Quantum Field Theory Of Point Particles And Strings The purpose of this book is to introduce string theory without assuming any background in quantum field theory. Part I of this book follows the development of quantum field theory for point particles while Part II introduces strings. All of the tools and concepts that are needed to quantize strings are developed first for point particles. Thus Part I presents the main framework of quantum field theory and provides for a coherent development of the generalization and application of quantum field theory for point particles to strings. Part II emphasizes the quantization of the bosonic string. The treatment is most detailed in the path integral representation where the object of interest the partition function is a sum over random surfaces. The relevant mathematics of Riemann surfaces is covered. Superstrings are briefly introduced and the sum over genus 0 supersurfaces is computed. The emphasis of the book is calculational and most computations are presented in step-by-step detail. The book is unique in that it develops all three representations of quantum field theory (operator functional Schr�dinger and path integral) for point particles and strings. In many cases identical results are worked out in each representation to emphasize the representation-independent structures of quantum field theory. | Quantum Field Theory Of Point Particles And Strings GBP 130.00 1

Virtual Topology and Functor Geometry Intrinsically noncommutative spaces today are considered from the perspective of several branches of modern physics including quantum gravity string theory and statistical physics. From this point of view it is ideal to devise a concept of space and its geometry that is fundamentally noncommutative. Providing a clear introduction to noncommutative topology Virtual Topology and Functor Geometry explores new aspects of these areas as well as more established facets of noncommutative algebra. Presenting the material in an easy colloquial style to facilitate understanding the book begins with an introduction to category theory followed by a chapter on noncommutative spaces. This chapter examines noncommutative lattices noncommutative opens sheaf theory the generalized Stone space and Grothendieck topology. The author then studies Grothendieck categorical representations to formulate an abstract notion of affine open. The final chapter proposes a dynamical version of topology and sheaf theory providing at least one solution of the problem of sheafification independent of generalizations of topos theory. By presenting new ideas for the development of an intrinsically noncommutative geometry this book fosters the further unification of different kinds of noncommutative geometry and the expression of observations that involve natural phenomena.

Zemiology and Human Trafficking Following the rise of the zemiological movement the concept of social harm has attracted a great deal of scholarly attention. Using this perspective a number of scholars have sought to remove the constraining brackets surrounding criminological investigation in order to broaden its legitimate parameters of study and incorporate a wider range of un-criminalized and hidden harms. This book expands the literature on social harm by applying the concept of zemia to human trafficking investigations in Europe North America and Africa. This book draws attention not only to various structurally imbedded harms but also to the wider consequences of such harms. Drawing on a range of international legal cases on trafficking this book offers a new direction in criminological and zemiological thinking and a reimagining of criminal justice responses to harm. | Zemiology and Human Trafficking GBP 130.00 1

Fortran 2018 with Parallel Programming The programming language Fortran dates back to 1957 when a team of IBM engineers released the first Fortran Compiler. During the past 60 years the language had been revised and updated several times to incorporate more features to enable writing clean and structured computer programs. The present version is Fortran 2018. Since the dawn of the computer era there had been a constant demand for a “larger” and “faster” machine. To increase the speed there are three hurdles. The density of the active components on a VLSI chip cannot be increased indefinitely and with the increase of the density heat dissipation becomes a major problem. Finally the speed of any signal cannot exceed the velocity of the light. However by using several inexpensive processors in parallel coupled with specialized software and hardware programmers can achieve computing speed similar to a supercomputer. This book can be used to learn the modern Fortran from the beginning and the technique of developing parallel programs using Fortran. It is for anyone who wants to learn Fortran. Knowledge beyond high school mathematics is not required. There is not another book on the market yet which deals with Fortran 2018 as well as parallel programming.

Entrepreneurship Polycentrism and Elites Local Industrial Development in Modern Italy The book is a cross-section of the over all Italian development. Italy can be considered a microcosm that contains all the imbalances and territorial differences that can be observed in the European macro-areas. Its north can now be considred integrated with the more developed European continental shelf. The Centre represents a local development in transition to a more visible technological change. The late south risks accumulating more socio-economic backwardness. For these reasons we believe this volume is useful with just a few pages presenting one of the most interesting cases of local industrial development outside the mainstream of the industrial economy which saw in Fordism and Taylorism the best way for industrializaion. Here on the contrary it is argued that big fish cannot always consume the smallest one that flickers faster and its flexibility that has social roots can be an advantage in global markets. Technology appears to be the key to the future. Please note: This title is co-published with Aakar Books New Delhi.
