Book Description
"Iconic bad boy romance with a plot that doesn't allow your eyes to leave the page." "Aiden is beautifully written with a romance that will have you daydreaming." When Emilia Banks finishes her freshman year of college and meets the enchanting and successful Aiden Scott, her thoroughly planned life takes an unpredicted turn towards danger and devotion. Aiden thought he had everything he could dream of... youth, wealth and power. That is until Emilia dances into his life, setting a blazing fire of color through every dark corner he's hidden himself inside of. The question remains, is her light to bright, her soul too pure to be so utterly consumed with someone that has such dark demons lurking around at every corner? Is Emilia ready to be involved with the dangerous games that Aiden's empire entails?

Mathematical Constants II
Author: Steven R. FinchPublisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108470599
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 783
Book Description
Famous mathematical constants include the ratio of circular circumference to diameter, π = 3.14 ..., and the natural logarithm base, e = 2.718 .... Students and professionals can often name a few others, but there are many more buried in the literature and awaiting discovery. How do such constants arise, and why are they important? Here the author renews the search he began in his book Mathematical Constants, adding another 133 essays that broaden the landscape. Topics include the minimality of soap film surfaces, prime numbers, elliptic curves and modular forms, Poisson-Voronoi tessellations, random triangles, Brownian motion, uncertainty inequalities, Prandtl-Blasius flow (from fluid dynamics), Lyapunov exponents, knots and tangles, continued fractions, Galton-Watson trees, electrical capacitance (from potential theory), Zermelo's navigation problem, and the optimal control of a pendulum. Unsolved problems appear virtually everywhere as well. This volume continues an outstanding scholarly attempt to bring together all significant mathematical constants in one place.
