Spectral analysis of large dimensional random matrices = 大维随机矩阵的谱分析 /

作者：  Zhidong Bai, Jack W. Silverstein.

出版社：

简介：　　The aim of the book is to introduce basic concepts, main results, and widely applied mathematical tools in the spectral analysis of large dimensional random matrices. In it we will introduce many of the fundamental results, such as the semicircular law of Wigner matrices, the Marchenko-Pastur law, the limiting spectral distribution of the multivariate F matrix, limits of extremal eigenvalues, spectrum separation theorems, convergence rates of empirical spectral distributions, central limit theorems of linear spectral statistics and the partial solution of the famous circular law. While deriving the main results, the book will simultaneously emphasize the ideas and methodologies of the fundamental mathematical tools, among them being: truncation techniques, matrix transformations, moment convergence theorems, and the Stieltjes transform. Thus, its treatment is especially fitting to the needs of mathematics and statistic graduate students, and beginning researchers, who can learn the basic methodologies and ideas to solve problems in this area. It may also serve as a detailed handbook on results of large dimensional random matrices for practical users. ...

简介：Summary: Publisher Summary 1 Most philosophical explorations of responsibility discuss the topic solely in terms of metaphysics and the "free will" problem. By contrast, these essays by leading philosophers view responsibility from a variety of perspectives--metaphysics, ethics, action theory, and the philosophy of law. After a broad, framing introduction by the volume's editors, the contributors consider such subjects as responsibility as it relates to the "free will" problem; the relation between responsibility and knowledge or ignorance; the relation between causal and moral responsibility; the difference, if any, between responsibility for actions and responsibility for omissions; the metaphysical requirements for making sense of "collective" responsibility; and the relation between moral and legal responsibility. The contributors include such distinguished authors as Alfred R. Mele, John Martin Fischer, George Sher, and Frances Kamm, as well as important rising scholars. Taken together, the essays in Action, Ethics, and Responsibility offer a breadth of perspectives that is unmatched by other treatments of the topic.ContributorsJoseph Keim Campbell, David Chan, Randolph Clarke, E.

简介：　　From School Library Journal A practical and upbeat guide to saving resources and protecting the en vironment. Each brief chapter begins with an often humorous "Take a Guess，" followed by an overview of a problem in "Did You Know，" "What You Can Do，" and "See For Yourself" sections. Statistics and measurements are translated into age-appropriate terms， such as comparing children's weight to the amount of garbage thrown away in a year. Simple demonstrations (counting cans in a supermarket) im press upon readers the vast quantities of materials and energy routinely used. As books that deal with pollution and/ or ecology generally present the prob lem first and append a chapter recom mending action， they lack the optimis tic and encouraging tone of this book. Some of the suggestions are not easy， and adult assistance and advice are em phasized. Parents and teachers will find this to be a useful guide for increasing awareness of environmental problems and a superb teaching tool. Black-and- white drawings decorate each page. Newton's Taking a Stand Against En vironmental Pollution (Watts， 1990) is for older readers.-Meryl Silverstein， formerly at Meyer Levin Junior High School， BrooklynCopyright 1990 Reed Business Information， Inc. Card catalog description Explains how specific things in a child's environment are connected to the rest of the world， how using them affects the planet， and how the individual can develop habits and projects that are environmentally sound.

简介：A collection of American poems written for children or traditionally enjoyed by children, by such authors as Longfellow, Poe, Eugene Field, Langston Hughes, Dr. Seuss, and Jack Prelutsky. In the tradition of Iona and Peter Opie's Oxford Book of Children's Verse comes this anthology by the award-winning poet and children's book author Donald Hall. Bringing together "poems written for children and also poems written for anybody which children have enjoyed," the book includes anonymous works, ballads, and recitation pieces, beginning with the Calvinist verses of the seventeenth century. Hall has collected poems from Sunday School magazines, Christmas annuals for children, and children's periodicals such as St. Nicholas and Youth's Companion. Many marvelous writers, some no longer remembered, wrote almost every month for these nineteenth and twentieth century publications. In addition to the expected names of Longfellow and Whittier, we find Sarah Josepha Hale ("Mary Had a Little Lamb"), Mary Mapes Dodge (creator of Hans Brinker), and Palmer Cox (with his marvelous Brownies). Twentieth century authors abound: Ogden Nash, T.S. Eliot, John Updike, Theodore Roethke, to name just a few. The book concludes with the fabulous nonsense of present-day writers like Shel Silverstein and Nancy Willard. -- from publisher description

