A community of scholars : impressions of the Institute for Advanced Study by Serge J-F Levy( )

3 editions published between 2011 and 2012 in English and held by 1,472 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This beautifully illustrated anthology celebrates eighty years of history and intellectual inquiry at the Institute for Advanced Study, one of the world's leading centers for theoretical research. Featuring essays by current and former members and faculty along with photographs by Serge J-F. Levy, the book captures the spirit of curiosity, freedom, and comradeship that is a hallmark of this unique community of scholars. Founded in 1930 in Princeton, New Jersey, the institute encourages and supports fundamental research in the sciences and humanities--the original, often speculative thinking th

Colonial identity in the Atlantic world, 1500-1800( Book )

6 editions published between 1987 and 1989 in English and held by 658 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"The prolonged death throes of Europe's last overseas empires have stimulated a lively historical interest in the roots of decolonization. The theme is taken up in this elegantly written and admirably edited volume in which Nicholas Canny and Anthony Pagden bring together a team of specialists to examine how, in the major Atlantic empires prior to the independence movements of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, colonies came to see themselves as possessing their own particular characteristics, and the bearing this had on those revolutions."

Seminar on singularities of solutions of linear partial differential equations by Lars Hörmander( Book )

4 editions published in 1979 in English and held by 589 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Singularities of solutions of differential equations forms the common theme of these papers taken from a seminar held at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton in 1977-1978. While some of the lectures were devoted to the analysis of singularities, others focused on applications in spectral theory. As an introduction to the subject, this volume treats current research in the field in such a way that it can be studied with profit by the non-specialist

Seminar on differential geometry by Seminar on Differential Geometry. <1979 - 1980>( Book )

4 editions published in 1982 in English and held by 568 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This collection of papers constitutes a wide-ranging survey of recent developments in differential geometry and its interactions with other fields, especially partial differential equations and mathematical physics. This area of mathematics was the subject of a special program at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton during the academic year 1979-1980; the papers in this volume were contributed by the speakers in the sequence of seminars organized by Shing-Tung Yau for this program. Both survey articles and articles presenting new results are included. The articles on differential geometry and partial differential equations include a general survey article by the editor on the relationship of the two fields and more specialized articles on topics including harmonic mappings, isoperimetric and Poincaré inequalities, metrics with specified curvature properties, the Monge-Arnpere equation, L2 harmonic forms and cohomology, manifolds of positive curvature, isometric embedding, and Kraumlhler manifolds and metrics. The articles on differential geometry and mathematical physics cover such topics as renormalization, instantons, gauge fields and the Yang-Mills equation, nonlinear evolution equations, incompleteness of space-times, black holes, and quantum gravity. A feature of special interest is the inclusion of a list of more than one hundred unsolved research problems compiled by the editor with comments and bibliographical information

Seminar on micro-local analysis by Victor Guillemin( Book )

2 editions published in 1979 in English and held by 362 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Based on a seminar sponsored by the Institute for Advanced Study in 1977-1978, this set of papers introduces micro-local analysis concisely and clearly to mathematicians with an analytical background. The papers treat the theory of microfunctions and applications such as boundary values of elliptic partial differential equations, propagation of singularities in the vicinity of degenerate characteristics, holonomic systems, Feynman integrals from the hyperfunction point of view, and harmonic analysis on Lie groups

Analytic functions of several complex variables; lectures delivered at the Institute for Advanced Study during the fall term of 1948 by C. L Siegel( Book )

12 editions published between 1949 and 2008 in English and held by 107 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Carl L. Siegel (1896-1981) was one of the finest mathematicians of the twentieth century. The present book is a set of lectures on favorite themes of Siegel, delivered at the Institute for Advanced Study in 1948-1949. The notes on which the book was based were drawn up with great care by Paul T. Bateman. The book, which has been unavailable for many years, has been retyped in an attractive modern format. The first part deals with meromorphic functions with 2n independent periods, and the rest of the book is devoted to automorphic functions with bounded domain."--Back cover
