Description for An Introduction To The Heisenberg Group
Hardback. Series: Progress in Mathematics. Num Pages: 240 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBMP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 155 x 14. Weight in Grams: 1150.
This book gives an up-to-date account of progress on Pansu's celebrated problem on the sub-Riemannian isoperimetric profile of the Heisenberg group. It also serves as an introduction to the general field of sub-Riemannian geometric analysis. It develops the methods and tools of sub-Riemannian differential geometry, nonsmooth analysis, and geometric measure theory suitable for attacks on Pansu's problem.

Reviews for An Introduction To The Heisenberg Group
Aus den Rezensionen: "Es geht um differentialgeometrische Fragestellungen im Falle von Heisenberggruppen und verwandten Raumen ... liefert dies Modelle fur eingeschrankte Bewegungsmoglichkeiten ... gibt eine systematische Einfuhrung zu den mathematischen Aspekten der Theorie, beschreibt einige Anwendungen und fuhrt weiter zu aktuellen Forschungsthemen ... Eine umfangreiche Bibliographie liefert weitere Informationen." (V. LOSERT, in: Monatshefte fur Mathematik, January/2010, Vol. 159, Issue 1-2, ... Read more
