The monodromy group The monodromy group Henryk Żołądek In singularity theory and algebraic geometry the monodromy group is embodied in the Picard-Lefschetz formula and the Picard-Fuchs equations. It has applications in the weakened 16th Hilbert problem a… OL12089539W
Algebraic methods in unstable homotopy theory Algebraic methods in unstable homotopy theory Joseph Neisendorfer "The most modern and thorough treatment of unstable homotopy theory available. The focus is on those methods from algebraic topology which are needed in the presentation of results, proven by Cohen, … OL15499172W
Algebraic topology from a homotopical viewpoint Algebraic topology from a homotopical viewpoint Carlos Prieto,Marcelo Aguilar,Samuel Gitler "The purpose of this book is to introduce algebraic topology using the novel approach of homotopy theory, an approach with clear applications in algebraic geometry as understood by Lawson and Voevods… OL16989424W
Topological Crystallography Topological Crystallography Toshikazu Sunada <p>Geometry in ancient Greece is said to have originated in the curiosity of mathematicians about the shapes of crystals, with that curiosity culminating in the classification of regular convex polyh… OL19907346W
Vector Bundles and Their Applications Vector Bundles and Their Applications Glenys Luke The book is devoted to the basic notions of vector bundles and their applications. The focus of attention is towards explaining the most important notions and geometric constructions connected with t… OL19909348W
A guide to the classification theorem for compact surfaces A guide to the classification theorem for compact surfaces Jean H. Gallier This welcome boon for students of algebraic topology cuts a much-needed central path between other texts whose treatment of the classification theorem for compact surfaces is either too formalized an… OL23276104W
