B.Pasternak.Spektorsky In the spring of 1999 the police found me lying unconscious with a broken forehead next to my bike in the outskirts of Paris, and delivered me to a hospital. It took a few weeks for French doctors to bring me to consciousness. But I did not recognize my son and said about my wife: this woman says that she is my wife. A doctor asked me how many years we had been married. I answered correctly, twenty four, and the doctor wrote down: arithmetical abilities are preserved. Later, French doctors told me that with such a trauma any Frenchman would succumb immediately. But then they added: Russians are very tough so you should live several months more. In a Western textbook I had read regarding effects of poisons: as for alcohol the lethal dose for Russians is several times higher. Perhaps the same applies to traumas.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49526661447953,"sku":"CIN3540287345G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51317242724625,"sku":"GOR006010247","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52479328485649,"sku":"NLS9783540287346","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3540287345.jpg?v=1750838047"},{"product_id":"mathematiques-pour-l-informatique-book-vladimir-i-arnold-9782225845574","title":"Mathématiques pour l'informatique","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49565845553425,"sku":"GOR012966856","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/2225845573.jpg?v=1750998800"},{"product_id":"catastrophe-theory-book-vladimir-i-arnold-9783540161998","title":"Catastrophe Theory","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom The Reviews: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis short book, which is a translation from the Russian, provides a concise, non-mathematical review of the less controversial results in catastrophe theory.

The articles include a list of problems in dynamical systems, a discussion of the problem of (in)solvability of equations, papers on symplectic geometry of caustics and contact  geometry of wave fronts, comments on problems of A.D.Sakharov, as well as a rather unusual paper on projective topology. The interested reader will certainly enjoy Arnold’s 1994 paper on mathematical problems in physics with the opening by-now famous phrase “Mathematics is the name for those domains of theoretical physics that are temporarily unfashionable.”      The book will be of interest to the wide audience  from college students to professionals in mathematics or physics and in the history of science.

Für Studierende der Mathematik und Physik ist dieses Buch ein Muss.   Wie alle Bücher Vladimir Arnolds ist dieses Buch voller geometrischer Erkenntnisse. Arnold illustriert jeden Grundsatz mit einer Abbildung. Das Buch behandelt die elementarsten Teile des Fachgebiets and beschränkt sich hauptsächlich auf das Cauchy-Problem und das Neumann-Problems für die klassischen Lineargleichungen der mathematischen Physik, insbesondere auf die Laplace-Gleichung und die Wellengleichung, wobei die Wärmeleitungsgleichung und die Korteweg-de-Vries-Gleichung aber ebenfalls diskutiert werden. Die physikalische Intuition wird besonders hervorgehoben. Eine große Anzahl von Problemen ist übers ganze Buch verteilt, und ein ganzer Satz von Aufgaben findet sich am Ende.    Was dieses Buch so einzigartig macht, ist das besondere Talent Arnolds, ein Thema aus einer neuen, frischen Perspektive zu beleuchten. Er lüftet gerne den Schleier der Verallgemeinerung, der so viele mathematische Texte umgibt, und enthüllt die im wesentlichen einfachen, intuitiven Ideen, die dem Thema zugrunde liegen.

The “Arnoldfest\" conference celebrating 60th anniversary of V.Arnold took place at the Fields Institute and University of Toronto, Canada, in 1997,  and Arnold's lectures at that conference are included in this volume. In the 1990s Arnold got increasingly concerned with the decay of science and math education in many Western countries, and his publications fighting “the victorious march of the antiscientific revolution\" (as he phrased it in one of his papers) are collected in this volume as well. Some of Arnold's writings stimulated others to write supplements with more detail, and the volume also includes the notes of A.M.Vershik, J.K.Moser, and B.A.Khesin. Finally, a glimpse of Arnold's personality can also be appreciated in a little gem, his short article devoted to resolving the mystery of the origin of the epigraph to “Eugene Onegin\" by A.S.

In addition to its well-known achievements, Russian mathematics established a unique style of research based on the existence of prominent mathematical schools. These schools were headed by recognized leaders, who became famous due to their talents and outstanding contributions to science. The present collection is intended primarily to gather in one book the t- timonies of the participants in the development of mathematics over the past century. In their articles the authors have expressed their own points of view on the events that took place. The editors have not felt that they had a right to make any changes, other than stylistic ones, or to add any of their own commentary to the text. Naturally, the points of view of the authors should not be construed as those of the editors. The list of mathematicians invited to participate in the presentedition was quite long. Unfortunately, some of the authors for various reasons did not accept our invitation, and regretfully a number of areas of research are not fully represented here. Nevertheless, the material that has been assembled is of great value not only in the scientific sense, but also in its historical context. We wish to express our gratitude to all the authors who contributed.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52409988153617,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52409988710673,"sku":"NLS9783540232353","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540232353.jpg?v=1758776533"},{"product_id":"mathematical-aspects-of-classical-and-celestial-mechanics-book-vladimir-i-arnold-9783642066474","title":"Mathematical Aspects of Classical and Celestial Mechanics","description":"In this book we describe the basic principles, problems, and methods of cl- sical mechanics.

(January 2006)   Like all of Vladimir Arnold's books, this book is full of geometric insight. Arnold illustrates every principle with a figure. This book aims to cover the most basic parts of the subject and confines itself largely to the Cauchy and Neumann problems for the classical linear equations of mathematical physics, especially Laplace's equation and the wave equation, although the heat equation and the Korteweg-de Vries equation are also discussed. Physical intuition is emphasized. A large number of problems are sprinkled throughout the book, and a full set of problems from examinations given in Moscow are included at the end. Some of these problems are quite challenging!   What makes the book unique is Arnold's particular talent at holding a topic up for examination from a new and fresh perspective. He likes to blow away the fog of generality that obscures so much mathematical writing and reveal the essentially simple intuitive ideas underlying the subject. No other mathematical writer does this quite so well as Arnold.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52583850279185,"sku":"NLS9783540404484","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9783540404484.jpg?v=1761048265"},{"product_id":"vladimir-i-arnoldcollected-works-book-vladimir-i-arnold-9783031048036","title":"VLADIMIR I.

During this period Arnold's interests covered Vassiliev’s theory of invariants and knots, invariants and bifurcations of plane curves,   combinatorics of Bernoulli, Euler and Springer numbers,   geometry of wave fronts, the Berry phase and quantum Hall effect.    The articles include a list of problems in dynamical systems, a discussion of the problem of (in)solvability of equations, papers on symplectic geometry of caustics and contact  geometry of wave fronts, comments on problems of A.D.Sakharov, as well as a rather unusual paper on projective topology. The interested reader will certainly enjoy Arnold’s 1994 paper on mathematical problems in physics with the opening by-now famous phrase “Mathematics is the name for those domains of theoretical physics that are temporarily unfashionable.”      The book will be of interest to the wide audience  from college students to professionals in mathematics or physics and in the history of science.
