Liouville-Riemann-Roch Theorems on Abelian Coverings (Lecture Notes in Mathematics #2245)
by Minh Kha Peter KuchmentThis book is devoted to computing the index of elliptic PDEs on non-compact Riemannian manifolds in the presence of local singularities and zeros, as well as polynomial growth at infinity. The classical Riemann–Roch theorem and its generalizations to elliptic equations on bounded domains and compact manifolds, due to Maz’ya, Plameneskii, Nadirashvilli, Gromov and Shubin, account for the contribution to the index due to a divisor of zeros and singularities. On the other hand, the Liouville theorems of Avellaneda, Lin, Li, Moser, Struwe, Kuchment and Pinchover provide the index of periodic elliptic equations on abelian coverings of compact manifolds with polynomial growth at infinity, i.e. in the presence of a "divisor" at infinity.A natural question is whether one can combine the Riemann–Roch and Liouville type results. This monograph shows that this can indeed be done, however the answers are more intricate than one might initially expect. Namely, the interaction between the finite divisor and the point at infinity is non-trivial.The text is targeted towards researchers in PDEs, geometric analysis, and mathematical physics.

L'isomorphisme entre les tours de Lubin-Tate et de Drinfeld (Progress in Mathematics #262)
by Laurent Fargues Alain Genestier Vincent LafforgueCe livre contient une démonstration détaillée et complète de l'existence d'un isomorphisme équivariant entre les tours p-adiques de Lubin-Tate et de Drinfeld. Le résultat est établi en égales et inégales caractéristiques. Il y est également donné comme application une démonstration du fait que les cohomologies équivariantes de ces deux tours sont isomorphes, un résultat qui a des applications à l'étude de la correspondance de Langlands locale. Au cours de la preuve des rappels et des compléments sont donnés sur la structure des deux espaces de modules précédents, les groupes formels p-divisibles et la géométrie analytique rigide p-adique. This book gives a complete and thorough proof of the existence of an equivariant isomorphism between Lubin-Tate and Drinfeld towers in infinite level. The result is established in equal and inequal characteristics. Moreover, the book contains as an application the proof of the equality between the equivariant cohomology of both towers, a result that has applications to the local Langlands correspondence. Along the proof background and complements are given on the structure of both moduli spaces, p-divisible formal groups and p-adic rigid analytic geometry.

Lit and Dark Liquidity with Lost Time Data: Interlinked Trading Venues Around The Global Financial Crisis
by T. VuorenmaaSince the 2008 financial crisis, researchers and policy makers have been looking to empirical data to distil both what happened and how a similar event can be avoided in the future. In Lit and Dark Liquidity with Lost Time Data, Vuorenmaa analyses liquidity to better understand the crux of the financial crisis. By relating liquidity to jump activity, market microstructure noise variance, and average pairwise correlation, Vuorenmaa uncovers the dynamics and ramifications behind anonymous trades made outside of public exchanges, and measures its impact on the crisis. This volume is ideal for academics, students, and practitioners alike, who are interested in investigating the role of lost time in and after the recession.
Literary Heterogenesis: Diagrammatic Dynamics. The Interplay Between the Virtual and the Actual (Lecture Notes in Morphogenesis)
by Noëlle BattThis book advances a new interdisciplinary approach that engages with the concepts of science and literature through the mediation of philosophy (with a focus on the ideas of Gilbert Simondon and Gilles Deleuze). It investigates in innovative ways the multifaceted dimensions of creation, of genesis, considered here in artistic and mathematical terms as “heterogenesis”. The dialogic interaction among the three domains generates a renewed analysis of poems selected in the work of particularly inventive poets, both French and American—Emily Dickinson, e.e. cummings and Francis Ponge—as well as the artwork of Pierre Soulages, Anna-Eva Bergman and Cy Twombly. Literary Heterogenesis. Diagrammatic Dynamics. The Interplay of the Virtual and the Actual will interest specialists of mathematics, physics, literary theory and criticism, philosophy, and epistemology. It will also attract any curious mind drawn to the bridging of disciplines and the concepts of the two cultures.

The Little Book of Bigger Primes
by Paulo RibenboimThis book could have been called "Selections from the Book of Prime Number Records." However, I prefered the title which propelled you on the first place to open it, and perhaps (so I hope) to buy it! Richard K. Guy, with his winning ways, suggested the title to me, and I am grateful. But the book isn't very different from its parent. Like a bonsai, which has all the main characteristics of the full-sized tree, this little paperback should exert the same fatal attraction. I wish it to be as dangerous as the other one, in the saying of John Brillhart. I wish that you, young student, teacher or retired mathematician, engineer, computer buff, all of you who are friends of numbers, to be driven into thinking about the beautiful theory of prime numbers, with its inherent mystery. I wish you to exercise your brain and fingers-not vice-versa. But I do not wish you, specialist in number theory to look at this little book-most likely you have been eliminated from this shorter version-what a terrible feeling. But do not cry, you had your book already. This one is for those who will be taking over and should put their steps forward, mostly little, occasionally giant, to develop the science of numbers.
