With hundreds of worked examples, exercises and illustrations, this detailed exposition of the theory of Vassiliev knot invariants opens the field to students with little or no knowledge in this area.

Covering small and large deformation behavior of solids and structures, this reference deals with the analysis and modelling of structures from large civil engineering projects such as dams, to ...

Freudenburg's papers include: Examples of such actions when the ring of invariants is not finitely generated, in both the linear and non-linear cases (Hilbert's 14th Problem). Exponential ...

A new research study from Opto-Electronic Advances discusses tailoring electron vortex beams with customizable intensity ...

Les facteurs invariants, définis à inversibles de près, caractérisent en fait les classes pour la relation d'équivalence moins précise si et seulement s'il existe telles que A = TBU. Pour trouver les ...

then everyone would have belonged to the same social class because topology is concerned with classifying properties — so-called topological invariants — that do not change when objects are ...

Eight current and former Kansas State University students were selected for National Science Foundation Graduate Research ...

Categories with similar properties and a more explicit flavour can be defined using representations of quivers. Other closely related mathematical areas I have an interest in are Donaldson-Thomas ...

and guaranteeing that C2 preserves invariants about the relative ordering of memory accesses, safepoints, and barriers. Another goal is preserving the quality of C2-generated code in terms of ...

Any bug in the software (either inadvertent or intentional) could invalidate the invariants of the DLT, e.g., breaking immutability. If there is ambiguity in the DLT’s specification, two independently ...

Her research is in geometric and low-dimensional topology. A main theme of her work is using algebraic invariants to detect information about intersections and linking of topological objects. In ...
