Produktinformationen zu „Discrete Integrable Systems / Springer Monographs in Mathematics (PDF)“
The rich subject matter in this book brings in mathematics from different domains, especially from the theory of elliptic surfaces and dynamics.The material comes from the author's insights and understanding of a birational transformation of the plane derived from a discrete sine-Gordon equation, posing the question of determining the behavior of the discrete dynamical system defined by the iterates of the map. The aim of this book is to give a complete treatment not only of the basic facts about QRT maps, but also the background theory on which these maps are based. Readers with a good knowledge of algebraic geometry will be interested in Kodaira's theory of elliptic surfaces and the collection of nontrivial applications presented here. While prerequisites for some readers will demand their knowledge of quite a bit of algebraic- and complex analytic geometry, different categories of readers will be able to become familiar with any selected interest in the book without having to make an extensive journey through the literature.
Autoren-Porträt von J. J. Duistermaat
Hans Duistermaat was a geometric analyst, who unexpectedly passed away in March 2010. His research encompassed many different areas in mathematics: ordinary differential equations, classical mechanics, discrete integrable systems, Fourier integral operators and their application to partial differential equations and spectral problems, singularities of mappings, harmonic analysis on semisimple Lie groups, symplectic differential geometry, and algebraic geometry. He was (co-)author of eleven books. Duistermaat was affiliated to the Mathematical Institute of Utrecht University since 1974 as a Professor of Pure and Applied Mathematics. During the last five years he was honored with a special professorship at Utrecht University endowed by the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences. He was also a member of the Academy since 1982. He had 23 PhD students.

Pressezitat
From the reviews:“The book … takes us on a tour of the field and provides us with a wealth of applications of various concepts coming from algebraic and analytic geometry to dynamical systems. … the book gives an exhaustive analysis of discrete algebraically integrable maps in two dimensions. The bibliography contains over 200 references, and covers recent works as well as fundamental titles, making it an inescapable encyclopaedic reference on the subject.” (Claude M. Viallet, Bulletin of the London Mathematical Society, Vol. 45 (4), August, 2013)
“This is an excellent book for graduates and researchers who have some knowledge of integrable systems and a rudimentary understanding of algebraic geometry. … Overall, this book delivers an excellent overview of a geometric interpretation of this class of discrete integrable systems, and is written in a manner that is fairly accessible to a postgraduate student or keen researcher in integrable systems.” (C. M. Ormerod, G. R. W. Quispel and J. A. G. Roberts, SIAM Review, Vol. 54 (1), 2012)
