Wigner's quasi-probability distribution function in phase space is a special (Weyl) representation of the density matrix. It has been useful in describing quantum transport in quantum optics; nuclear ...

During the last few years, considerable interest has been focused on the phase that waves accumulate when the equations governing the waves vary slowly. The recent flurry of activity was set off by ...

The book intends to give a modern presentation of the classical Markov and Lagrange spectrum, which are fundamental objects from the theory of Diophantine approximations and of their several ...

This is a textbook for graduate and upper level undergraduate students in mathematics, computer science, communication engineering and other fields. The explicit construction of finite fields and the ...

The study of the magnetic response of Josephson junction networks can be useful in outlining the behaviour of existing superconducting electronic devices, in conceiving new types of magnetic sensors, ...

The focus of this volume is to describe and analyse the evolution of the South China Sea Workshops. The author is optimistic about the prospects of these workshops as confidence-building mechanisms.

This book offers an introduction to wavelet theory and provides the essence of wavelet analysis — including Fourier analysis and spectral analysis; the maximum overlap discrete wavelet transform; ...

In the past few years, there has been a rapidly growing interest in the properties of spin waves (or magnons) in ordered magnetic materials. These are the low-lying excitations that characterize th ...

IJHSES reports on new materials, device structures, processing technologies, circuit and system architectures of high speed or high-performance devices, circuits and systems.

This book opens a new avenue to an engendering field of applied physics, located at the “crossing” of modern photonics, electromagnetics, acoustics and material science. It also highlights the concept ...

IJSSD is a forum for research on stability and dynamics of land-based structures, aerospace structures, marine structures, as well as biostructures and micro- and nano-structures ...
