Books in the Texts and Readings in Mathematics series

Combines the spirit of a textbook and of a monograph on the topic of Semigroups and their applications. It is expected to have potential users across a broad spectrum including operator theory, partial differential equations, harmonic analysis, probability and statistics and classical and quantum mechanics.

Aims to convey 3 principal developments in the evolution of information theory, including Shannon's interpretation of Boltzmann entropy as a measure of information yielded by an elementary statistical experiment and basic coding theorems on storing messages and transmitting them through noisy communication channels in an optimal manner.

The material presented in this book is suited for a first course in Functional Analysis which can be followed by Masters students. The book includes a chapter on compact operators and the spectral theory for compact self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space.

Including Affine and projective classification of Conics, 2 point homogeneity's of the planes, essential isometrics, non euclidean plan geometrics, in this book, the treatment of Geometry goes beyond the Kleinian views.

Several generations of students of algebraic geometry have learned the subject from David Mumford's fabled "Red Book" containing notes of his lectures at Harvard University. This book contains what Mumford had intended to be Volume II. It covers the material in the "Red Book" in more depth with several more topics added.

Treats some basic topics in the spectral theory of dynamical systems. The treatment is at a general level, but two more advanced theorems, one by H. Helson and W. Parry and the other by B. Host, are presented. Moreover, Ornstein's family of mixing rank one automorphisms is described with construction and proof.

Provides an understanding of the various aspects of dynamical systems. Each chapter of the book specializes in one aspect of dynamical systems, and, thus, begins at an elementary level and goes on to cover advanced material.

This book discusses basic topics in the spectral theory of dynamical systems. Lastly, the second edition includes a new chapter "Calculus of Generalized Riesz Products", which discusses the recent work connecting generalized Riesz products, Hardy classes, Banach's problem of simple Lebesgue spectrum in ergodic theory and flat polynomials.
