Description for Lectures on Quasiconformal Mappings (University Lecture Series)
Paperback. Covers developments in the theory of Teichmuller spaces and offers references to the literature on Teichmuller spaces and quasiconformal mappings. This work describes how quasiconformal mappings have revitalized the subject of complex dynamics. It illustrates the role of these mappings in Thurston's theory of hyperbolic structures on 3-manifolds. Series: University Lecture Series. Num Pages: 162 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBKD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 252 x 179 x 10. Weight in Grams: 320.
Lars Ahlfors' Lectures on Quasiconformal Mappings, based on a course he gave at Harvard University in the spring term of 1964, was first published in 1966 and was soon recognized as the classic it was shortly destined to become. These lectures develop the theory of quasiconformal mappings from scratch, give a self-contained treatment of the Beltrami equation, and cover the basic properties of Teichmuller spaces, including the Bers embedding and the Teichmuller curve. It is remarkable how Ahlfors goes straight to the heart of the matter, presenting major results with a minimum set of prerequisites. Many graduate students and other ... Read more
