Presenting a unified approach, this book focuses on the theoretical concepts and methods necessary for understanding the physics and chemistry of the fluid state. Important ideas are presented concisely and illustrated with examples from simple molecular liquids and more complex soft condensed matter systems such as polymers, colloids, and liquid crystals.

The third edition of Theory of Simple Liquids is an updated, advanced, but self-contained introduction to the principles of liquid-state theory. It presents the modern, molecular theory of the structural, thermodynamic interfacial and dynamical properties of the liquid phase of materials constituted of atoms, small molecules or ions. This book leans on concepts and methods form classical Statistical Mechanics in which theoretical predictions are systematically compared with experimental data and results from numerical simulations. The overall layout of the book is similar to that of the pre

`Why life?’ Questions of this type were for a long time the prerogative of philosophers who left the `how’ question to scientists. Nowadays, Darwin’s successors no longer have any qualms about addressing the `why’ as well as the `how’. Over a century ago, Darwin modestly admitted having ’thrown some light on the origin of species - this mystery of mysteries’. Two major advances in the following decades helped biologists answer many of the questions he left unsolved. The first was the discovery of the laws of heredity, the second that of DNA. Both provi

Cet ouvrage présente différents points de vue sur une même méthode, l’analyse des correspondances. Il montre comment cette méthode s’est développée pour traiter des données de plus en plus variées et complexes et comment elle s’est enrichie au contact d’autres courants de pensée. De plus, il présente un panorama des applications possibles. Cet ouvrage qui rassemble des contributions de différents auteurs présente un exposé à la fois progressif sur le plan didactique et suffisamment vaste pour rassembler en un seul volume des développements théoriques rÃ

This book introduces 2-D wavelets via 1-D continuous wavelet transforms. The authors then describe the underlying mathematics before progressing to more advanced topics such as matrix geometry of wavelet analysis and three-dimensional wavelets. Practical applications and illustrative examples are employed extensively throughout, ensuring the book’s value to engineers, physicists and mathematicians. Two-dimensional wavelets offer a number of advantages over discrete wavelet transforms, in particular, for analysis of real-time signals in such areas as medical imaging, fluid dynamics, shape

This extraordinary volume contains a large part of the mathematical correspondence between A. Grothendieck and J-P. Serre. It forms a vivid introduction to the development of algebraic geometry during the years 1955-1965. During this period, algebraic geometry went through a remarkable transformation, and Grothendieck and Serre were among central figures in this process. In the book, the reader can follow the creation of some of the most important notions of modern mathematics. The letters also reflect the mathematical and political atmosphere of this period. They are supplemented by J-P. S
