    • Topics in control theory 

      [OWS-22] Knobloch, Hans W.; Isidori, Alberto; Dietrich, Flockerzi (Birkhäuser Basel, 1993)
      One of the key concerns in modern control theory is the design of steering strategies. The implementation of such strategies is done by a regulator. Presented here is a self-contained introduction to the mathematical ...

    • Computational algebraic number theory 

      [OWS-21] Pohst, Michael (Birkhäuser Basel, 1993)

      [OWS-27] Knauf, Andreas; Sinai, Yakov G. (Birkhäuser Basel, 1997)
      Our DMV Seminar on 'Classical Nonintegrability, Quantum Chaos' intended to introduce students and beginning researchers to the techniques applied in nonin­ tegrable classical and quantum dynamics. Several of these lectures ...

    • Scaling limits and models in physical processes 

      [OWS-28] Cercignani, Carlo; Sattinger, David (Birkhäuser Basel, 1998)

    • Polytopes - combinatorics and computation 

      [OWS-29] Kalai, Gil; Ziegler, Günter M. (Birkhäuser Basel, 2000)
      Questions that arose from linear programming and combinatorial optimization have been a driving force for modern polytope theory, such as the diameter questions motivated by the desire to understand the complexity of the ...

    • Infinite dimensional Kähler manifolds 

      [OWS-31] Huckleberry, Alan; Wurzbacher, Tilmann (Birkhäuser Basel, 2001)
      Infinite dimensional manifolds, Lie groups and algebras arise naturally in many areas of mathematics and physics. Having been used mainly as a tool for the study of finite dimensional objects, the emphasis has changed and ...

      [OWS-30] Scholz, Erhard (Birkhäuser Basel, 2001)
      Historical interest and studies of Weyl's role in the interplay between 20th-century mathematics, physics and philosophy have been increasing since the middle 1980s, triggered by different activities at the occasion of the ...
