Título : The Strength of Nonstandard Analysis Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: SpringerLink (Online service) ; Imme van den Berg ; Neves, Vítor Editorial: Vienna : Springer Vienna Fecha de publicación: 2007 Número de páginas: XX, 401 p. 16 illus Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-3-211-49905-4 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Mathematics Mathematical analysis Analysis (Mathematics) Partial differential equations History logic Number theory Probabilities Logic and Foundations Probability Theory Stochastic Processes Differential Equations of Sciences Clasificación: 51 Matemáticas Resumen: Nonstandard Analysis enhances mathematical reasoning by introducing new ways of expression and deduction. Distinguishing between standard and nonstandard mathematical objects, its inventor, the eminent mathematician Abraham Robinson, settled in 1961 the centuries-old problem of how to use infinitesimals correctly in analysis. Having also worked as an engineer, he saw not only that his method greatly simplified mathematically proving and teaching, but also served as a powerful tool in modelling, analyzing and solving problems in the applied sciences, among others by effective rescaling and by infinitesimal discretizations. This book reflects the progress made in the forty years since the appearance of Robinson’s revolutionary book Nonstandard Analysis: in the foundations of mathematics and logic, number theory, statistics and probability, in ordinary, partial and stochastic differential equations and in education. The contributions are clear and essentially self-contained Nota de contenido: Foundations -- The strength of nonstandard analysis -- The virtue of simplicity -- Analysis of various practices of referring in classical or non standard mathematics -- Stratified analysis? -- ERNA at work -- The Sousa Pinto approach to nonstandard generalised functions -- Neutrices in more dimensions -- Number theory -- Nonstandard methods for additive and combinatorial number theory. A survey -- Nonstandard methods and the Erd?s-Turán conjecture -- Statistics, probability and measures -- Nonstandard likelihood ratio test in exponential families -- A finitary approach for the representation of the infinitesimal generator of a markovian semigroup -- On two recent applications of nonstandard analysis to the theory of financial markets -- Quantum Bernoulli experiments and quantum stochastic processes -- Applications of rich measure spaces formed from nonstandard models -- More on S-measures -- A Radon-Nikodým theorem for a vector-valued reference measure -- Differentiability of Loeb measures -- Differential systems and equations -- The power of Gâteaux differentiability -- Nonstandard Palais-Smale conditions -- Averaging for ordinary differential equations and functional differential equations -- Path-space measure for stochastic differential equation with a coefficient of polynomial growth -- Optimal control for Navier-Stokes equations -- Local-in-time existence of strong solutions of the n-dimensional Burgers equation via discretizations -- Infinitesimals and education -- Calculus with infinitesimals -- Pre-University Analysis En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-211-49905-4 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=34591 The Strength of Nonstandard Analysis [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Imme van den Berg ; Neves, Vítor . - Vienna : Springer Vienna, 2007 . - XX, 401 p. 16 illus : online resource.

The distinguishing feature of most of these applications is that the corresponding dual tableaux are built in a relational language which provides useful means of presentation of the theories.

Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity covers a broad spectrum of results in logic and set theory that are relevant to the foundations, as well as the results in computational complexity and the interdisciplinary area of proof complexity. The author presents his ideas on how these areas are connected, what are the most fundamental problems and how they should be approached. In particular, he argues that complexity is as important for foundations as are the more traditional concepts of computability and provability. Emphasis is on explaining the essence of concepts and the ideas of proofs, rather than presenting precise formal statements and full proofs. Each section starts with concepts and results easily explained, and gradually proceeds to more difficult ones. The notes after each section present some formal definitions, theorems and proofs. Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity is aimed at graduate students of all fields of mathematics who are interested in logic, complexity and foundations. It will also be of interest for both physicists and philosophers who are curious to learn the basics of logic and complexity theory Nota de contenido: Mathematician’s world -- Language, logic and computations -- Set theory -- Proofs of impossibility -- The complexity of computations -- Proof complexity -- Consistency, Truth and Existence -- References En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-00119-7 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=32452 Logical Foundations of Mathematics and Computational Complexity : A Gentle Introduction [documento electrónico] / Pudlák, Pavel ; SpringerLink (Online service) . - Heidelberg : Springer International Publishing : Imprint: Springer, 2013 . - XIV, 695 p. 49 illus., 4 illus. in color : online resource. - (Springer Monographs in Mathematics, ISSN 1439-7382) .
