Inhaltsangabe

Complex variables is a precise, elegant, and captivating subject. Presented from the point of view of modern work in the field, this new book addresses advanced topics in complex analysis that verge on current areas of research. The author adroitly weaves these varied topics to reveal a number of delightful interactions. Perhaps more importantly, the topics are presented with an understanding and explanation of their interrelations with other important parts of mathematics: harmonic analysis, differential geometry, partial differential equations, potential theory, abstract algebra, and invariant theory. Although the book examines complex analysis from many different points of view, it uses geometric analysis as its unifying theme.

This methodically designed book contains a rich collection of exercises, examples, and illustrations within each individual chapter, concluding with an extensive bibliography of monographs, research papers, and a thorough index. Seeking to capture the imagination of advanced undergraduate and graduate students with a basic background in complex analysis –and also to spark the interest of seasoned workers in the field – the book imparts a solid education both in complex analysis and in how modern mathematics works.

Steven G. Krantz is one of Springer's and Birkhäuser's most prolific and popular authors in the field of functional analysis, geometric analysis, and partial differential equations. Krantz is the series editor of Birkhäuser's ' Cornerstones' graduate text series and the founder and editor-in-chief of "The Journal of Geometric Analysis", considered a society journal previously published by the AMS and often acts as an advisor to several senior editors at Springer/ Birkhäuser . He is also editor-in-chief of the "Journal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications". Professor Krantz is currently the editor-in-chief of the AMS Notices and also edits for "The American Mathematical Monthly", "Complex Analysis and Elliptical Equations", and "The Bulletin of the American Mathematical Monthly". Krantz is also known for his wide breadth of expertise in several areas of mathematics such as harmonica analysis, differential geometry, and Lie groups, to name a few. Notable awards include Chauvenet Prize (1992), Beckenbach Book Award (1994), Kemper Prize (1994), Outstanding Academic Book Award (1998), Washington University Faculty Mentor Award (2007).

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Complex variables is a precise, elegant, and captivating subject. Presented from the point of view of modern work in the field, this new book addresses advanced topics in complex analysis that verge on current areas of research, including invariant geometry, the Bergman metric, the automorphism groups of domains, harmonic measure, boundary regularity of conformal maps, the Poisson kernel, the Hilbert transform, the boundary behavior of harmonic and holomorphic functions, the inhomogeneous Cauchy–Riemann equations, and the corona problem.

The author adroitly weaves these varied topics to reveal a number of delightful interactions. Perhaps more importantly, the topics are presented with an understanding and explanation of their interrelations with other important parts of mathematics: harmonic analysis, differential geometry, partial differential equations, potential theory, abstract algebra, and invariant theory.
