Mathematical Logic and Theoretical Computer Science covers various topics ranging from recursion theory to Zariski topoi. Leading international authorities discuss selected topics in a number of areas, including denotational semanitcs, reccuriosn theoretic aspects fo computer science, model theory and algebra, Automath and automated reasoning, stability theory, topoi and mathematics, and topoi and logic. The most up-to-date review available in its field, Mathematical Logic and Theoretical Computer Science will be of interest to mathematical logicians, computer scientists, algebraists, algebraic geometers, differential geometers, differential topologists, and graduate students in mathematics and computer science.
Introduction to Stable Homotopy Theory
by David Barnes, Constanze Roitzheim
2020 · Cambridge University Press
A comprehensive introduction to stable homotopy theory for beginning graduate students, from motivating phenomena to current research.
Quadratic Forms and Their Applications
by Eva Bayer-Fluckiger, David Lewis, Andrew Ranicki
2000 · American Mathematical Soc.
This volume outlines the proceedings of the conference on "Quadratic Forms and Their Applications" held at University College Dublin. It includes survey articles and research papers ranging from applications in topology and geometry to the algebraic theory of quadratic forms and its history. Various aspects of the use of quadratic forms in algebra, analysis, topology, geometry, and number theory are addressed. Special features include the first published proof of the Conway-Schneeberger Fifteen Theorem on integer-valued quadratic forms and the first English-language biography of Ernst Witt, founder of the theory of quadratic forms.
The Semantics and Proof Theory of the Logic of Bunched Implications
by David J. Pym
2013 · Springer Science & Business Media
This is a monograph about logic. Specifically, it presents the mathe matical theory of the logic of bunched implications, BI: I consider Bl's proof theory, model theory and computation theory. However, the mono graph is also about informatics in a sense which I explain. Specifically, it is about mathematical models of resources and logics for reasoning about resources. I begin with an introduction which presents my (background) view of logic from the point of view of informatics, paying particular attention to three logical topics which have arisen from the development of logic within informatics: • Resources as a basis for semantics; • Proof-search as a basis for reasoning; and • The theory of representation of object-logics in a meta-logic. The ensuing development represents a logical theory which draws upon the mathematical, philosophical and computational aspects of logic. Part I presents the logical theory of propositional BI, together with a computational interpretation. Part II presents a corresponding devel opment for predicate BI. In both parts, I develop proof-, model- and type-theoretic analyses. I also provide semantically-motivated compu tational perspectives, so beginning a mathematical theory of resources. I have not included any analysis, beyond conjecture, of properties such as decidability, finite models, games or complexity. I prefer to leave these matters to other occasions, perhaps in broader contexts.
Arithmetic Algebraic Geometry
by Brian David Conrad
The articles in this volume are expanded versions of lectures delivered at the Graduate Summer School and at the Mentoring Program for Women in Mathematics held at the Institute for Advanced Study/Park City Mathematics Institute. The theme of the program was arithmetic algebraic geometry. The choice of lecture topics was heavily influenced by the recent spectacular work of Wiles on modular elliptic curves and Fermat's Last Theorem. The main emphasis of the articles in the volume is on elliptic curves, Galois representations, and modular forms. One lecture series offers an introduction to these objects. The others discuss selected recent results, current research, and open problems and conjectures. The book would be a suitable text for an advanced graduate topics course in arithmetic algebraic geometry.
The book provides a detailed account of basic coalgebra and Hopf algebra theory with emphasis on Hopf algebras which are pointed, semisimple, quasitriangular, or are of certain other quantum groups. It is intended to be a graduate text as well as a research monograph.
