Mathematics and Statistics

From the Back CoverThis book follows the same successful approach as Dr. Burn's previous book on number theory. It consists of a carefully constructed sequence of questions which will enable the reader, through his or her own participation, to gen...

About the Book Young scientists in Russia are continuing the outstanding tradition of Russian mathematics in their home country, in spite of the post-Soviet diaspora. This collection, the second of two, showcases the recent achievements of young R...

About the Book This book is for anyone who has biomedical data and needs to identify variables that predict an outcome, for two-group outcomes such as tumor/not-tumor, survival/death, or response from treatment. Statistical learning machines are i...

About the Book This classic in stochastic network modelling broke new ground when it was published in 1979, and it remains a superb introduction to reversibility and its applications. The book concerns behaviour in equilibrium of vector stochastic...

About the Book This volume provides a systematic presentation of the theory of differential tensor algebras and their categories of modules. It involves reduction techniques which have proved to be very useful in the development of representation ...

How Humans Learn to Think Mathematically describes the development of mathematical thinking from the young child to the sophisticated adult. Professor David Tall's analysis offers a shared framework for understanding mathematical growth from pract...

The work of Hermann Weyl has had a lasting influence on areas of mathematics such as topological groups, Lie groups and representation theory, harmonic analysis, and on the foundations of mathematics itself. In this volume leading experts outline ...

Presenting papers by researchers in transcendental complex dynamics and complex analysis, this book is written in honour of Noel Baker, a leading exponent of transcendental dynamics. The papers describe the state of the art in this subject, with m...
