From Geometry to Quantum Mechanics: In Honor of Hideki Omori

This quantity consists of invited expository articles by way of famous mathematicians in differential geometry and mathematical physics which have been prepared in social gathering of Hideki Omori's contemporary retirement from Tokyo collage of technological know-how and in honor of his basic contributions to those parts.

Designing fair curves and surfaces: shape quality in geometric modeling and computer-aided design

This state of the art learn of the ideas used for designing curves and surfaces for computer-aided layout functions makes a speciality of the primary that reasonable shapes are consistently freed from unessential positive aspects and are uncomplicated in layout. The authors outline equity mathematically, show how newly constructed curve and floor schemes warrantly equity, and help the person in choosing and removal form aberrations in a floor version with out destroying the significant form features of the version.

Topological Topics: Articles on Algebra and Topology Presented to Professor P J Hilton in Celebration of his Sixtieth Birthday

Professor Peter Hilton is without doubt one of the most sensible recognized mathematicians of his iteration. He has released virtually three hundred books and papers on numerous facets of topology and algebra. the current quantity is to rejoice the get together of his 60th birthday. It starts off with a bibliography of his paintings, by means of experiences of his contributions to topology and algebra.

There is a vector-valued all points stress on CoB is given function t(x,n) x in St(C) and all unit vectors defined for n such that the acting on C is given by t(x; C) = t(x,n) where n is the exterior boundary unit normal of C in the configuration stress vector at x and the above stress principle at the point x on the ~t" We call t(x,n) concept the is known as the of Cauchy. , of moment 25 of momentum. If the momentum M(C) of C in the configuration ~t is given by / x dm then the principle of balance of ~t(C ) ~ momentum requires that f(C) = M(C) and implies, under suitable continuity conditions, the existence of a tensor field ~S such that t(~,n) = Ts(x)n for all xs~t(~C); the superposed dot above indicates, respect to time.
