Algebra For Secure And Reliable Communication Modeling

This volume contains the proceedings of the CIMPA Research School and Conference on Algebra for Secure and Reliable Communication Modeling, held from October 1-13, 2012, in Morelia, State of Michoacán, Mexico. The papers cover several aspects of the theory of coding theory and are gathered into three categories: general theory of linear codes, algebraic geometry and coding theory, and constacyclic codes over rings. The aim of this volume is to fill the gap between the theoretical part of algebraic geometry and the applications to problem solving and computational modeling in engineering, signal processing and information theory. This book is published in cooperation with Real Sociedad Matemática Española (RSME).

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Algebraic and Analytic Aspects of Integrable Systems and Painlevé Equations, held on January 18, 2014, at the Joint Mathematics Meetings in Baltimore, MD. The theory of integrable systems has been at the forefront of some of the most important developments in mathematical physics in the last 50 years. The techniques to study such systems have solid foundations in algebraic geometry, differential geometry, and group representation theory. Many important special solutions of continuous and discrete integrable systems can be written in terms of special functions such as hypergeometric and basic hypergeometric functions. The analytic tools developed to study integrable systems have numerous applications in random matrix theory, statistical mechanics and quantum gravity. One of the most exciting recent developments has been the emergence of good and interesting discrete and quantum analogues of classical integrable differential equations, such as the Painlevé equations and soliton equations. Many algebraic and analytic ideas developed in the continuous case generalize in a beautifully natural manner to discrete integrable systems. The editors have sought to bring together a collection of expository and research articles that represent a good cross section of ideas and methods in these active areas of research within integrable systems and their applications.

A collection of articles discussing integrable systems and algebraic geometry from leading researchers in the field.

This volume contains the proceedings of the International Research Conference “Probability on Algebraic and Geometric Structures”, held from June 5–7, 2014, at Southern Illinois University, Carbondale, IL, celebrating the careers of Philip Feinsilver, Salah-Eldin A. Mohammed, and Arunava Mukherjea. These proceedings include survey papers and new research on a variety of topics such as probability measures and the behavior of stochastic processes on groups, semigroups, and Clifford algebras; algebraic methods for analyzing Markov chains and products of random matrices; stochastic integrals and stochastic ordinary, partial, and functional differential equations.

This volume contains the proceedings of the AMS Special Session on Harmonic Analysis and Its Applications held March 29-30, 2014, at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Baltimore, MD. It provides an in depth look at the many directions taken by experts in Harmonic Analysis and related areas. The papers cover topics such as frame theory, Gabor analysis, interpolation and Besov spaces on compact manifolds, Cuntz-Krieger algebras, reproducing kernel spaces, solenoids, hypergeometric shift operators and analysis on infinite dimensional groups. Expositions are by leading researchers in the field, both young and established. The papers consist of new results or new approaches to solutions, and at the same time provide an introduction into the respective subjects.

he papers in this volume are mainly from the 2013 Midwest Geometry Conference, held October 19, 2013, at Oklahoma State University, Stillwater, OK, and partly from the 2012 Midwest Geometry Conference, held May 12-13, 2012, at the University of Oklahoma, Norman, OK. The papers cover recent results on geometry and topology of submanifolds. On the topology side, topics include Plateau problems, Voevodsky's motivic cohomology, Reidemeister zeta function and systolic inequality, and freedom in 2- and 3-dimensional manifolds. On the geometry side, the authors discuss classifying isoparametric hypersurfaces and review Hartogs triangle, finite volume flows, nonexistence of stable p-currents, and a generalized Bernstein type problem. The authors also show that the interaction between topology and geometry is a key to deeply understanding topological invariants and the geometric problems.

This volume contains the proceedings of the Fifth Spanish Meeting on Number Theory, held from July 8-12, 2013, at the Universidad de Sevilla, Sevilla, Spain. The articles contained in this book give a panoramic vision of the current research in number theory, both in Spain and abroad. Some of the topics covered in this volume are classical algebraic number theory, arithmetic geometry, and analytic number theory. This book is published in cooperation with Real Sociedad Matemática Española (RSME).
