Publishing Addiction Science is a comprehensive guide for addiction scientists facing the complex process of contributing to scholarly journals. Written by an international group of addiction journal editors and their colleagues, it discusses how to…
Creating landscapes of investigation is a primary concern of critical mathematics education. It enables us to organise educational processes so that students and teachers are able to get involved in explorations guided by dialogical interactions. It…
This open-access book documents the issues and developments in mathematics textbook research as presented at the Fourth International Conference on Mathematics Textbook Research and Development (ICMT 4), held at Beijing Normal University (China) in…
The aim of this book is to present recent results in both theoretical and applied knot theory—which are at the same time stimulating for leading researchers in the field as well as accessible to non-experts. The book comprises recent research results…
Over the last decades, and in particular since the widespread adoption of the Internet, encounters with algorithmic procedures for ‘information retrieval’ – the activity of getting some piece of information out of a col-lection or repository of some…
Begins with an introduction to the theory of functions of a complex variable, covers complex numbers and their properties, analytic functions and the Cauchy–Riemann equations, the logarithm and other elementary functions of a complex variable,…
This open access book is about the shaping of international relations in mathematics over the last two hundred years. It focusses on institutions and organizations that were created to frame the international dimension of mathematical research.…
Large sparse linear systems of equations are ubiquitous in science, engineering and beyond. This open access monograph focuses on factorization algorithms for solving such systems. It presents classical techniques for complete factorizations that are…
This open access book provides a solution theory for time-dependent partial differential equations, which classically have not been accessible by a unified method. Instead of using sophisticated techniques and methods, the approach is elementary in…
