| Title | Waves and Imaging through Complex Media |
| Author(s) | Sebbah, P |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2001. |
| Description | X, 460 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Recent advances in wave propagation in random media are certainly consequences of new approaches to fundamental issues, as well as of a strong interest in potential applications. A collective effort has been made to present in this book the state of the art in fundamental concepts, as well as in biomedical imaging techniques. As an example, the recent introduction of wave chaos, and more specifically random matrix theory - an old tool from nuclear physics - to the study of multiple scattering, has pointed the way to a deeper understanding of wave coherence in complex media. At the same time, efficient new approaches for retrieving information from random media promise to allow wave imaging of small tumors in opaque tissues. Review chapters are written by experts in the field, with the aim of making the book accessible to the widest possible scientific audience: graduate students and research scientists in theoretical and applied physics, optics, acoustics, and biomedical physics |

| Title | Properties of Complex Inorganic Solids 2 |
| Author(s) | Meike, Annemarie;Gonis, A;Turchi, Patrice E.A;Rajan, Krishna |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer US, 2000. |
| Description | XI, 527 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The triennial International Alloy Conferences (lACs) aim at the identification and promotion of the common elements developed in the study, either experimental, phenomenological, or theoretical and computational, of materials properties across materials types, from metals to minerals. To accomplish this goal, the lACs bring together scientists from a wide spectrum of materials science including experiment, theory, modeling, and computation, incorporating a broad range of materials properties. The first lAC, lAC-I, took place in Athens, Greece, June 16-21, 1996. The present volume of proceedings contains the papers presented at IAC-2, that took place in Davos, Switzerland, August 8-13, 1999. The topics in this book fall into several themes, which suggest a number of different classification schemes. We have chosen a scheme that classifies the papers in the volume into the categories Microstructural Properties; Ordering, Kinetics and Diffusion; Magnetic Properties and Elastic Properties. We have juxtaposed apparently disparate of revealing the dynamic character approaches to similar physical processes, in the hope of the processes under consideration. We hope this will invigorate new kinds of discussion and reveal challenges and new avenues to the description and prediction of properties of materials in the solid state and the conditions that produce them |

| Title | Dynamical Systems and Cosmology |
| Author(s) | Coley, A.A |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2003. |
| Description | VIII, 195 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Dynamical systems theory is especially well-suited for determining the possible asymptotic states (at both early and late times) of cosmological models, particularly when the governing equations are a finite system of autonomous ordinary differential equations. In this book we discuss cosmological models as dynamical systems, with particular emphasis on applications in the early Universe. We point out the important role of self-similar models. We review the asymptotic properties of spatially homogeneous perfect fluid models in general relativity. We then discuss results concerning scalar field models with an exponential potential (both with and without barotropic matter). Finally, we discuss the dynamical properties of cosmological models derived from the string effective action. This book is a valuable source for all graduate students and professional astronomers who are interested in modern developments in cosmology |

| Title | M-Theory and Quantum Geometry |
| Author(s) | Thorlacius, L??rus;Jonsson, Thordur |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2000. |
| Description | XVIII, 454 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The fundamental structure of matter and spacetime at the shortest length scales remains an exciting frontier of basic research in theoretical physics. A unifying theme in this area is the quantization of geometrical objects. The majority of lectures at the Advanced Study Institute on Quantum Ge?? ometry in Akureyri was on recent advances in superstring theory, which is the leading candidate for a unified description of all known elementary par?? ticles and interactions. The geometric concept of one-dimensional extended objects, or strings, has always been at the core of superstring theory but in recent years the focus has shifted to include also higher-dimensional ob?? jects, so called D-branes, which play a key role in the non-perturbative dynamics of the theory. A related development has seen the strong coupling regime of a given string theory identified with the weak coupling regime of what was previ?? ously believed to be a different theory, and a web of such" dualities" that interrelates all known superstring theories has emerged. The resulting uni?? fied theoretical framework, termed M-theory, has evolved at a rapid pace in recent years |

