Fractal Geometry And Applications: A Jubilee Of Benoit Mandelbrot : Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics, Analysis, Number Theory, and Dynamical systems

by Michel L. Lapidus (Editor), Machiel Van Frankenhuysen, Benoît B. Mandelbrot

A mixture of tutorial articles, research expository papers, and original research articles represent a special session at the January 2002 American Mathematical Society in San Diego, California, which celebrated the jubilee of Mandlebrot's thesis. The collection is intended to be of use to experts and non-experts (including graduate students and postdocs), to demonstrate the vitality of the field, and to motivate research on open problems. Contributions are arranged in two volumes, in sections on analysis, number theory, dynamical systems, multifractals, probability and statistical mechanics, and applications.
