Computable Structure Theory
This is the first book which gives a unified theory for countable and uncountable computable structures. The work treats computable linear orderings, graphs, groups and Boolean algebras unified with computable metric and Banach spaces, profinite groups, and the like. Further, it provides the first account of these that exploits effective versions of dualities, such as Stone and Pontryagin dualities. The themes are effective classification and enumeration. Topics and features: - - - - - This unique volume is aimed at graduate students and researchers in computability theory, as well as mathematicians seeking to understand the algorithmic content of structure theory. Being self-contained, it provides ample opportunity for self-study.

IMU, ICM, Medals, Prizes, and Laureates
The book begins with the formal establishment of the International Mathematical Union (IMU) and its purpose of promoting international cooperation in mathematics by supporting and assisting the international Congress of Mathematicians (ICM) every four years. The book presents the most important features of each ICM (from 1897 to 2022) including the history of various medals and awards, particularly the Fields Medal, which is regarded as one of the highest honors a mathematician can receive and has been described as the Nobel Prize of mathematics. For each Laureate, the book provides their family background, a short description of the work that led to the award, a history of academic jobs, research conducted after receiving the award, and a list of further honors and awards. This book will stimulate all mathematicians, especially students who think that mathematics is less rewarding compared to other disciplines.

Collective Principles and the Formation of the Internet
This book describes how distinctive socio-political commitments and cultural practices developed upon the internet in the later 20th and early 21st century and considers what lies ahead in those terms. Five decades after the internet's technological structure began to be erected, and three decades after engagement with it started burgeoning, an active and global collective formation has grown upon it. This collective formation is dubbed the 'Internet Polity' here and is distinguishable from, and yet embedded within, real-world collectives. Despite divergences and conflicts, its organization is based on certain shared principles and its culture characterized by distinctive discursive practices. This book examines how the Internet Polity developed until 2010, in terms of the technological and cultural features that have supported it. Accordingly, the Internet Polity's emerging prospects are considered. Topics and features: Gives an original framework for understanding the global collective grounded on the internet as a social space Presents a history of the technological basis and communication features of this collective, from the beginnings to 2010 Offers an interdisciplinary perspective that cuts across most disciplines of the humanities and social sciences Describes the histories of and debates surrounding popular terms like 'cyberspace, ' 'information superhighway, ' 'Internet of Things, ' 'hacker, ' etc. This wide-ranging and original book is for researchers, graduate students, professionals and informed readers who are interested in information technology and political culture, digital humanities, sociolinguistics and communication studies, history of the internet, contemporary social organization and political philosophy.
