Minor wear. VG. Mathematics ONE HUNDRED AND SEVEN [107] ITEMS. Weighs 5.3 kilos. This is a collection of 107 offprints and extracts all authored or co- authored by the Italian-born mathematician Lamberti Cesaro. Several are xerographic copies. [".,.,Cesari was an Italian mathematician naturalized in the United States, known for his work on the theory of surface area, the theory of functions of bounded variation, the theory of optimal control and on the stability theory of dynamical systems: in particular, by extending the concept of Tonelli plane variation, he succeeded in introducing the class of functions of bounded variation of several variables in its full generality..,.,.He is remembered for his achievements on the Plateau's problem, on the theory of parametric minimal surfaces, on Lebesgue measure of continuous and related other variational problems: he also worked in the field of optimal control and studied periodic solutions of systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by using methods of nonlinear functional analysis. In the paper (Cesari 1936) he introduced a generalization of functions of bounded variation to the multi-dimensional setting, now acknowledged as the most versatile of such generaizations. He wrote about 250 scientific works on topics such as non linear functional analysis, measure theory, optimal control" - wikipedia]., 3, Washington, D.C.: Mathematical Association of America, 1984. Classic text contains detailed papers by leading mathematicians on numerical analysis. Topics include: Newton's method; research directions in sparse matrix computations; questions of numerical conditions related to polynomials; a generalized conjugate gradient method for the numerical solution of elliptical partial differential equations; multigrid methods for partial differential equations; fast Poisson solvers; Poisson's equation in a hypercube: discrete Fourier methods, eigenfunction expansions, Pade approximation to eigenvalues; etc. 415 pgs. Illustrated. Small prior owner's stamp and notation on endpapers and lower copyright pg. Minimal shelfwear.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/ . 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Ex-Technical Library., Mathematical Association of America, 1984, 3, Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 1998. This volume opens in spring 1914 when Einstein takes up a research professorship at the Prussian Academy of Sciences in Berlin and closes with the collapse of the German Empire four and one-half years later. A good portion of the documentation, which comprises more than 675 letters, has only recently been discovered by the editors. The letters touch on all aspects of Einstein's activities and shed new light on his inner life, including the breakup of Einstein's first marriage and the divorce are presented here for the first time in all their complexity. New material shows Einstein maintaining a strong sense of moral urgency throughout the war. The scientific correspondence documents Einstein's struggle to find satisfactory field equations for his new gravitational theory--the general theory of relativity--and his continued discussion with leading physicists and mathematicians about the implications and further development of the theory. 714 pgs.
