalization of commutativity.These lecture notes treat polynomial identity rings from both the combinatorial and structural points of view. The former studies the ideal of polynomial identities satisfied by a ring R. The latter studies the properties of rings which satisfy a polynomial identity. The greater part of recent research in polynomial identity rings is about combinatorial questions, and the combinatorial part of the lecture notes gives an up-to-date account of recent research. On the other hand, the main structural results have been known for some time, and the emphasis there is on a presentation accessible to newcomers to the subject.The intended audience is graduate students in algebra, and researchers in algebra, combinatorics and invariant theory. 212 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This self-contained book examines results on transfinite graphs and networks achieved through continued research effort over the past several years. These new results, covering the mathematical theory of electrical circuits, are different from those presented in two previously published books by the author, Transfiniteness for Graphs, Electrical Networks, and Random Walks and Pristine Transfinite Graphs and Permissive Electrical Networks. Specific topics covered include connectedness ideas, distance ideas, and nontransitivity of connectedness.The book will appeal to a diverse readership, including graduate students, electrical engineers, mathematicians, and physicists working on infinite electrical networks. Moreover, the growing and presently substantial number of mathematicians working in nonstandard analysis may well be attracted by the novel application of the analysis employed in the work. 220 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -ANOVA models involving random effects have found widespread application to experimental design in varied fields such as biology, econometrics, and engineering. Volume I of this two-part work is a comprehensive presentation of methods and techniques for point estimation, interval estimation, and hypotheses tests for linear models involving random effects. Volume I examines models with balanced data (orthogonal models); Volume II studies models with unbalanced data (non-orthogonal models).Accessible to readers with a modest mathematical and statistical background, the work will appeal to a broad audience of graduate students, researchers, and practitioners. It can be used as a graduate text or as a self-study reference. 516 pp. Englisch.…

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This volume contains the third and fourth Poincaré Seminar, both held in 2003. The third one is devoted to Bose-Einstein Condensation: it covers the physics of superfluid liquid helium as well as the recently discovered atomic Bose-Einstein condensates. Major experimental results are presented, together with relevant theoretical approaches and remaining open questions. The fourth one is devoted to Entropy, giving a comprehensive account of the history and various realizations of this concept, from thermodynamics to black holes, and includes theoretical and experimental discussions of the corresponding fluctuations for mesoscopic systems near equilibrium. 264 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The purpose of this volume in the Progress in Inflammation Research series is to provide the biomedical and clinical researcher with a state-of-the-art insight in the role of cytokines in joint inflammation and joint destruction. This is of relevance for better understanding of key processes in diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). Apart from the impact of old and novel cytokines on joint tissues, the various chapters address the issue of targeted therapy with biological response modifiers and future interventions with carefully designed inhibitors. Spe cial attention is given to elements of synovial cell activation, cell-cell interaction, cytokine interplay as well as mechanisms of cartilage destruction and bone erosion. In addition to an outline of the role of established cytokines, such as TNF, IL-l and IL-6, new information is given on the novel cytokines IL-15, IL-17 and IL-18 and their positioning in the complex cytokine interplay. Cytokine regulation of destructive enzymes, RANKL, the endogenous inhibitor OPG and their crucial roles as central players in joint erosion are highlighted. Together, the chapters provide a complete and balanced view on pivotal cytokines and joint pathology. 296 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Many developments on the cutting edge of research in operator theory and its applications are reflected in this collection of original and review articles. Particular emphasis lies on highlighting the interplay between operator theory and applications from other areas, such as multi-dimensional systems and function theory of several complex variables, distributed parameter systems and control theory, mathematical physics, wavelets, and numerical analysis. 598 pp. Englisch.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Die Erforschung des Baugrundes als wichtiger Bestandteil einer Baumaßnahme ist eine relativ junge Wissenschaft. Falsche Einschätzung der Baugrundverhältnisse und hieraus resultierende, zum Teil erhebliche Haftungsrisiken haben es notwendig werden lassen, der Einstufung der Bodenverhältnisse, der Methodik der Baugrunderkundung und der Berechnung der Gründungsart ein Regelwerk voranzustellen. Für den Bauherrn ist wichtig, dass nur ausreichende und regelgerechte Baugrunduntersuchung ihm die gewünschte Planungssicherheit, Kostensicherheit und Schadensfreiheit bietet. Das Buch informiert über die Verfahren der Baugrund- und Bauwerksanalysen, Instandsetzungsverfahren von Gründungen und die Schadensbeseitigung durch Verpresstechniken. Zahlreiche Beispiele aus der Praxis dokumentieren Sanierungsleistungen an historischen Gebäuden, Stützmauern und Brücken. 252 pp. Deutsch.…
