Reaching for the Extreme
From bestselling author and mathematician Ian Stewart, the fascinating story of the extreme problems that have driven math forward from antiquity to today "Stewart has a genius for explanation."--New Scientist Many of the deepest and most important areas of mathematics have emerged from questions about extremes--the shortest path between two points on a curved surface, the smallest area spanning a wire, or the fewest colors needed to make a map. Mathematicians have been pushing restlessly toward extremes for thousands of years. The isoperimetric problem, for example--which asks for the shortest route enclosing a given area--can be traced to ancient Carthage. By contrast, it was only in 2017 that the densest ways to pack identical spheres into a 24-dimensional space was proven. In Reaching for the Extreme, bestselling author Ian Stewart, one of the world's most popular writers on mathematics, presents a dazzling, wide-ranging tour of math's outer limits. Stewart tells the stories of sixteen superlative problems--their history, the struggles to solve them, and the uses of some of the results. From the biggest number to the smallest, the fastest fall to the weirdest symmetry, and the best fold to the shortest proof, these questions are either pure thought experiments or are motivated by real-world challenges. The Plateau problem, about the geometry of soap bubbles, led to the notion of a minimal surface--now used in cosmology, biology, and other fields. Meanwhile, the 2023 discovery of a single tile shape that covers the infinite plane without repeating the same pattern has no application--yet. Reaching for the Extreme illuminates how mathematicians drive knowledge forward by reaching for the edges and solving some of the world's most fascinating problems.

Chaotic Maps, Fractals, and Rapid Fluctuations
This book was developed from lecture notes for an introductory graduate course and provides an essential introduction to chaotic maps in finite-dimensional spaces. Furthermore, the authors show how to apply this theory to infinite-dimensional systems corresponding to partial differential equations to study chaotic vibration of the wave equation subject to various types of nonlinear boundary conditions. The book provides background on chaos as a highly interesting nonlinear phenomenon and explains why it is one of the most important scientific findings of the past three decades. In addition, the book covers key topics including one-dimensional dynamical systems, bifurcations, general topological, symbolic dynamical systems, and fractals. The authors also show a class of infinite-dimensional nonlinear dynamical systems, which are reducible to interval maps, plus rapid fluctuations of chaotic maps. This second edition includes updated and expanded chapters as well as additional problems.

Advances Statistic Inference Process Driven Fraction Process
One of the important problems in studying stochastic phenomena is to develop stochastic models and understand their implications behind the phenomenon. Long range dependence is an important stochastic phenomena and it needs study of special type of stochastic processes for modelling. My earlier book on Statistical Inference for Fractional Diffusion Processes (2010) dealt with several aspects for modelling by fractional Brownian motion. This book will contain my work on parametric and nonparametric inference for processes driven by fractional processes such as fractional Brownian motion, mixed fractional Brownian motion, sub-fractional Brownian motion, alpha-stable noise, fractional Levy process and Gaussian processes.

Increasing Unit Effectiveness in a Dynamic Environment by Implementing a Leadership Mathematical Model
The Ukrainian Army is in a transition period which requires flexible, adaptive leadership with a contemporary vision. The problem of improving unit effectiveness is now very topical, because old leadership does not correspond to modern requirements and does not facilitate rapid development. The lack of understanding the need for a change in a dynamic environment makes a military unit ineffective. To explain the procedure of how to lead subordinates in a dynamic environment and give recommendations for commanders is valuable, because it will adapt the current leadership for modern requirements and make a military unit effective in any operational environment. The purpose of this research is to find an improved leadership model that will significantly increase unit effectiveness in a dynamic environment. This is a model that could be used as the foundation for a change in the leadership culture of the Ukrainian Army. The originality of this work will be its use of mathematical formulas to explain the key leadership methods/ideas proposed within the study.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

A Graduate Course in Probability
This book grew out of the notes for a one-semester basic graduate course in probability. As the title suggests, it is meant to be an introduction to probability and could serve as textbook for a year long text for a basic graduate course. It assumes some familiarity with measure theory and integration so in this book we emphasize only those aspects of measure theory that have special probabilistic uses.The book covers the topics that are part of the culture of an aspiring probabilist and it is guided by the author's personal belief that probability was and is a theory driven by examples. The examples form the main attraction of this subject. For this reason, a large book is devoted to an eclectic collection of examples, from classical to modern, from mainstream to "exotic". The text is complemented by nearly 200 exercises, quite a few nontrivial, but all meant to enhance comprehension and enlarge the reader's horizons.While teaching probability both at undergraduate and graduate level the author discovered the revealing power of simulations. For this reason, the book contains a veiled invitation to the reader to familiarize with the programing language R. In the appendix, there are a few of the most frequently used operations and the text is sprinkled with (less than optimal) R codes. Nowadays one can do on a laptop simulations and computations we could only dream as an undergraduate in the past. This is a book written by a probability outsider. That brings along a bit of freshness together with certain "naiveties".
Noncommutative Measures and LP and Orlicz Spaces, with Applications to Quantum Physics
The theory of noncommutative Haagerup ����sup����/sup and Orlicz spaces is an important tool in both Quantum Harmonic Analysis and Mathematical Physics. Indeed, noncommutativity is arguably the raison-d'礙tre of the Heisenberg approach to quantum mechanics. Just as classical analysis formed the foundation for classical mechanics, a mature response to the challenges posed by quantum mechanics (from the Heisenberg perspective) similarly needs to be built on a well-developed foundation of noncommutative analysis. In the passage from the classical to the quantum setting, functions get replaced with (possibly noncommuting) operators. Von Neumann himself realised early on that some sort of noncommutative integral calculus tailored to this setting is therefore needed to meet this challenge. This book seeks to help address this need. The noncommutative Orlicz spaces presented here help in dealing with observable quantities and entropy. Goldstein and Labuschagne provide a detailed account of the current theories in a way that is useful and accessible to a wide range of readers, from graduate students to advanced users. Beginning with some foundational examples intended to build intuition for the theory to follow, including the theory of noncommutative decreasing arrangements, as developed by Fack and Kosaki, and of Orlicz spaces for general von Neumann algebras. The authors then present the theory of the more accessible tracial case, followed by that of the more demanding general (type III) case. The final part of the book is devoted to advanced theory and applications.

Empowering Young Minds
Many metaheuristics are inspired by natural intelligence, particularly in how living species adapt and collaborate for survival. Swarm intelligence-based algorithms mimic the collective behaviour of animals and insects, and this book explores four such algorithms: Cat Swarm, Chicken Swarm, Bird Swarm, and Elephant Search. The authors have created engaging games to help children understand these algorithms through hands-on activities. With this interactive experience, the authors hope children can learn creative problem-solving skills while enjoying the amazing strategies that living creatures use in nature.
