A ComputationalIntroduction to NumberTheory and AlgebraVictor ShoupNew York University, NY

Number theory and algebra play anincreasingly significant role in computingand communications, as evidenced by thestriking applications of these subjects tosuch fields as cryptography and codingtheory. This introductory book emphasisesalgorithms and applications, and isaccessible to a broad audience.The mathematical prerequisites areminimal: nothing beyond material in atypical undergraduate course in calculusis presumed, other than some experiencein doing proofs - everything else isdeveloped from scratch. Thus the bookcan serve several purposes. It can beused as a reference and for self-studyby readers who want to learn themathematical foundations of moderncryptography. It is also ideal as a textbookfor introductory courses in number theoryand algebra, especially those gearedtowards computer science students.Contents:0. Preliminaries; 1.

Algebraic Statistics forComputational BiologyEditors Lior PachterUniversity of California, BerkeleyBernd SturmfelsUniversity of California, Berkeley

The quantitative analysis of biologicalsequence data is based on methods fromstatistics coupled with efficient algorithmsfrom computer science. Algebra providesa framework for unifying many of theseemingly disparate techniques used bycomputational biologists. This book offersan introduction to this mathematicalframework and describes tools fromcomputational algebra for designing newalgorithms for exact, accurate results.These algorithms can be applied tobiological problems such as aligninggenomes, finding genes and constructingphylogenies. As the first book in theexciting and dynamic area, it will bewelcomed as a text for self-study or foradvanced undergraduate and beginninggraduate courses.Contents and Contributors:Preface; Part I.

Playfair’s Commercialand Political Atlas andStatistical BreviaryWilliam PlayfairIntroduced and annotated byHoward WainerIan Spence“From the mind and hand of Playfairsprung - virtually fully formed - theprototypes for most of the statisticalgraphics in use today. There is nobetter place to start than at thebeginning, and this is the book thatlets us see what Playfair was trying todo - and to appreciate just how wellhe accomplished his goals. No studentof information graphics should bewithout this book.”—Stephen M. Kosslyn, Harvard University

A scientific revolution began at the endof the 18th century with the creation andpopularization of the graphic display ofdata by Scottish inventor William Playfair,who introduced the line graph, bar chart,and pie chart into statistics. Hisremarkable Atlas demonstrated howmuch could be learned if one plotted datagraphically and looked for suggestivepatterns to provide evidence for pursuingresearch. In the Statistical Breviary,Playfair invented the pie chart andexpanded upon this concept to facilitatethe comparison of the resources ofEuropean countries. Playfair’s work hasgreat relevance to contemporary science,but finding copies of his original versionsis very difficult. This re-issuance of two ofhis classic works, with new explanatorymaterial, allows access to his wisdom forthe first time in two centuries. In full colorexactly as Playfair hand-colored theoriginal, this volume includes exactduplicates of the third edition of hisclassic Atlas as well as the StatisticalBreviary. An additional feature is theinclusion of annotations and an extensivebiography of the remarkable inventor.2005/248 pp./31 color illustrations85554-3/Hb/List: $39.99Disc.: $31.99

Foreword byPeter J. CameronThe rapidly expanding area of algebraicgraph theory uses two different branchesof algebra to explore various aspects ofgraph theory: linear algebra (for spectraltheory) and group theory (for studyinggraph symmetry). These areas have linkswith other areas of mathematics, suchas logic and harmonic analysis, and areincreasingly being used in such areas ascomputer networks where symmetry isan important feature. Other books coverportions of this material, but this book isunusual in covering both of these aspects.Contents and Contributors:Foreword Peter J. Cameron; Introduction;1.

Poincaré DualityAlgebras, Macaulay’sDual Systems, andSteenrod OperationsDagmar MeyerGeorg-August-Universität, Göttingen, GermanyLarry SmithGeorg-August-Universität, Göttingen, Germany

Poincaré duality algebras originated in thework of topologists on the cohomology ofclosed manifolds, and Macaulay's dualsystems in the study of irreducible idealsin polynomial algebras. These two ideasare tied together using basic commutativealgebra involving Gorenstein algebras.Steenrod operations also originated inalgebraic topology, but may best beviewed as a means of encoding theinformation often hidden behind the

Concrete AbstractAlgebraFrom Numbers to Gröbner BasesNiels LauritzenAarhus Universitet, Denmark

Concrete Abstract Algebra develops thetheory of abstract algebra from numbersto Gröbner bases, while taking in all theusual material of a traditional introductorycourse. In addition, there is a rich supplyof topics such as cryptography, factoringalgorithms for integers, quadratic residues,finite fields, factoring algorithms forpolynomials, and systems of non-linearequations. A special feature is thatGröbner bases do not appear as anisolated example. They are fully integratedas a subject that can be successfullytaught in an undergraduate context.Contents:1. Numbers; 2.

