Free Download Henri Poincare, J. Stillwell, "Papers on Fuchsian Functions"

by John Stillwell I. General Reaarb, Poincare’s papers on Fuchsian and Kleinian I1’OUps are of Il’eat interest from at least two points of view: history, of course, but also as an inspiration for further mathematical proll’ess. The papers are historic as the climax of the ceometric theory of functions initiated by Riemann, and ideal representatives of the unity between analysis, ceometry, topololY and alcebra which prevailed during the 1880’s. The rapid mathematical prOll’ess of the 20th century has been made at the expense of unity and historical perspective, and if mathematics is not to disintell’ate altogether, an effort must sometime be made to find its, main threads and weave them tocether 81ain. Poincare’s work is an excellent example of this process, and may yet prove to be at the core of a . new synthesis. Certainly, we are now able to gather up, some of the loose ends in Poincare, and a broader synthesis seems to be actually taking place in the work of Thurston. The papers I have selected include the three Il’eat memoirs in the first volumes of Acta Math. -tice, on- Fuchsian groups, Fuchsian, functions, and Kleinian groups (Poincare [1882 a, b,1883]). These are the papers which made his reputation and they include many results and proofs which are now standard. They are preceded by an, unedited memoir written by Poincare in May 1880 at the height of his, creative ferment.

Collected Papers of John Milnor, IV Homotopy, Homology and Manifolds


Free Download John W. Milnor, John McCleary, "Collected Papers of John Milnor, IV: Homotopy, Homology and Manifolds"
English | 2009 | ISBN: 082184475X | DJVU | pages: 368 | 6.2 mb
The development of algebraic topology in the 1950’s and 1960’s was deeply influenced by the work of Milnor. In this collection of papers the reader finds those original papers and some previously unpublished works. The book is divided into four parts: Homotopy Theory, Homology and Cohomology, Manifolds, and Expository Papers. Introductions to each part provide some historical context and subsequent development. Of particular interest are the articles on classifying spaces, the Steenrod algebra, the introductory notes on foliations and the surveys of work on the Poincare conjecture. Together with the previously published volumes I-III of the Collected Works by John Milnor, volume IV provides a rich portion of the most important developments in geometry and topology from those decades. This volume is highly recommended to a broad mathematical audience, and, in particular, to young mathematicians who will certainly benefit from their acquaintance with Milnor’s mode of thinking and writing.

Collected Papers of John Milnor, II The Fundamental Group


Free Download John Milnor, "Collected Papers of John Milnor, II: The Fundamental Group"
English | 2009 | ISBN: 0821848755 | DJVU | pages: 302 | 3.9 mb
This volume contains papers of one of the best modern geometers and topologists, John Milnor, on various topics related to the notion of the fundamental group. The volume contains sixteen papers divided into four parts: Knot theory, Free actions on spheres, Torsion, and Three-dimensional manifolds. Each part is preceded by an introduction containing the author’s comments on further development of the subject. Although some of the papers were written quite a while ago, they appear more modern than many of today’s publications. Milnor’s excellent, clear, and laconic style makes the book a real treat. This volume is highly recommended to a broad mathematical audience, and, in particular, to young mathematicians who will certainly benefit from their acquaintance with Milnor’s mode of thinking and writing.

Collected Papers of John Milnor V. Algebra


Free Download Hyman Bass, T. Y. Lam, "Collected Papers of John Milnor: V. Algebra"
English | 2010 | ISBN: 0821848763 | DJVU | pages: 425 | 6.0 mb
In addition to his seminal work in topology, John Milnor is also an accomplished algebraist, producing a spectacular agenda-setting body of work related to algebraic $K$-theory and quadratic forms during the five year period 1965-1970. These papers, together with other (some of them previously unpublished) works in algebra are assembled here in this fifth volume of Milnor’s Collected Papers. They constitute not only an important historical archive, but also, thanks to the clarity and elegance of Milnor’s mathematical exposition, a valuable resource for work in the fields treated. In addition, Milnor’s papers are complemented by detailed surveys on the current state of the field in two areas. One is on the congruence subgroup problem, by Gopal Prasad and Andrei Rapinchuk. The other is on algebraic $K$-theory and quadratic forms, by Alexander Merkurjev.

Psychologies of Mind The Collected Papers of John Maze


Free Download Rachael Henry, "Psychologies of Mind: The Collected Papers of John Maze"
English | 2012 | pages: 385 | ISBN: 144118161X, 0826435513 | PDF | 1,0 mb
John Maze was a giant among philosophers of psychology.Thisexciting, newcollection of his published work demonstrates that what is seemingly new in psychology is so often not new at all but frequently consists of ill-informed corruptions of earlier, discarded, misguided attempts. Their collection together is timely in the current, innovatory era of cross-disciplinary exploration and integration on the borderlands of psychology and philosophy, where there is a visible danger that the welcome loosening of barriers to mutual communication also generates some ‘wild’ theorizing, familiar enough in the history of psychology itself. A corpus remarkable for its coherence, intellectual virtuosity and radicalism over 50 years, it speaks meaningfully to the wide range of psychological theory throughout its history up to the present day. Written with elegance and eloquence, the essays entail a thoroughgoing critical analysis of the most detrimental philosophical erroers of academic psychology in the 20th century, the relegation to history by the 20th century academy of some of the conceptually most promising lines of research, the cost that has been borne by the discipline of psychology, and the most promising future direction for the discipline.

English | ASIN: B0BS1P95KX | 2023 | 9 hours and 53 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 284 MB
Author: Joshua Schimel
Narrator: Lane Hakel

As a scientist, you are a professional writer: your career is built on successful proposals and papers. Success isn’t defined by getting papers into print, but by getting them into the reader’s consciousness. Writing Science is built upon the idea that successful science writing tells a story. It uses that insight to discuss how to write more effectively. Integrating lessons from other genres of writing with those from author Joshua Schimel’s years of experience as author, reviewer, and editor, this book shows scientists and students how to present their research in a way that is clear and that will maximize reader comprehension.
