This nice little book by Volkovyskii et al (translated from Russian) is a collection of exercises, and it covers the central aspects of and themes in complex function theory, elementary geometry, harmonic and analytic functions. It contains graphics and illustrations, and the last third of the book consists of answers and solutions.
Superdiffusions and Positive Solutions of Nonlinear Partial Differential Equations
This book is devoted to the applications of probability theory to the theory of nonlinear partial differential equations. More precisely, it is shown that all positive solutions for a class of nonlinear elliptic equations in a domain are described in terms of their traces on the boundary of the domain.
This little book is offered as the experience of one who has successfully taught many pupils, who knows their capacities and the kind of tasks they are likely to have subsequently to do. It is a serious effort to make this humdrum, ordinary, but very useful subject more useful by speeding up the work without sacrificing accuracy, and as such it deserves the attention of a wide circle of readers, and especially of teachers.
Indeed, Adam has deliberately reworked topics treated in Mathematics in Nature to make them accessible to a larger audience. Beyond insights into specific questions about nature, the general reader will find here a remarkably lucid explanation of how mathematicians create a formulaic model that mimics the key features of some natural phenomenon. Adam particularly highlights the importance in this process of solving inverse problems. Ordinary math becomes adventure.
Encyclopedia of Mathematics is a comprehensive one-volume encyclopedia designed for high school through early college students. More than 1,000 entries, more than 125 photographs and illustrations, and numerous essays cover the principal areas and issues that characterize this "new" area of science. This valuable resource unites disparate ideas and provides the meaning, history, context, and relevance behind each one.
