Special attention is focused on mutrition, infection and disease prevention, and diagnostic techniques as primary ways to prevent and treat health problems.
The study of 3-dimensional spaces brings together elements from several areas of mathematics. The most notable are topology and geometry, but elements of number theory and analysis also make appearances. In the past 30 years, there have been striking developments in the mathematics of 3-dimensional manifolds. This book aims to introduce undergraduate students to some of these important developments. Low-Dimensional Geometry starts at a relatively elementary level, and its early chapters can be used as a brief introduction to hyperbolic geometry.
The author has provided a shop window for some of the ideas, techniques and elegant results of Fourier analysis, and for their applications. These range from number theory, numerical analysis, control theory and statistics, to earth science, astronomy, and electrical engineering.
Aquaculture and Fisheries Biotechnology: Genetic Approaches
The genetic improvement of fish for aquaculture and related fisheries is a field of research that has seen immense advances in recent years. Yet there is no book which provides an accessible overview of the subject. This book aims to fill this gap and will be suitable for advanced students and researchers in animal genetics, fish biology and aquaculture.
College algebra has a basic unity. It should consist of, study of the number systems of elementary mathematics, olynomials and allied functions, algebraic identities, equaions, and systems of equations. The unity of the present ext is achieved by fitting the standard topics of college algebra into this pattern...
