Introduction to Calculus and Analysis II/2

Produktbeschreibung

From the reviews: "These books (Introduction to Calculus and Analysis Vol.
I/II) are very well written. The mathematics are rigorous but the many
examples that are given and the applications that are treated make the
books extremely readable and the arguments easy to understand. These books
are ideally suited for an undergraduate calculus course. Each chapter is
followed by a number of interesting exercises. More difficult parts are
marked with an asterisk. There are many illuminating figures...Of interest
to students, mathematicians, scientists and engineers. Even more than that."Newsletter
on Computational and Applied Mathematics, 1991"...one of the best textbooks
introducing several generations of mathematicians to higher mathematics.
... This excellent book is highly recommended both to instructors and students.Acta
Scientiarum Mathematicarum, 1991

Biography of Richard Courant

Richard Courant was born in 1888 in a small town of what is now Poland, and died in New Rochelle, N.Y. in 1972. He received his doctorate from the legendary David Hilbert in Göttingen, where later he founded and directed its famed mathematics Institute, a Mecca for mathematicians in the twenties. In 1933 the Nazi government dismissed Courant for being Jewish, and he emigrated to the United States. He found, in New York, what he called "a reservoir of talent" to be tapped. He built, at New York University, a new mathematical Sciences Institute that shares the philosophy of its illustrious predecessor and rivals it in worldwide influence. For Courant mathematics was an adventure, with applications forming a vital part. This spirit is reflected in his books, in particular in his influential calculus text, revised in collaboration with his brilliant younger colleague, Fritz John. (P.D. Lax)

Biography of Fritz John

Fritz John was born on June 14, 1910, in Berlin. After his school years in Danzig (now Gdansk, Poland), he studied in Göttingen and received his doctorate in 1933, just when the Nazi regime came to power. As he was half-Jewish and his bride Aryan, he had to flee Germany in 1934. After a year in Cambridge, UK, he accepted a position at the University of Kentucky, and in 1946 joined Courant, Friedrichs and Stoker in building up New York University the institute that later became the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. He remained there until his death in New Rochelle on February 10, 1994. John's research and the books he wrote had a strong impact on the development of many fields of mathematics, foremost in partial differential equations. He also worked on Radon transforms, illposed problems, convex geometry, numerical analysis, elasticity theory. In connection with his work in latter field, he and Nirenberg introduced the space of the BMO-functions (bounded mean oscillations). Fritz John's work exemplifies the unity of mathematics as well as its elegance and its beauty. (J. Moser)
