Find tips, reviews, and features on Lectures on Mechanics London Mathematical sold for 57.04 $ , available in the Books & Magazines category; this product belongs to and is sold by Abebooks.com.
The use of geometric methods in classical mechanics has proven fruitful with wide applications in physics and engineering In this book Professor Marsden concentrates on these geometric aspects especially on symmetry techniques The main points he covers are the stability of relative equilibria which is analyzed using the block diagonalization technique geometric phases studied using the reduction and reconstruction technique and bifurcation of relative equilibria and chaos in mechanical systems A unifying theme for these points is provided by reduction theory the associated mechanical connection and techniques from dynamical systems These methods can be applied to many control and stabilization situations and this is illustrated using rigid bodies with internal rotors and the use of geometric phases in mechanical systems To illustrate the above ideas and the power of geometric arguments the author studies a variety of specific systems including the double spherical pendulum and the classical rotating water molecule

Explore tips, opinions, and features on Forcing with Random Variables and sold at 73.03 $ ; this product is listed in the Books & Magazines category, produced by , and sold by Abebooks.com.
This book introduces a new approach to building models of bounded arithmetic with techniques drawn from recent results in computational complexity Propositional proof systems and bounded arithmetics are closely related In particular proving lower bounds on the lengths of proofs in propositional proof systems is equivalent to constructing certain extensions of models of bounded arithmetic This offers a clean and coherent framework for thinking about lower bounds for proof lengths and it has proved quite successful in the past This book outlines a brand new method for constructing models of bounded arithmetic thus for proving independence results and establishing lower bounds for proof lengths The models are built from random variables defined on a sample space which is a nonstandard finite set and sampled by functions of some restricted computational complexity It will appeal to anyone interested in logical approaches to fundamental problems in complexity theory
