Focusing on Ib-TEX, this third edition emphasizes its enhanced capabilities and the integration of AMS packages for typesetting mathematics. It updates readers on the significant changes from the AMS packages version 2.0 released in 1999, while also addressing challenges in creating longer documents. New chapters cover BIBTEX, Makelndex, and the specifics of writing books, alongside an appendix on document classes. The book reflects the stability of Ib-TEX since 1996, with minor updates for non-English languages and font usage.
"Gr tzer 's 'General Lattice Theory' has become the lattice theorist 's bible. Now we have the second edition, in which the old testament is augmented by a new testament. The new testament gospel is provided by leading and acknowledged experts in their fields. This is an excellent and engaging second edition that will long remain a standard reference." --MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS
Lattice theory offers an ideal framework for understanding basic mathematical concepts. This outstanding text is written in clear, direct language and enhanced with many research problems, exercises, diagrams, and concise proofs. The author discusses historical developments as well as future directions and provides extensive end-of-chapter materials and references. 1971 edition.
Practical LaTeX covers the material that is neededto composeeveryday LaTeX documents. This accessible manual is friendly, easy to read, and is designed to be as portable as LaTeX itself. A short chapter, Mission Impossible, introduces LaTeX documents and presentations. Read these 30 pages; you should then be able to compose your own work in LaTeX. The remainder of the book delves deeper into the topics outlined in Mission Impossible while avoiding technical subjects. Chapters on presentations and illustrations are a highlight, as is the introduction of LaTeX on an iPad. Students, faculty, and professionals in the worlds of mathematics and technology will benefit greatly from this new, practical introduction to LaTeX. George Grätzer, author of More Math into LaTeX (now in its 4th edition) and First Steps in LaTeX, has been a LaTeX guru for over a quarter of century. From the reviews of More Math into LaTeX: 's'sThere are several LaTeX guides, but this one wins hands down for the elegance of its approach and breadth of coverage.'' -Amazon.com, Best of 2000, Editors Choice 's'sA very helpful and useful tool for all scientists and engineers.'' -Review of Astronomical Tools 's'sA novice reader will be able to learn the most essential features of LaTeX sufficient to begin typesetting papers within a few hours of time An experienced TeX user, on the other hand, will find a systematic and detailed discussion of all LaTeX features, supporting software, and many other advanced technical issues.'' -Reports on Mathematical Physics
This comprehensive manual serves as an essential reference for writing articles and books with mathematical formulas, established over two decades. It offers a streamlined approach to learning LaTeX, making it suitable for composing everyday documents. The guide is designed to help readers efficiently navigate the complexities of LaTeX, enhancing their ability to present mathematical content clearly and effectively.
Aimed at mathematicians, scientists, and engineers, this guide teaches users to quickly learn to write and typeset articles with mathematical formulas using LaTeX. It includes a brief introduction to LaTeX and AMS enhancements, enabling readers to prepare their first article in just a few hours. The book features sample articles and provides a structured approach to finding information through a table of contents, a Quick Finder for common word processing terms, and an index tailored to LaTeX terminology. Additionally, it offers practical demonstrations for creating a LaTeX source file.
The second edition of this authoritative text delves into Universal Algebra, highlighting its significance and applications across various disciplines, including combinatorics, geometry, and computer science. Renowned for its reliability, this book serves as a comprehensive resource for understanding the foundational concepts and their interconnections within algebra and beyond.
This self-contained exposition by George Grätzer, a leading expert in lattice theory, presents significant results from the past 70 years on congruence lattices of finite lattices, utilizing the author's unique Proof-by-Picture method. Key features include insightful discussions on constructing "nice" finite lattices with specified congruence lattices and congruence-preserving extensions. The text contains complete proofs, an extensive bibliography, an index, and over 140 illustrations. This new edition adds two parts on Planar Semimodular Lattices and The Order of Principle Congruences, reflecting research from the last decade. Suitable for a one-semester graduate course in lattice theory, it also serves as a practical reference for researchers. Reviews of the first edition highlight the book's engaging presentation of interesting results in lattice theory, making it appealing to both specialists and students. The author offers companion lectures to facilitate understanding of the Proof-by-Picture sections. The book is described as self-contained, with detailed, step-by-step proofs that blend formal details with a pedagogical approach, emphasizing the geometric aspects of congruence representations of finite lattices, making it an essential resource for mathematicians.
Viele Menschen beginnen ihren Tag mit Gymnastik, um körperlich fit zu bleiben, doch nur wenige widmen sich dem Training ihres Gehirns, dem Organ, das uns zu Menschen macht. Dieses Buch bietet Denksportaufgaben für ganzjähriges Hirnjogging. Es richtet sich an Schüler ab 14 Jahren, Erwachsene, die mehr als nur Kreuzworträtsel lösen möchten, und ältere Menschen, die geistig fit bleiben wollen. Jeder wird feststellen, dass das Denkorgan durch das Lösen der Aufgaben flexibler wird. Nehmen Sie sich jede Woche Zeit für einige Rätsel, denken Sie darüber nach und versuchen Sie, die Lösungen zu finden. Dies schärft Ihr Denkvermögen und bringt Freude an jedem Schritt. Sollten Sie eine Aufgabe nicht innerhalb von ein bis zwei Tagen lösen, schauen Sie in die Hinweise, um weiterzukommen. Es ist ein großartiges Gefühl, nach Stunden oder Tagen des Nachdenkens sagen zu können: „Heureka, ich hab’s gefunden!“ Stimmen zu dem Werk loben es als eine Lieblingslektüre für Schüler der Mittel- und Oberstufe, geschrieben von einem führenden Mathematiker in ansprechendem Stil, mit interessanten Rätseln und sorgfältig angeordneten mathematischen Problemen.
