Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Die Erforschung von Tropenkrankheiten rückt immer stärker in den Mittelpunkt des Interesses von Wissenschaft, Politik und Öffentlichkeit. Tropenkrankheiten werden immer häufiger zu einer gesundheitlichen, wirtschaftlichen und sozialen Belastung für viele Länder. Massnahmen zur Prävention und Therapie werden gefordert. Die Molekularbiologie trägt dazu bei, Infektionsmechanismen auf molekularer Ebene zu klären und so neue Therapieformen zu entwickeln. Das Buch beleuchtet ausgewählte wichtige Tropenkrankheiten (inklusive sogenannter ¿neglected diseases') neu auch aus dem Blickwinkel der Molekularbiologie. Jeder Krankheit ist ein Kapitel gewidmet, übersichtlich strukturiert und leicht verständlich geschrieben. Glossar, Literaturverzeichnis und Stichwortregister runden das Buch ab. Die sorgfältig recherchierten Texte stellen eine fundierte Informationsquelle für interessierte Kreise aus Medizin und Biologie sowie Tropenreisende, Studenten, Lehrer und alle, die sich für Tropenkrankheiteninteressieren, dar.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 164 pp. Deutsch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -Pseudoanalytic function theory generalizes and preserves many crucial features of complex analytic function theory. The Cauchy-Riemann system is replaced by a much more general first-order system with variable coefficients which turns out to be closely related to important equations of mathematical physics. This relation supplies powerful tools for studying and solving Schrödinger, Dirac, Maxwell, Klein-Gordon and other equations with the aid of complex-analytic methods.The book is dedicated to these recent developments in pseudoanalytic function theory and their applications as well as to multidimensional generalizations.It is directed to undergraduates, graduate students and researchers interested in complex-analytic methods, solution techniques for equations of mathematical physics, partial and ordinary differential equations.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 200 pp. Englisch.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware -A basic problem in geometry is to nd canonical metrics on smooth manifolds. Such metrics can be speci ed, for instance, by curvature conditions or extremality properties, and are expected to contain basic information on the topology of the underlying manifold. Constant curvature metrics on surfaces are such canonical metrics. Their distinguished role is emphasized by classical uniformization theory. Amorerecentcharacterizationofthesemetrics describes them ascriticalpoints of the determinant functional for the Laplacian.The key tool here is Polyakov¿sva- ationalformula for the determinant. In higher dimensions, however,it is necessary to further restrict the problem, for instance, to the search for canonical metrics in conformal classes. Here two metrics are considered to belong to the same conf- mal class if they di er by a nowhere vanishing factor. A typical question in that direction is the Yamabe problem ([165]), which asks for constant scalar curvature metrics in conformal classes. In connection with the problem of understanding the structure of Polyakov type formulas for the determinants of conformally covariant di erential operators in higher dimensions, Branson ([31]) discovered a remarkable curvature quantity which now is called Branson¿s Q-curvature. It is one of the main objects in this book.Springer Basel AG in Springer Science + Business Media, Heidelberger Platz 3, 14197 Berlin 508 pp. Englisch.

The conference, which was dedicated to the 100th anniversary ofthebirthofMarkKrein,oneofthegreatestmathematiciansofthe20thcentury, was held in Odessa, Ukraine, on April 9¿14, 2007. The conference focused on the main ideas, methods, results, and achievements of M. G. Krein. This rstvolumeisdevotedtotheoperatortheoryandrelatedtopics. Itopens withthebiographypapersaboutM. G.
