Description for Elliptic Functions and Applications
hardcover. Develops the fundamental properties of elliptic functions and illustrates them by applications in geometry, mathematical physics and engineering. This book employs the theory of functions of a complex variable as an analytical tool. It is suitable for mathematicians at various stages of an undergraduate or post-graduate course. Series: Applied Mathematical Sciences. Num Pages: 350 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBKD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 241 x 163 x 25. Weight in Grams: 670.
The subject matter of this book formed the substance of a mathematical se am which was worked by many of the great mathematicians of the last century. The mining metaphor is here very appropriate, for the analytical tools perfected by Cauchy permitted the mathematical argument to penetra te to unprecedented depths over a restricted region of its domain and enabled mathematicians like Abel, Jacobi, and Weierstrass to uncover a treasurehouse of results whose variety, aesthetic appeal, and capacity for arousing our astonishment have not since been equaled by research in any other area. But the circumstance that this theory can ... Read more
