Harmonic Morphisms between Riemannian Manifolds (london Mathematical Society Monographs: New Series 29)

spherical and hyperbolic space. It is divided into two equal-sized parts: the first is devoted to the two-dimensional case, where much more is known than in the n-dimensional setting, which is discussed in the second part. In addition, there is an appendix providing some important background information, essentially from convex geometry. Many of the sections end with interesting and stimulating...

Classical invariant theory, by Peter Olver, London Mathematical Society Student

Classical invariant theory was a hot topic in the 19 century and in the beginning of the 20 century. The book under review is an attempt to revive this beautiful subject. In our new era of computers and new interest in computational aspects, it is certainly worthwhile to recall the constructive methods of the 19 century invariant theorists. In classical invariant theory one studies polynomials ...

50% of the open reading frames (ORFs) have been linked the session chairman allows. The protagonists become ever more flushed and resentful, and the audience look to a known function. Even within the genome of E. coli, on with either bemusement or amusement, depending the most extensively studied bacterium, less than two-on whether it is the first time they have witnessed such thirds of the ann...
