Overconvergence in Complex Approximation
by Sorin G. GalThis monograph deals with the quantitative overconvergence phenomenon in complex approximation by various operators. The book is divided into three chapters. First, the results for the Schurer-Faber operator, Beta operators of first kind, Bernstein-Durrmeyer-type operators and Lorentz operator are presented. The main focus is on results for several q-Bernstein kind of operators with q > 1, when the geometric order of approximation 1/qn is obtained not only in complex compact disks but also in quaternion compact disks and in other compact subsets of the complex plane. The focus then shifts to quantitative overconvergence and convolution overconvergence results for the complex potentials generated by the Beta and Gamma Euler's functions. Finally quantitative overconvergence results for the most classical orthogonal expansions (of Chebyshev, Legendre, Hermite, Laguerre and Gegenbauer kinds) attached to vector-valued functions are presented. Each chapter concludes with a notes and open problems section, thus providing stimulation for further research. An extensive bibliography and index complete the text. This book is suitable for researchers and graduate students working in complex approximation and its applications, mathematical analysis and numerical analysis.
Overlapping Coalition Formation Games in Wireless Communication Networks
by Zhu Han Walid Saad Tianyu Wang Lingyang SongThis brief introduces overlapping coalition formation games (OCF games), a novel mathematical framework from cooperative game theory that can be used to model, design and analyze cooperative scenarios in future wireless communication networks. The concepts of OCF games are explained, and several algorithmic aspects are studied. In addition, several major application scenarios are discussed. These applications are drawn from a variety of fields that include radio resource allocation in dense wireless networks, cooperative spectrum sensing for cognitive radio networks, and resource management for crowd sourcing. For each application, the use of OCF games is discussed in detail in order to show how this framework can be used to solve relevant wireless networking problems. Overlapping Coalition Formation Games in Wireless Communication Networks provides researchers, students and practitioners with a concise overview of existing works in this emerging area, exploring the relevant fundamental theories, key techniques, and significant applications.

PCM—CMM2023: Theories, Models and Simulations of Complex Physical Systems (Lecture Notes in Networks and Systems #1146)
by Roman Szewczyk Sławomir Kciuk Arkadiusz Mężyk Eugeniusz ŚwitońskiThe idea of organizing the Polish Congress of Mechanics was born in 2005 among members of the Polish Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. The first Congress has been organized in 2007. In 2013, the organization of the Polish Congress of Mechanics was included in the statutory tasks of the Polish Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics. Referring to the splendid tradition of Polish Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, the Congress has become one of the most important international scientific conventions representing this domain of science and gathering every 4 years about 500–600 specialists, who deal with the issues of mechanics and mechanical engineering in a broad sense. The organization of the Congress allows for the connection of many scientific communities, researchers, and engineers from various universities, faculties, research centers, and institutions. Such scientific meeting is an excellent place for presentation, discussion, and dissemination of new achievements and ideas relating to the theoretical foundations as well as practical applications of mechanics. The Congress presents the current state-of-the-art research in all disciplines of classical and quantum mechanics, solid and fluid mechanics, computational mechanics, applied mechanics, and physics, as well as structural mechanics and engineering.

PWN the SAT Math Guide
by Mike McClenathanThe PWN the SAT Math Guide was created to help ambitious, highly motivated kids maximize their SAT math scores. Do you crave a higher score? Are you willing to do a little hard work to achieve it? Good. I knew I liked you. Read this book from beginning to end, with a pencil in hand and a calculator and an Official SAT Study Guide by your side. When you’re done, you’ll be able to approach the SAT with confidence—very few questions will surprise you, and even fewer will be able to withstand your withering attacks. <p><p> Stand tall, intrepid student. Destiny awaits. <p><p> Updated for the New SAT <p> This new edition of the Math Guide has been updated, rather painstakingly, to reflect the realities of the new SAT that launched in March 2016. This book was not rushed to market to take advantage of interest in the new exam. I took my time, and hopefully I got it right. <p><p> Chapters are broken into five major sections: Techniques, Heart of Algebra, Passport to Advanced Math, Problem Solving and Data Analysis, and Additional Topics in Math. Each chapter concludes with a reference list of similar questions from official practice tests. Practice questions are designated as either “Calculator” or “No calculator.” Students will be forbidden from using their calculators for one whole section of the new SAT. Emphasis is placed on nimbleness—the ability to approach problems in multiple ways to find the one that works best. Calculator solutions and shortcuts are provided where appropriate.
Padé Methods for Painlevé Equations (SpringerBriefs in Mathematical Physics #42)
by Yasuhiko Yamada Hidehito NagaoThe isomonodromic deformation equations such as the Painlevé and Garnier systems are an important class of nonlinear differential equations in mathematics and mathematical physics. For discrete analogs of these equations in particular, much progress has been made in recent decades. Various approaches to such isomonodromic equations are known: the Painlevé test/Painlevé property, reduction of integrable hierarchy, the Lax formulation, algebro-geometric methods, and others. Among them, the Padé method explained in this book provides a simple approach to those equations in both continuous and discrete cases.For a given function f(x), the Padé approximation/interpolation supplies the rational functions P(x), Q(x) as approximants such as f(x)~P(x)/Q(x). The basic idea of the Padé method is to consider the linear differential (or difference) equations satisfied by P(x) and f(x)Q(x). In choosing the suitable approximation problem, the linear differential equations give the Lax pair for some isomonodromic equations. Although this relation between the isomonodromic equations and Padé approximations has been known classically, a systematic study including discrete cases has been conducted only recently. By this simple and easy procedure, one can simultaneously obtain various results such as the nonlinear evolution equation, its Lax pair, and their special solutions. In this way, the method is a convenient means of approaching the isomonodromic deformation equations.
