EMathematics — Logic

Introduction to the Foundations of Mathematics Second Edition Raymond L. Wilder

This classic undergraduate text by an eminent educator acquaints students with the fundamental concepts and methods of mathematics. In addition to intro-ducing many noteworthy historical figures from the 18th through the mid-20th centuries, it examines the axiomatic method, set theory, infinite sets, the linear continuum and the real number system, groups, intuitionism, formal sys-tems, mathematical logic, and other topics.

Reprint of the John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1965 second edition. 352pp. 5 3/8 x 8 1/2.

Studies in Logic and Probability George Boole

The most mature theories of George Boole, inventor of Boolean logic, are brought forward in this authoritative account. It ranges from The Mathematical Analysis of Logic to Boole’s final works. His 1854 publication, The Laws of Thought, formed the most systematic statement of his ideas — these further studies, incomplete at the time of his death, were intended for a follow-up volume.

Reprint of the Watts & Co., London, 1952 edition. 512pp. 5 3/8 x 8 1/2.

Model Theory Third Edition C. C. Chang and Jerome H. Keisler

Model theory deals with a branch of mathematical logic showing connections between a formal language and its interpretations or models. Extensively updated and corrected in 1990 to accommodate the most recent developments in model theoretic methods, including clas-sification theory and nonstandard analysis, this third edition of the bestselling classic added entirely new sections, exer-cises, and references.

Reprint of the North Holland Press, Amsterdam, 1990 edition. 672pp. 6 1/8 x 9 1/4.

Zermelo’s Axiom of Choice Its Origins, Development, and Influence Gregory H. Moore

This unique study chronicles the work of mathematician Ernst Zermelo (1871–1953) and his development of set theory’s crucial principle, the axiom of choice. The text covers the axiom’s formulation during the early 20th century, the controversy it engendered, and its current central place in set theory and mathematical logic. Moore provides a new Introduction concerning develop-ments since the original 1982 publication.

Integration, Measure and Probability H. R. Pitt

This text provides undergraduate mathematics students with an introduction to the modern theory of probability as well as the roots of the theory’s mathematical ideas and techniques. Centered around the concept of measure and integration, the work is applicable to other branches of analysis, and explores more specialized topics, including convergence theorems and random sequences and functions.

Reprint of the Hafner Publishing Company, New York, 1963 edition. 128pp. 5 3/8 x 8 1/2.

Topological Vector Spaces and Distributions John Horvath

The precise, careful exposition of this text’s first three chapters, augmented with many examples and relevant exercises, provides an excellent summary of the modern theory of locally convex modern spaces. The fourth and final chapter develops the theory of distributions in relation to convolutions, tensor products, and Fourier transforms. “The most readable introduction to the theory of vector spaces available in English and possibly any other language.” — J. L. B. Cooper, MathSciNet Review.

Reprint of the Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, Reading, Massachusetts, 1966 edition. 464pp. 6 1/8 x 9 1/4.

Complex Integration and Cauchy’s Theorem G. N. Watson

This brief monograph by one of the great mathematicians of the early 20th century offers a single-volume compilation of propositions employed in proofs of Cauchy’s theorem. Developing an arithmetical basis that avoids geometrical intu-itions, Watson also provides a brief account of the various applications of the theorem to the evaluation of definite integrals.

Reprint of the Hafner Publishing Company, New York, 1960 edition. 96pp. 5 3/8 x 8 1/2.

Constructive Real Analysis Allen A. Goldstein

This advanced undergraduate and graduate-level text introduces students of mathematics, science, and technology to the methods of applied functional analysis and applied convexity. It consists of three main sections: roots and extremal problems, constraints, and infinite dimensional prob-lems. Topics include iterations and fixed points, metric spaces, nonlinear programming, polyhe-dral convex programming, linear spaces and convex sets, and applications to integral equations.

Abstract Methods in Partial Differential Equations Robert W. Carroll

Detailed and self-contained, this treatment is directed to gradu-ate students with some previous exposure to classical partial dif-ferential equations. The author examines a variety of modern abstract methods in partial differ-ential equations, especially in the area of abstract evolution equa-tions. Additional topics include the theory of nonlinear mono-tone operators applied to elliptic and variational problems.

Reprint of the Harper & Row, New York, 1969 edition. 384pp. 6 1/8 x 9 1/4.

Differential Equations F. G.Tricomi

F. G. Tricomi based this practi-cal and concise teaching text on his extensive experience as an educator, covering the essen-tial background for advanced courses in mathematical analy-sis. Topics include the existence and uniqueness theorem, charac-teristics of first-order equations, boundary problems for second-order linear equations, asymp-totic methods, and differential equations in the complex field.

An Intro duction to the Theory of Groups Paul Alexandroff

This introductory exposition of group theory by an eminent Russian mathematician is particu-larly suited to undergraduates, developing material of fundamental importance in a clear and rigorous fashion. A wealth of simple exam-ples, primarily geometrical, illustrate the primary concepts. Exercises at the end of each chapter provide additional reinforcement.

Reprint of the Hafner Publishing Company, New York, 1959 edition. 128pp. 5 3/8 x 8 1/2.

Levels of Infinity Selected Writings on Mathematics and Philosophy Hermann WeylEdited and with an Introduction by Peter Pesic

Associated with Princeton’s Institute for Advanced Study and the ETH, Zurich, Hermann Weyl (1885–1955) was a giant of modern mathematics. This original anthol-ogy collects 10 of his less-technical writings that address the broader scope and implications of mathematics. Covering logic, relativity the-ory, and reflections on the work of David Hilbert, most of these works have been long unavailable or not previously published in book form.

Dover Original. 256pp. 6 1/8 x 9 1/4.

Regular Algebra and Finite Machines John Horton Conway

World-famous mathematician John Horton Conway based this classic text on a 1966 course he taught at Cambridge University. His topics include Moore’s theory of experiments, Kleene’s theory of regular events and expressions, Kleene algebras, the differ-ential calculus of events, factors and the factor matrix, and the theory of operators. Additional subjects include context-free languages, com-municative regular algebra, axiomatic questions, and logical prob-lems. Solutions to problems appear at the end.
