Cremona Groups and the Icosahedron
Ivan Cheltsov, University of Edinburgh, Scotland and
Constantin Shramov, Steklov Institute of Mathematics,
Moscow, Russia
This work focuses on the Cremona groups of ranks 2 and 3 and
describes the beautiful appearances of the icosahedral group
A5 in them. The authors present interesting results that highlight
the beauty of icosahedral symmetries of the variety 5. The book
surveys known facts about surfaces with an action of A5, explores
A5-equivariant geometry of the quintic del Pezzo threefold 5,
and gives a proof of its A5-birational rigidity.

This is the first book devoted exclusively to quantitative graph
theory. It presents and demonstrates existing and novel methods
for analyzing graphs quantitatively. Incorporating interdisciplinary
knowledge from graph theory, information theory, measurement
theory, and statistical techniques, this book covers a wide range
of quantitative-graph theoretical concepts and methods,
including those pertaining to real and random graphs. Through
its broad coverage, this text fills a gap in the contemporary

Scattering of Waves
Applied Theory
D. N. Ghosh Roy, (816)Utah Center For Advanced Imaging Research (UCAIR), Salt

One of the most important areas of study in mathematics, physics and engineering involves
scattering and the propagation of scalar and vector waves. This topic is very mathematical,
which often obscures the physics and engineering of scattering and propagation. It is the
goal of this author to introduce this topic in a manner where the emphasis is placed on
the physical interpretations of the mathematics involved without losing the mathematical
rigor. Lastly, a number of important developments in this field are discussed that have
never been mentioned in books before as they are hidden away in many different journal
articles.

22 GENERAL & INTRODUCTORY MATHEMATICS
Time and Consistent Relativity
Physical and Mathematical Fundamentals
Lyubomir T. Gruyitch, Retired Professor, University of
Technology Belfort–Montbeliard, France
This book establishes a new and original theory of time relativity,
which is fully consistent. It explains why Einstein’s theory of time
relativity is physically meaningless and mathematically based
on tacit inacceptable assumptions, and why it represents the
singular case from the mathematical point of view. The
consistent relativity theory established in the book represents
an exit from the situation created by Einstein’s theory of time
relativity.

Waves and Oscillations in Nature
An Introduction
A Satya Narayanan and Swapan K Saha
Suitable for researchers and graduate students in fluid dynamics,
astrophysics, and other areas of physics, this book clearly
elucidates the dynamics and behavior of waves and oscillations
in various mediums. It presents different types of waves and
oscillations that can be observed and studied from macroscopic
to microscopic scales. The authors describe applications in
astrophysics, include simple exercises to give readers a hands-on
grasp of the basics, and provide a large list of bibliographic
sources that enable readers to research more technical aspects.

Why String Theory?
Joseph Conlon, University of Oxford and New College, UK
This popular science book offers a highly readable and accessible
panorama of the who, what, and why of string theory. The
author, a theoretical physics professor at the University of Oxford
and a leading string theorist, explains what string theory is and
where it originated. He describes how string theory fits into
physics and why so many physicists and mathematicians find it
appealing when working on topics from M-theory to monsters
and from cosmology to superconductors.

and Carole Le Guyader, National Institute of Applied
Sciences (INSA) Rouen, France
Imaging Sciences Series
Filled with tables, illustrations, algorithms, and exercises, this
self-contained textbook presents the principles, techniques, and
applications of variational image processing. It focuses on
variational models, their corresponding Euler–Lagrange
equations, and numerical implementations for image processing.
The book balances traditional computational models with more
modern techniques that solve the latest challenges introduced
by new image acquisition devices. It includes the necessary
mathematical background and covers the most important problems in image processing.

presents orthogonal Walsh functions for analyzing power
electronic systems. It covers two major members of the
piecewise constant orthogonal function family: orthogonal Walsh

compatible to digital processing and, by increasing the number
of component functions, a continuous-like solution can be

Alexander B. Kharazishvili, Tbilisi State University, Georgia
This book addresses a number of questions in real analysis and
classical measure theory that are of a set-theoretic flavor.
Accessible to graduate students, the beginning of the book
presents introductory topics on real analysis and Lebesque
measure theory. These topics highlight the boundary between
fundamental concepts of measurability and non-measurability
for point sets and functions. The remainder of the book deals
with more specialized material on set-theoretical real analysis.
Problems are included at the end of each chapter.

Next Generation Sequencing Data Analysis
Xinkun Wang, University of Kansas, Lawrence, USA
Recent advances in genomics technology has dramatically reduced the cost of genome
sequencing. Huge amounts of data is generated by next generation sequencing (NGS)
technologies, posing substantial data analysis problems for many life scientists. There is a
huge gap in the market for a book that gives practical guidance on these complex methods.
This book provides practical NGS data analysis techniques for an applied audience with
guidance on software and algorithms. It includes lots of examples using real data to illustrate
all the techniques. It will be the first authored book on NGS data analysis and will generate

years. It includes an essay from cofounder Bill Gould as well as
essays from prominent researchers and members of the Stata
community. Most discuss Stata’s use and evolution in disciplines
such as behavioral sciences, business, economics, epidemiology,
time series, political science, public health, public policy,
veterinary epidemiology, and statistics. Some take a sweeping
overview. The book is a celebration of the relationship between
Stata users and Stata software.

Reliability Analysis with Minitab
Kishore Kumar Pochampally, Southern New Hampshire
University, MA and Surendra M. Gupta, Northeastern
University, Boston, Massachusetts, USA
Reliability is quality over time. It is formally defined as the
probability of a product or system performing as intended for
a specified time. Improper analysis of product reliability can be
very expensive or even fatal. Many of the product recalls that
we see daily are due to unexpected failures resulting from poor
reliability analysis during the product design stage. Minitabis a
statistical software package that has a highly useful set of
"Reliability/Survival" tools, but those tools are barely explored
or explained in literature. This new book illustrates the
application of Minitabfor Reliability Analysis using case studies
in both manufacturing and service sectors.

Statistics for Mining Engineering
Jacek M. Czaplicki, Silesian University of Technology, Gliwice,
Poland
Knowledge about modern statistics is necessary for mining
engineers; not only on how statistical analysis of data should be
conducted and statistical synthesis should be done, but also on
understanding the results obtained and how to use them to
make appropriate decisions connected with a mining operation.;
This book on statistical analysis and synthesis is preceded by a
short repetition of the probability theory. A special section about
statistical prediction is also included. The text is illustrated by many examples taken from
mine practice, moreover the tables required to conduct statistical inference are attached.

Technology, The Netherlands
This book provides an overview of calibration and validation
techniques for traffic simulation models. It details the data
required as an input for the calibration and validation processes
and shows how to increase its applicability using data
enhancement techniques. It presents an extensive overview of
traffic estimation, calibration, and validation techniques, taking
into account the key factor of uncertainty. This book derives
