Description for Classical Topics in Discrete Geometry
Hardback. This monograph leads the reader to the frontiers of the very latest research developments in what is regarded as the central zone of discrete geometry. It is constructed around four classic problems in the subject, including the Kneser-Poulsen Conjecture. Series: CMS Books in Mathematics. Num Pages: 180 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PBM. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 11. Weight in Grams: 950.
Geometry is a classical core part of mathematics which, with its birth, marked the beginning of the mathematical sciences. Thus, not surprisingly, geometry has played a key role in many important developments of mathematics in the past, as well as in present times. While focusing on modern mathematics, one has to emphasize the increasing role of discrete mathematics, or equivalently, the broad movement to establish discrete analogues of major components of mathematics. In this way, the works of a number of outstanding mathema- cians including H. S. M. Coxeter (Canada), C. A. Rogers (United Kingdom), and L. Fejes-T oth (Hungary) ... Read more

Reviews for Classical Topics in Discrete Geometry
From the reviews: “The present volume actually surveys packing and covering problems in Euclidean space and close cousins. … Bezdek … surveys the state of the art, best results, and outstanding conjectures for a host of problems. … Summing Up: Recommended. Academic audiences, upper-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty.” (D. V. Feldman, Choice, Vol. 48 (5), January, 2011) “The book ... Read more
