Book Description
Nonholonomic systems are a widespread topic in several scientific and commercial domains, including robotics, locomotion and space exploration. This work sheds new light on this interdisciplinary character through the investigation of a variety of aspects coming from several disciplines. The main aim is to illustrate the idea that a better understanding of the geometric structures of mechanical systems unveils new and unknown aspects to them, and helps both analysis and design to solve standing problems and identify new challenges. In this way, separate areas of research such as Classical Mechanics, Differential Geometry, Numerical Analysis or Control Theory are brought together in this study of nonholonomic systems.

Representation Theory and Complex Analysis
Author: Michael Cowling
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540768912
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
Six leading experts lecture on a wide spectrum of recent results on the subject of the title. They present a survey of various interactions between representation theory and harmonic analysis on semisimple groups and symmetric spaces, and recall the concept of amenability. They further illustrate how representation theory is related to quantum computing; and much more. Taken together, this volume provides both a solid reference and deep insights on current research activity.

Nonholonomic Mechanics and Control
Author: A.M. Bloch
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387955356
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 501
Book Description
This book explores connections between control theory and geometric mechanics. The author links control theory with a geometric view of classical mechanics in both its Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations, and in particular with the theory of mechanical systems subject to motion constraints. The synthesis is appropriate as there is a rich connection between mechanics and nonlinear control theory. The book provides a unified treatment of nonlinear control theory and constrained mechanical systems that incorporates material not available in other recent texts. The book benefits graduate students and researchers in the area who want to enhance their understanding and enhance their techniques.

Hydrodynamic Limits of the Boltzmann Equation
Author: Laure Saint-Raymond
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3540928472
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 203
Book Description
The aim of this book is to present some mathematical results describing the transition from kinetic theory, and, more precisely, from the Boltzmann equation for perfect gases to hydrodynamics. Different fluid asymptotics will be investigated, starting always from solutions of the Boltzmann equation which are only assumed to satisfy the estimates coming from physics, namely some bounds on mass, energy and entropy.

Donaldson Type Invariants for Algebraic Surfaces
Author: Takuro Mochizuki
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3540939121
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 404
Book Description
We are defining and studying an algebro-geometric analogue of Donaldson invariants by using moduli spaces of semistable sheaves with arbitrary ranks on a polarized projective surface.We are interested in relations among the invariants, which are natural generalizations of the "wall-crossing formula" and the "Witten conjecture" for classical Donaldson invariants. Our goal is to obtain a weaker version of these relations, by systematically using the intrinsic smoothness of moduli spaces. According to the recent excellent work of L. Goettsche, H. Nakajima and K. Yoshioka, the wall-crossing formula for Donaldson invariants of projective surfaces can be deduced from such a weaker result in the rank two case!
