This book explores the Lipschitz spinorial groups (versor, pinor, spinor and rotor groups) of a real non-degenerate orthogonal geometry (or orthogonal geometry, for short) and how they relate to the group of isometries of that geometry.After a concise mathematical introduction, it offers an axiomatic presentation of the geometric algebra of an orthogonal geometry. Once it has established the language of geometric algebra (linear grading of the algebra; geometric, exterior and interior products; involutions), it defines the spinorial groups, demonstrates their relation to the isometry groups, and illustrates their suppleness (geometric covariance) with a variety of examples. Lastly, the book provides pointers to major applications, an extensive bibliography and an alphabetic index.Combining the characteristics of a self-contained research monograph and a state-of-the-art survey, this book is a valuable foundation reference resource on applications for both undergraduate and graduate students.

This book develops limit theorems for a natural class of long range random walks on finitely generated torsion free nilpotent groups. The limits in these limit theorems are Lévy processes on some simply connected nilpotent Lie groups. Both the limit Lévy process and the limit Lie group carrying this process are determined by and depend on the law of the original random walk. The book offers the first systematic study of such limit theorems involving stable-like random walks and stable limit Lévy processes in the context of (non-commutative) nilpotent groups.

The Yau-Tian-Donaldson conjecture for anti-canonical polarization was recently solved affirmatively by Chen-Donaldson-Sun and Tian. In this book, the unsolved cases of the conjecture will be discussed.It will be shown that the problem is closely related to the geometry of moduli spaces of test configurations for polarized algebraic manifolds.

The book is primarily intended for graduate students, researchers, and engineers working in related fields of application, and it can also be used as a support for graduate and doctoral lectures.

The Iitaka conjecture for fiber spaces whose base space is of general type is also proved as an easy application of Viehweg's weak positivity theorem, and the Viehweg conjecture for fiber spaces whose general fibers are elliptic curves is explained.

This book aims to establish a foundation for fractional derivatives and fractional differential equations.

It serves as an almost self-contained introduction to the theory of complex algebraic surfaces, including concise proofs of Gorenstein's theorem for curves on a surface and Noether's formula for the arithmetic genus.

This book explores topics in Gallai-Ramsey theory, which looks into whether rainbow colored subgraphs or monochromatic subgraphs exist in a sufficiently large edge-colored complete graphs.

In particular, the topological derivative is used here in numerical methods of shape optimization, with applications in the context of compliance structural topology optimization and topology design of compliant mechanisms.

The purpose of this book is to provide background and principal results on these topics, along with same related problems and conjectures, for researchers in these areas.

This book in the BCAM SpringerBriefs series is a treatise on the p-Laplace equation. The p-Laplace equation is a far-reaching generalization of the ordinary Laplace equation, but it is non-linear and degenerate (p>2) or singular (p

The aim of this book is to present results related to Kato's famous inequality for bounded linear operators on complex Hilbert spaces obtained by the author in a sequence of recent research papers. As Linear Operator Theory in Hilbert spaces plays a central role in contemporary mathematics, with numerous applications in fields including Partial Differential Equations, Approximation Theory, Optimization Theory, and Numerical Analysis, the volume is intended for use by both researchers in various fields and postgraduate students and scientists applying inequalities in their specific areas. For the sake of completeness, all the results presented are completely proved and the original references where they have been firstly obtained are mentioned.