An Introduction toSieve Methods andtheir ApplicationsAlina Carmen CojocaruPrinceton University, NJM. Ram MurtyQueen’s University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Sieve theory has a rich and romantichistory. The ancient question of whetherthere exist infinitely many twin primes(primes p such that p+2 is also prime),and Goldbach’s conjecture that every evennumber can be written as the sum of twoprime numbers, are two of the problemsthat have inspired the development of the

theory. This book provides a motivatingintroduction to sieve theory. Ratherthan focus on technical details whichcan obscure the beauty of the theory,the authors focus on examples andapplications, developing the theory inparallel. The text can be used for a seniorlevel undergraduate course or anintroductory graduate course in analyticnumber theory.Contents:1. Some basic notions; 2. Some elementary sieves;3.

Introduction toCircle PackingThe Theory of DiscreteAnalytic FunctionsKenneth StephensonUniversity of Tennessee, Knoxville

The topic of ‘circle packing’ was born ofthe computer age but takes its inspirationand themes from core areas of classicalmathematics. A circle packing is aconfiguration of circles having a specifiedpattern of tangencies, as introduced byWilliam Thurston in 1985. This book laysout their study, from first definitions tolatest theory, computations, andapplications. The topic can be enjoyed forthe visual appeal of the packing images -over 200 in the book and the eleganceof circle geometry, for the clean line oftheory, for the deep connections toclassical topics, or for the emergingapplications.Contents:Part I.

The Direct Method inSoliton TheoryRyogo HirotaWaseda University, Tokyo, Japan

Editors Jon NimmoUniversity of Glasgow, Scotland, UKClaire GilsonUniversity of Glasgow

Translated byAtsushi NagaiOsaka University, Japan

The bilinear, or Hirota’s direct method,was invented in the early 1970s as anelementary means of constructing solitonsolutions that avoided the use of thecomplex calculations of the inversescattering transform. This analysis isessentially concerned with the moremodern version of the method. Stillmaintaining the original philosophy ofusing relatively simple mathematics, themethod has, nevertheless, been influencedby the work of the Kyoto school, and willbe essential for all working in solitontheory.Contents:Preface; Foreword; 1.

Applied OptimizationFormulation and Algorithms forEngineering SystemsRoss BaldickUniversity of Texas, Austin

The starting point in the formulation ofany numerical problem is to take anintuitive idea about the problem inquestion and to translate it into precisemathematical language. This bookprovides step-by-step descriptions of howto formulate numerical problems so thatthey can be solved by existing software. Itexamines various types of numericalproblems and develops techniques forsolving them. A number of engineeringcase studies are used to illustrate in detailthe formulation process.

The Transformation ofMathematics in the EarlyMediterranean WorldFrom Problems to EquationsReviel NetzStanford University, CA“For the true mathematics historian,this is a fascinating exploration,perhaps different from one’s previousideas of this time period. Highlyrecommended.”—M.D. Sanford, Felician College

The transformation of mathematicsfrom its ancient Greek practice to itsdevelopment in the medieval Arab-speaking world is approached by focusingon a single problem proposed byArchimedes and the many solutionsoffered. From a practice of mathematicsbased on the localized solution(originating in the polemical practices ofearly Greek science), we see a transitionto a practice of mathematics based onthe systematic approach (grounded in thedeuteronomic practices of Late Antiquityand the Middle Ages). A radically newinterpretation is accordingly offered of thehistorical trajectory of pre-modernmathematics.Contents:Introduction; 1. The problem in the world ofArchimedes; 2.

The Geometry ofEfficient Fair DivisionJulius B. BarbanelUnion College, Schenectady, NY

Introduction byAlan D. TaylorWhat is the best way to divide a cakeand allocate the pieces among some finitecollection of players? In this book, thecake is a measure space, and each playeruses a countably additive, non-atomicprobability measure to evaluate the sizeof the pieces of cake, with differentplayers generally using different measures.The author investigates efficiencyproperties (is there another partition thatwould make everyone at least as happy,and would make at least one playerhappier, than the present partition?) andfairness properties (do all players thinkthat their piece is at least as large asevery other player’s piece?). He focusesexclusively on abstract existence resultsrather than algorithms, and on thegeometric objects that arise naturally inthis context. By examining the shape ofthese objects and the relationshipbetween them, he demonstrates resultsconcerning the existence of efficient andfair partitions.2005/472 pp./73 line diagrams84248-4/Hb/List: $95.00Disc.: $76.00

Dicing with DeathChance, Risk and HealthStephen SennUniversity of Glasgow, Scotland, UK“In this superbly written book, theauthor sets out to celebrate the roleand contribution of statistics in thelife sciences. He accomplishes this byproviding clear explanations of thereasoning behind major statisticalconcepts and techniques, includinginterpretations of probability,significance testing, Bayesianreasoning, randomized clinical trials,meta-analysis and others. To engagethe reader’s attention and interest, heeffortlessly makes use of paradoxes,controversies, glimpses intopersonalities, anecdotes and humor,all with a high degree of success. Thisis a unique and delightful book aboutthe logic and utility of statisticalscience, especially in medicalresearch.”—Doody’s Notes

“In Dicing with Death, Senn sets outto ‘explain how important statisticsis’ and takes the reader on a wild,thought-provoking and alwaysentertaining ride through biostatisticsand beyond.