| Title | Non-Smooth Thermomechanics |
| Author(s) | Fremond, Michel |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | XVI, 480 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Based on practical problems in mechanical engineering, the author develops in this book the fundamental concepts of non-smooth thermomechanics and introduces the necessary background material needed to deal with mechanics involving discontinuities and non-smooth constraints. From this point, powerful methods for the applied mathematician and the mechanical engineer are derived, and applied to numerous cases including collisions of deformable and non-deformable solids, shape memory alloys, damage of materials, soil freezing, supercooling and solid--liquid phase changes, to name but a few. This book will be of great value to both the researcher and practitioner, but it can also be used as an advanced text for students in civil and mechanical engineering |

| Title | Noise, Oscillators and Algebraic Randomness : From Noise in Communication Systems to Number Theory |
| Author(s) | Planat, Michel |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2000. |
| Description | VIII, 418 p. 131 illus., 3 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Noise is ubiquitous in nature and in man-made systems. Noise in oscillators perturbs high-technology devices such as time standards or digital communication systems. The understanding of its algebraic structure is thus of vital importance. The book addresses both the measurement methods and the understanding of quantum, 1/f and phase noise in systems such as electronic amplifiers, oscillators and receivers, trapped ions, cosmic ray showers and in commercial applications. A strong link between 1/f noise and number theory is emphasized. The twenty papers in the book are comprehensive versions of talks presented at a School in Chapelle des Bois (Jura, France) held from April 6 to 10, 1999 by engineers, physisicts and mathematicians |

| Title | Nonlinear PDE???s in Condensed Matter and Reactive Flows |
| Author(s) | Berestycki, Henri;Pomeau, Yves |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2002. |
| Description | XI, 526 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Nonlinear partial differential equations abound in modern physics. The problems arising in these fields lead to fascinating questions and, at the same time, progress in understanding the mathematical structures is of great importance to the models. Nevertheless, activity in one of the approaches is not always sufficiently in touch with developments in the other field. The book presents the joint efforts of mathematicians and physicists involved in modelling reactive flows, in particular superconductivity and superfluidity. Certain contributions are fundamental to an understanding of such cutting-edge research topics as rotating Bose-Einstein condensates, Kolmogorov-Zakharov solutions for weak turbulence equations, and the propagation of fronts in heterogeneous media |

| Title | From Cells to Societies : Models of Complex Coherent Action |
| Author(s) | Mikhailov, Alexander S;Calenbuhr, Vera |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2002. |
| Description | X, 302 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book shows how, by rather simple models, we can gain remarkable insights into the behavior of complex systems. It is devoted to the discussion of functional self-organization in large populations of interacting active elements. The possible forms of self-organization in such systems range from coherent collective motions in the physical coordinate space to the mutual synchronization of internal dynamics, the development of coherently operating groups, the rise of hierarchical structures, and the emergence of dynamical networks. Such processes play an important role in biological and social phenomena. The authors have chosen a series of models from physics, biochemistry, biology, sociology and economics, and will systematically discuss their general properties. The book addresses researchers and graduate students in a variety of disciplines, such as physics, chemistry, biology and the social sciences |

| Title | Current Research in Operational Quantum Logic : Algebras, Categories, Languages |
| Author(s) | Coecke, Bob;Moore, David;Wilce, Alexander |
| Publication | Dordrecht, Springer Netherlands, 2000. |
| Description | VII, 325 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The present volume has its origins in a pair of informal workshops held at the Free University of Brussels, in June of 1998 and May of 1999, named "Current Research 1 in Operational Quantum Logic". These brought together mathematicians and physicists working in operational quantum logic and related areas, as well as a number of interested philosophers of science, for a rare opportunity to discuss recent developments in this field. After some discussion, it was decided that, rather than producing a volume of conference proceedings, we would try to organize the conferees to produce a set of comprehensive survey papers, which would not only report on recent developments in quantum logic, but also provide a tutorial overview of the subject suitable for an interested non-specialist audience. The resulting volume provides an overview of the concepts and methods used in current research in quantum logic, viewed both as a branch of mathemati?? cal physics and as an area of pure mathematics. The first half of the book is concerned with the algebraic side of the subject, and in particular the theory of orthomodular lattices and posets, effect algebras, etc. In the second half of the book, special attention is given to categorical methods and to connections with theoretical computer science. At the 1999 workshop, we were fortunate to hear three excellent lectures by David J. Foulis, represented here by two contributions. Dave's work, spanning 40 years, has helped to define, and continues to reshape, the field of quantum logic |