简介：This book chronicles Donald Burkholder's thirty-five year study of martingales and its consequences. Here are some of the highlights. Pioneering work by Burkholder and Donald Austin on the discrete time martingale square function led to Burkholder and Richard Gundy's proof of inequalities comparing the quadratic variations and maximal functions of continuous martingales, inequalities which are now indispensable tools for stochastic analysis. Part of their proof showed how novel distributional inequalities between the maximal function and quadratic variation lead to inequalities for certain integrals of functions of these operators. The argument used in their proof applies widely and is now called the Burkholder-Gundy good lambda method. This uncomplicated and yet extremely elegant technique, which does not involve randomness, has become important in many parts of mathematics. The continuous martingale inequalities were then used by Burkholder, Gundy, and Silverstein to prove the converse of an old and celebrated theorem of Hardy and Littlewood. This paper transformed the theory of Hardy spaces of analytic functions in the unit disc and extended and completed classical results of Marcinkiewicz concerning norms of conjugate functions and Hilbert transforms. While some connections between probability and analytic and harmonic functions had previously been known, this single paper persuaded many analysts to learn probability. These papers together with Burkholder's study of martingale transforms led to major advances in Banach spaces. A simple geometric condition given by Burkholder was shown by Burkholder, Terry McConnell, and Jean Bourgain to characterize those Banach spaces for which the analog of the Hilbert transform retains important properties of the classical Hilbert transform. Techniques involved in Burkholder's usually successful pursuit of best constants in martingale inequalities have become central to extensive recent research into two well- known open problems, one involving the two dimensional Hilbert transform and its connection to quasiconformal mappings and the other a conjecture in the calculus of variations concerning rank-one convex and quasiconvex functions. This book includes reprints of many of Burkholder's papers, together with two commentaries on his work and its continuing impact.

简介：The men and women who discuss their experiences in Straight Jobs, Gay Lives talk frankly about such issues as coming out versus being closeted in the workplace, harassment, discrimination, health and insurance benefits, resources and support groups, and the differences between the experiences of gay men and lesbians. Straight Jobs, Gay Lives includes hundreds of personal stories of men and women of all ages and races at all career stages to provide an exhaustive, comprehensive, and readable guide to being gay and succeeding in the American workplace. Straight Jobs, Gay Lives provides insight into how gay graduates feel about their personal lives and their jobs - from the incredible highs that the business world has to offer to the incredible frustrations with the "lavender ceiling." Annette Friskopp and Sharon Silverstein interview men and women, some closeted for their entire careers, afraid of what exposure might mean, and others who are open about their sexuality from their first day on the job. The authors talk with gay professionals who are self-employed, who work for small companies, who work in prestigious consulting firms, investment banks, or for Fortune 500 multinationals. The result is a book that will provide gay readers with the encouragement, information, and support that they need to navigate in today's fast-changing business world and will be a valuable tool for heterosexual managers as well. Friskopp and Silverstein highlight the challenges and opportunities for productivity enhancement that managers of a diverse workplace face, from benefits issues to office politics. Also in the book are some of the most comprehensive and up-to-date listings ever published regarding companies with nondiscrimination policies and domestic partner benefits; contact listings for gay employee groups and gay professional groups nationwide; and an overwhelming list of resource materials and guides.

简介：The concepts of time and identity seem at once unproblematic and frustratingly difficult. Time is an intricate part of our experience--it would seem that the passage of time is a prerequisite for having any experience at all--and yet recalcitrant questions about time remain. Is time real? Does time flow? Do past and future moments exist? Philosophers face similarly stubborn questions about identity, particularly about the persistence of identical entities through change. Indeed, questions about the metaphysics of persistence take on many of the complexities inherent in philosophical considerations of time. This volume of original essays brings together these two essentially related concepts in a way not reflected in the available literature, making it required reading for philosophers working in metaphysics and students interested in these topics. The contributors, distinguished authors and rising scholars, first consider the nature of time and then turn to the relation of identity, focusing on the metaphysical connections between the two, with a special emphasis on personal identity. The volume concludes with essays on the metaphysics of death, issues in which time and identity play a significant role. This groundbreaking collection offers both cutting-edge epistemological analysis and historical perspectives on contemporary topics.Contributors Harriet Baber, Lynne Rudder Baker, Ben Bradley, John W.

简介：Intended mainly for advanced graduate students in theoretical physics, this comprehensive volume covers recent advances in string theory and field theory dualities. It is based on the annual lectures given at the School of the Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (2003) a traditional event that brings together graduate students in high energy physics for an intensive course given by leaders in their fields. The first lecture by Paul Aspinwall is a description of branes in Calabi-Yau manifolds, which includes an introduction to the modern ideas of derived categories and their relation to D-branes. Juan Maldacena's second lecture is a short introduction to the AdS/CFT correspondence with a short discussion on its plane wave limit. Tachyon condensation for open strings is discussed in the third lecture by Ashoke Sen while Eva Silverstein provides a useful summary of the various attempts to produce four-dimensional physics out of string theory and M-theory in the fourth lecture. Matthew Strassler's fifth lecture is a careful discussion of a theory that has played a very important role in recent developments in string theory - a quantum field theory that produces a duality cascade which also has a large N gravity description. The sixth lecture by Washington Taylor explains how to perform perturbative computations using string field theory. The written presentation of these lectures is detailed yet straightforward, and they will be of great use to both students and experienced researchers in high-energy theoretical physics.

简介："In this Very Short Introduction, Adam J. Silverstein covers the rise and spread of Islam from the seventh to the twenty-first century, charting the evolution of what was originally a small, localised community of believers into an international religion with over a billion adherents. Silverstein analyzes the role that Islamic history plays in both religious and political contexts, looking at the controversies surrounding its study and the significance that it holds - for both Muslims and non-Muslims alike."--BOOK JACKET.
