Product Description
Atle Selberg is renowned for his profound work in Number Theory and other branches of mathematics, highlighted, perhaps, by his powerful trace formula. He is also known for the important lectures and papers that he has never published. With Volume II of Selberg's Collected Papers, these unpublished works become widely available for the first time. This collection will fill a long-standing gap in the literature. ... Read more

Excerpt: Sir Michael Francis Atiyah, OM, FRS, FRSE (born 22 April 1929) is a British mathematician, and one of the most influential mathematicians of the twentieth century. He grew up in Sudan and Egypt, and spent most of his academic life at Oxford, Cambridge, and the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. He has been President of the Royal Society (19901995), Master of Trinity College, Cambridge (19901997), Chancellor of the University of Leicester (19952005), and President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (20052008). He is currently retired and an honorary professor at the University of Edinburgh.

Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Niels Henrik Abel (né le 5 août 1802 à Frindoë près de Stavanger et mort le 6 avril 1829 à Christiania, aujourd'hui Oslo) est un mathématicien norvégien. Il est connu pour ses travaux en analyse mathématique sur la semi-convergence des séries numériques, des suites et séries de fonctions, les critères de convergence d'intégrale généralisée, sur la notion d'intégrale elliptique ; en algèbre, sur la résolution des équations. Abel, cadet d'une famille de sept enfants, passa ses premières années dans un pays frappé par la famine du fait du blocus continental, Napoléon ayant contraint les couronnes de Norvège et de Danemark à rejoindre sa coalition contre l'Angleterre. Son père, Sören Georg Abel, éduqua lui-même ses deux fils aînés jusqu'en 1815, puis les envoya au collège paroissial d'Oslo. Dans ce lycée, le latin, le grec et la religion étaient enseignés à l'ancienne, avec punitions et châtiments corporels. La situation évolua en 1817 à la suite du renvoi d'un professeur consécutif au décès d'un élève : le lycée recruta un jeune enseignant ouvert aux idées nouvelles et instruit de mathématiques, Bernt Michael Holmboe. Holmboë enseignait la mécanique céleste d'après Newton et Lalande. Découvrant l'intérêt de Niels Henrik pour les mathématiques, il lui obtint une bourse pour étudier à l'université (1820). Abel fréquenta cet établissement jusqu'en 1823. À la fin de cette année-là, il démontra que l'équation quelconque de degré cinq n'est pas résoluble à partir de combinaisons de racines des coefficients. Ces travaux suffirent à convaincre les...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Excerpt: Vidkun Abraham Lauritz Jonssøn Quisling (July 18, 1887 October 24, 1945) was the most notorious traitor in Norwegian history. He was a fascist army officer and politician. He worked with Fridtjof Nansen during the famine in the Soviet Union, and served as Minister of Defence in the Bondepartiet government 19311933. In 1933 he founded the nationalist party Nasjonal Samling ("National Gathering"), and during World War II, from 1942 to 1945, he served as Minister-President of the collaborationist Norwegian government, after being appointed by the German authorities. After the war he was tried for high treason and executed by firing squad. Today in Norway and other parts of the world, "Quisling" is a synonym for "Traitor". Quisling was the son of a Church of Norway pastor and genealogist, Jon Lauritz Quisling, who preferred to be called "Qvisling", from Fyresdal. Other ancient names of the family were "Quislinus" or "Quislin". Both of his parents belonged to old and distinguished families of Telemark. Quisling had a flair for mathematics, and in his early teens had sent in corrections to a nat...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=32429 ... Read more

Excerpt: Niels Henrik Abel (5 August 1802 - 6 April 1829) was a noted Norwegian mathematician who proved the impossibility of solving the quintic equation in radicals. Postcard of Gjerstad church and rectory in 1890-95. The main building of the rectory was the same as when Abel lived here. Niels Henrik Abel was born in Nedstrand, Norway, as second child to Søren Georg Abel and Anne Marie Simonsen. When he was born, the family was living at the rectory at Finnøy. Much suggests that Niels Henrik was born in the neighboring parish, as his parents were guests of the bailiff in Nedstrand in July / August of his year of birth. Niels Henrik Abel's father, Søren Georg Abel, had a degree in theology and philosophy and served as pastor at Finnøy. Søren's father, Niels's grandfather, Hans Mathias Abel, was also a pastor, at Gjerstad near Risør. Søren had spent his childhood at Gjerstad, and had also served as chaplain there; and after his father's death in 1804, Søren was appointed pastor at Gjerstad and the family moved there. Anne Marie Simonsen was from Risør; her father, Niels Henrik Saxild Simonsen, was a tradesman and...http://booksllc.net/?id=21573 ... Read more

Product Description

 From the Foreword by K. Chandrasekharan: The early work of Atle Selberg lies in the fields of analysis and number theory. It concerns the Riemann zeta-function, Dirichlet's L-functions, the Fourier coefficients of modular forms, the distribution of prime numbers, and the general sieve method. It is brilliant, and unsurpassed, and in the finest classical tradition. His later work cuts across many fields: function theory, operator theory, spectral theory, group theory, topology, differential geometry, and number theory. It has enlarged and transfigured the whole concept and structure of arithmetic. It exemplifies the modern tradition at its sprightly best, and makes him one of the master mathematicians of our time. This outstanding publication will enable the reader to perceive the depth and originality of Atle Selberg's ideas and results, and sense the scale and intensity of their influence on contemporary mathematical thought.
