Katok (The Pennsylvania State University) presents teaching material based on the Mathematics Advanced Study Semesters (MASS) program at The Pennsylvania State University. The first half of the book contains lecture notes of nonstandard courses, including a text for a semester- long course on p -adic analysis, and a shorter text on a classical area of interplay between geometry, algebra, and number theory. Also provided are descriptions of two innovative courses on geometry and classical mechanics. The second half of the book contains essays on problems of ongoing interest to mathematicians.

Hardback. Zustand: New. This book results from a unique and innovative program at Pennsylvania State University. Under the program, the ""best of the best"" students nationwide are chosen to study challenging mathematical areas under the guidance of experienced mathematicians. This program, Mathematics Advanced Study Semesters (MASS), offers an unparalleled opportunity for talented undergraduate students who are serious in the pursuit of mathematical knowledge. This volume represents various aspects of the MASS program over its six-year existence, including core courses, summer courses, students' research, and colloquium talks. The book is most appropriate for college professors of mathematics who work with bright and eager undergraduate and beginning graduate students, for such students who want to expand their mathematical horizons, and for everyone who loves mathematics and wants to learn more interesting and unusual material. The first half of the book contains lecture notes of nonstandard courses. A text for a semester-long course on $p$-adic analysis is centered around contrasts and similarities with its real counterpart.A shorter text focuses on a classical area of interplay between geometry, algebra and number theory (continued fractions, hyperbolic geometry and quadratic forms). Also provided are detailed descriptions of two innovative courses, one on geometry and the other on classical mechanics. These notes constitute what one may call the skeleton of a course, leaving the instructor ample room for innovation and improvisation. The second half of the book contains a large collection of essays on a broad spectrum of exciting topics from Hilbert's Fourth Problem to geometric inequalities and minimal surfaces, from mathematical billiards to fractals and tilings, from unprovable theorems to the classification of finite simple groups and lexicographic codes.
