From Quantum Cohomology to Integrable Systems

By: Martin A. Guest

Quantum cohomology has its origins in symplectic geometry and algebraic geometry, but is deeply related to differential equations and integrable systems. This text explains what is behind the extraordinary success of quantum cohomology, leading to its connections with many existing areas of mathematics as well as its appearance in new areas such as mirror symmetry. Certain kinds of differential equations (or D-modules) provide the key links between quantum cohomology and traditional mathematics; these links are the main focus of the book, and quantum cohomology and other integrable PDEs such as the KdV equation and the harmonic map equation are discussed within this unified framework. Aimed at graduate students in mathematics who want to learn about quantum cohomology in a broad context, and theoretical physicists who are interested in the mathematical setting, the text assumes basic familiarity with differential equations and cohomology.

An Australian Girl

By: Catherine Martin

As Australia began the process of breaking away from its from status a British colony, Catherine Martin was fascinated with the meaning of Australian culture and identity. She examines these issues through the story of the independent and intelligent Stella Courtland, a young girt who marries and finds herself hampered by the social constraints of her new life. In this sensitive Late of moral and emotional growth, Martin brilliantly captures this turning point in Australian history and anticipates the values of a new generation.

State Of Bass

The Origins of Jungle/Drum & Bass

By: Martin James

Jungle and Drum & Bass was like nothing else the world had experienced before - simultaneously black and white, urban and suburban, old skool attitude and new school innovation. A socio-cultural melting pot of early 90s broken Britain seizing the wheel and taking control of the machine. Originally published in 1997, State of Bass explores the scene's roots through its social, cultural and musical antecedents and on to its emergence via the debate that surrounded the apparent split between jungle and drum & bass. Drawing on interviews with some of the key figures in the early years, State of Bass explores the sonic shifts and splinters of new variants, styles and subgenres as it charts the journey from the early days to its position as a global phenomenon. State of Bass extends the original text to include the award of the Mercury Prize to Reprazent for the New Forms album and brings new perspectives to the story of the UK's most important subterranean urban energy.

Country Lives Remembered

By: Brian P. Martin

A portrait of old-fashioned life in the English countryside, with profiles of a beekeeper, a farrier, a master thatcher, and more. This unique book offers an evocative look at the lives of twelve English countrymen, spanning from the Edwardian period right through to today—and the skills and trades, some forgotten or seemingly obsolete, that allowed rural communities to grow and thrive with a culture of resourcefulness, self-sufficiency, and harmony with nature. From Ernest Sharp the thatcher to George Ranger the farrier; and from John Furzey the beekeeper to Bill Thomson the hurdle maker, experience the working and home lives of these colorful characters in the idyllic—but hardworking—English countryside.

What Determines an Algebraic Variety?

(AMS-216)

By: János Kollár,Max Lieblich,Martin Olsson,Will Sawin

A pioneering new nonlinear approach to a fundamental question in algebraic geometry One of the crowning achievements of nineteenth-century mathematics was the proof that the geometry of lines in space uniquely determines the Cartesian coordinates, up to a linear ambiguity. What Determines an Algebraic Variety? develops a nonlinear version of this theory, offering the first nonlinear generalization of the seminal work of Veblen and Young in a century. While the book uses cutting-edge techniques, the statements of its theorems would have been understandable a century ago; despite this, the results are totally unexpected. Putting geometry first in algebraic geometry, the book provides a new perspective on a classical theorem of fundamental importance to a wide range of fields in mathematics. Starting with basic observations, the book shows how to read off various properties of a variety from its geometry. The results get stronger as the dimension increases. The main result then says that a normal projective variety of dimension at least 4 over a field of characteristic 0 is completely determined by its Zariski topological space. There are many open questions in dimensions 2 and 3, and in positive characteristic.

Compactifying Moduli Spaces for Abelian Varieties

By: Martin C. Olsson

This volume presents the construction of canonical modular compactifications of moduli spaces for polarized Abelian varieties (possibly with level structure), building on the earlier work of Alexeev, Nakamura, and Namikawa. This provides a different approach to compactifying these spaces than the more classical approach using toroical embeddings, which are not canonical. There are two main new contributions in this monograph: (1) The introduction of logarithmic geometry as understood by Fontaine, Illusie, and Kato to the study of degenerating Abelian varieties; and (2) the construction of canonical compactifications for moduli spaces with higher degree polarizations based on stack-theoretic techniques and a study of the theta group.

Location-Aware Environmental Monitoring For Mobile Workers

By: Martin Christl

Master's Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: Sehr Gut, University of Vienna (Distributed und Multimedia Systems), course: Spezialisierung: Vernetzte und Verteilte Systeme, 69 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: The aim of this master's thesis ist to investigate the practicability and usability of mobile GIS applications in a selected real-world scenario in the field. Therefore the important questions are how to provide correct geospatial positioning values and how to support the gathering of useful data in extreme field situations by implementing a mobile GIS prototype. The whole project discussed in this thesis was initiated by the "Institute of Distributed and Multimedia Systems" (Faculty of Computer Sciences) through the "Austrian GRID" initiative in a close collaboration with the Umweltbundesamt, the "Federal Environment Agency of Austria". An environmental observation area in the national park "Northern Calcareous Alps" in Upper Austria, called "Z belboden" was chosen to test the accuracy of GPS signals and according positioning data in forested or mountainous areas as well as to study the advantages and benefits of using mobile devices in outdoor situations and free nature. This area, a part of the UN ECE's Integrated Monitoring Programme, is used for long-term environmental data in selected observation areas. Exactly this project is a multidisciplinary International Cooperative Programme (ICP) on Integrated Monitoring (IM) of Air Pollution Effects on Ecosystems, which covers regions of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UN ECE). In this master thesis a prototype will be introduced which allows capturing the desired ecological data digitally using a personal digital assistant (PDA). An easy-to-use application based on ESRI's ArcPad Application Developer has been developed for use on Windows Mobile PocketPCs which integrates the Umweltbundesamt's own ESRI dat

Attractivity and Bifurcation for Nonautonomous Dynamical Systems

By: Martin Rasmussen

Although, bifurcation theory of equations with autonomous and periodic time dependence is a major object of research in the study of dynamical systems since decades, the notion of a nonautonomous bifurcation is not yet established. In this book, two different approaches are developed which are based on special definitions of local attractivity and repulsivity. It is shown that these notions lead to nonautonomous Morse decompositions.
