A gentle and engaging introduction to the fundamental concepts of algebraic geometry. This text uses a blend of concrete examples and theoretical development, making it ideal for students encountering the subject for the first time. Topics include affine and projective varieties, morphisms, and applications to real-world curves and surfaces.
This textbook offers a novel approach to differential geometry via the concept of D-differentiation, aiming to unify and simplify classical differential geometry techniques. It is suitable for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, emphasizing both theoretical foundation and applications.
Femtochemistry explores the ultrafast realm of chemical reactions occurring on femtosecond (10⁻¹⁵ s) timescales. Featuring a compilation of pioneering research—including Ahmed Zewail’s Nobel Lecture—the volume examines how advanced laser spectroscopy enables real-time observation of atomic and molecular dynamics during bond-making and bond-breaking events. With contributions spanni…
