This book presents the theory and applications of Fourier series and integrals, Laplace Transforms, eigenfunction expansions, and related topics. It deals almost exclusively with those aspects of Fourier analysis that are useful in physics and engineering. Using ideas from modern analysis, it discusses the concepts and reasoning behind the techniques without getting bogged down in the technicalities of rigorous proofs. A wide variety of applications are included, in addition to discussions of integral equations and signal analysis.

Isaacs' love for algebra and his more than 25 years of teaching experience in mathematics is evident throughout the book. In order to draw students into the material, Isaacs offers numerous examples and exercises and he seldom teaches a definition unless it leads to some interesting or exciting theorem. A number of specialized topics are included, so professors may design a course that is compatible with their own tastes. Students using this book should have knowledge of the basic ideas of group theory, ring theory, and field theory. They should know elementary linear algebra and matrix theory and they should be comfortable with mathematical proofs (how to read them, invent them, and write them).

Algebra: A Graduate Course

Isaacs, I. Martin

This book takes a rigorous approach to, and therefore creates a deeper understanding of, the usual topics handled in one-dimensional calculus--limits, continuity, differentiation, integration, and infinite series. The text was designed to bridge the gap between intuitive calculus courses normally offered at the undergraduate level and the sophisticated analysis courses offered at the senior or graduate level. The author wrote the book with two goals in mind: the development of a rigorous foundation for the basic topics of analysis, and the less tangible acquisition of an accurate intuitive feeling for analysis.

I. Martin Isaacs', author of the well-known ALGEBRA: A GRADUATE COURSE, has written a new text that will make readers appreciate the beauty of geometry, especially what it can teach about deductive reasoning and the nature of mathematical proofs. The author focuses on the two classic themes of geometry: facts and proofs.

The purpose of this book, written by world-renowned authorities in this field, is to guide the reader in learning about new developments in approximation theory that have come up over the last 20 years. The emphasis is on multivariate approximation theory. Most of the topics appear for the first time here in a systematic textbook and many are still current areas of research. The authors cover positive definite functions, radial basis interpolation, thin-plate splines, neural networks, ridge functions, box splines, approximation on spheres, and wavelets. Every chapter includes practical problems from current research in areas of science, engineering, geophysics, business, and economics.

Light, W. A.

Written by a successful author and respected mathematician, this book emphasizes a concrete and computational approach to the subject of Fourier analysis and wavelet theory while maintaining a balance between theory and applications. In some cases, several different proofs are offered for a given proposition, allowing students to compare different methods.

The Mathematics of Finance: Modeling and Hedging explains the process of computing derivative prices in terms of underlying equity prices, while at the same time provides readers with the mathematical tools and techniques to carry out that process. The authors help readers understand the process, develop insights into how derivatives are used, and comprehend the risk associated with creating or trading these assets. These insights into derivative trading provide extra knowledge of how modern equity markets work.

This highly successful and scholarly book introduces readers with diverse backgrounds to the various types of mathematical analysis that are commonly needed in scientific computing. The subject of numerical analysis is treated from a mathematical point of view, offering a complete analysis of methods for scientific computing with careful proofs and scientific background. An in-depth treatment of the topics of numerical analysis, a more scholarly approach, and a different menu of topics sets this book apart from the authors' well-respected and best-selling text: NUMERICAL MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTING, FOURTH EDITION.

In the same way the subject evolved historically, Ronald Solomon lets the abstract concepts emerge gradually from less abstract problems about geometry, polynomials, numbers, and more. Solomon also strongly emphasizes the connections between algebra and other areas of mathematics -- analysis (the infinitesimal calculus) and geometry. Readers will see that the various areas of mathematics are not hermetically sealed off from each other and that most of the truly important achievements in mathematics have been the product of a fruitful interaction of different areas. Using this book, readers will gain a true understanding of the subject while being creative mathematically as opposed to simply imitating template problems.

As the title indicates, this text is intended for courses aimed at bridging the gap between lower level mathematics and advanced mathematics. The transition to advanced mathematics presented is discrete since continuous functions are not studied. The text provides a careful introduction to techniques for writing proofs and a logical development of topics based on intuitive understanding of concepts. The authors utilize a clear writing style and a wealth of examples to develop an understanding of discrete mathematics and critical thinking skills. Including more topics than can be covered in one semester, the text offers innovative material throughout, particularly in the last three chapters (e.g. Fibonacci Numbers and Pascal's Triangle). This allows flexibility for the instructor and the ability to teach a deeper, richer course.
