Generalized Concavity in Fuzzy Optimization and Decision Analysis (International Series in Operations Research & Management Science)

Convexity of units in linear areas, and concavity and convexity of services, lie on the root of lovely theoretical effects that are even as super necessary within the research and resolution of optimization difficulties, together with difficulties of both unmarried target or a number of pursuits. now not all of those effects count unavoidably on convexity and concavity; a number of the effects can ensure that each one neighborhood optimal can also be a world optimal, giving those tools broader software to a much broader classification of difficulties.

Computability and Unsolvability (Dover Books on Computer Science)

During this vintage textual content, Dr. Davis offers a transparent advent to computability, at a sophisticated undergraduate point, that serves the wishes of experts and non-specialists alike. partially One (Chapters 1–5), Professor Davis outlines the overall idea of computability, discussing such subject matters as computable features, operations on computable capabilities, recursive services, Turing machines, self-applied, and unsolvable determination difficulties.

Elements of Automata Theory

Automata idea lies on the starting place of machine technology, and is essential to a theoretical realizing of the way pcs paintings and what constitutes formal equipment. This treatise provides a rigorous account of the subject and illuminates its genuine that means by way of the topic in quite a few methods. the 1st a part of the booklet is organised round notions of rationality and recognisability.

Motivic Integration and its Interactions with Model Theory and Non-Archimedean Geometry: Volume 2 (London Mathematical Society Lecture Note Series)

The advance of Maxim Kontsevich's preliminary rules on motivic integration has by surprise stimulated many different parts of arithmetic, starting from the Langlands application over harmonic research, to non-Archimedean research, singularity thought and birational geometry. This e-book assembles the various theories of motivic integration and their functions for the 1st time, permitting readers to match various techniques and check their person strengths.
