Dieses Buch vermittelt Lesern ein grundlegendes Verständnis und stellt Algorithmen vor, die vielleicht erst in einigen Jahren umgesetzt werden. Das Buch richtet sich in erster Linie an Informatiker (Studenten ab dem 5. Semester). Aber auch interessierte Nichtinfomatiker profitieren von diesem Buch, wobei es grundlegende Kenntnisse der Mathematik und Informatik voraussetzt. Ziele, Kernaussagen und Ergebnisse sollten jedoch allen Lesern klar werden. 308 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Eigenvectors of graph Laplacians have not, to date, been the subject of expository articles and thus they may seem a surprising topic for a book. The authors propose two motivations for this new LNM volume: (1) There are fascinating subtle differences between the properties of solutions of Schrödinger equations on manifolds on the one hand, and their discrete analogs on graphs. (2) 'Geometric' properties of (cost) functions defined on the vertex sets of graphs are of practical interest for heuristic optimization algorithms. The observation that the cost functions of quite a few of the well-studied combinatorial optimization problems are eigenvectors of associated graph Laplacians has prompted the investigation of such eigenvectors.The volume investigates the structure of eigenvectors and looks at the number of their sign graphs ('nodal domains'), Perron components, graphs with extremal properties with respect to eigenvectors. The Rayleigh quotient and rearrangement of graphs form the main methodology. 120 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Die letzten Jahre der deutschen Wirtschaft sind durch eine schwierige konjunkturelle Situation gekennzeichnet gewesen. Auch in Zukunft wird durch Veränderung ganzer Industrien die Situation besonders für mittelständische Unternehmen nicht einfacher. Unternehmensinsolvenzen waren und sind die Folge von dramatischen Umbruchsituationen bei Großkonzernen und vor allem auch im Mittelstand. Je nach rechtlichen und wirtschaftlichen Rahmenbedingungen stellt sich oftmals die Frage, ob der Unternehmer das Unternehmen selbst aus der Krisensituation führen kann oder ob ein Verkauf des Unternehmens der einzige Weg ist, zumindest einen Teil des Unternehmens und der darin vorhandenen Arbeitsplätze zu sichern. Das vorliegende Buch zeigt den Prozess beim Unternehmensverkauf in der Krise auf, zeigt, wie ein Verkauf im Insolvenzverfahren stattfindet und welche Lösungsmöglichkeiten existieren, trotz oder gerade durch ein Insolvenzverfahren ein Unternehmen in eine neue Zukunft zu führen. 128 pp. Deutsch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Who could have predicted that the S eminaire de Probabilit es would reach the age of 40 This long life is rst due to the vitality of the French probabil- tic school, for which the S eminaire remains one of the most speci c media of exchange. Another factor is the amount of enthusiasm, energy and time invested year after year by the R edacteurs: Michel Ledoux dedicated himself tothistaskuptoVolumeXXXVIII,andMarcYormadehisnameinseparable from the S eminaire by devoting himself to it during a quarter of a century. Browsing among the past volumes can only give a faint glimpse of how much is owed to them; keeping up with the standard they have set is a challenge to the new R edaction. In a changing world where the status of paper and ink is questioned and where, alas, pressure for publishing is increasing, in particular among young mathematicians, we shall try and keep the same direction. Although most contributions are anonymously refereed, the S eminaire is not a mathema- cal journal; our rst criterion is not mathematical depth, but usefulness to the French and international probabilistic community. We do not insist that everything published in these volumes should have reached its nal form or be original, and acceptance-rejection may not be decided on purely scienti c grounds. 504 pp. Englisch, Französisch.
