You Failed Your Math Test, Comrade Einstein: Adventures And Misadventures Of Young Mathematicians - - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd -

You Failed Your Math Test, Comrade Einstein: Adventures And Misadventures Of Young Mathematicians - - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd -

This groundbreaking work features two essays written by the renowned mathematician Ilan Vardi. The first essay presents a thorough analysis of contrived problems suggested to “undesirable” applicants to the Department of Mathematics of Moscow University. His second essay gives an in-depth discussion of solutions to the Year 2000 International Mathematical Olympiad, with emphasis on the comparison of the olympiad problems to those given at the Moscow University entrance examinations.The second part of the book provides a historical background of a unique phenomenon in mathematics, which flourished in the 1970s-80s in the USSR. Specially designed math problems were used not to test students'' ingenuity and creativity but, rather, as “killer problems,” to deny access to higher education to “undesirable” applicants. The focus of this part is the 1980 essay, “Intellectual Genocide”, written by B Kanevsky and V Senderov. It is being published for the first time. Also featured is a little-known page of the Soviet history, a rare example of the oppressed organizing to defend their dignity. This is the story of the so-called Jewish People''s University, the inception of which is associated with Kanevsky, Senderov and Bella Subbotovskaya.

Statistical Tests Of Nonparametric Hypotheses: Asymptotic Theory - Odile Pons - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Statistical Tests Of Nonparametric Hypotheses: Asymptotic Theory - Odile Pons - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

An overview of the asymptotic theory of optimal nonparametric tests is presented in this book. It covers a wide range of topics: Neyman-Pearson and LeCam's theories of optimal tests, the theories of empirical processes and kernel estimators with extensions of their applications to the asymptotic behavior of tests for distribution functions, densities and curves of the nonparametric models defining the distributions of point processes and diffusions. With many new test statistics developed for smooth curves, the reliance on kernel estimators with bias corrections and the weak convergence of the estimators are useful to prove the asymptotic properties of the tests, extending the coverage to semiparametric models. They include tests built from continuously observed processes and observations with cumulative intervals.

Cold Atmospheric Plasmas: Their Use In Biology And Medicine - Spencer P Kuo - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) generators have been actively developed as a new device for medical treatment. The applications of plasma treatment include 1) disinfection, sterilization, and decontamination, which inactivates or kills bacteria, fungi, viruses and spores; 2) bleeding control, which coagulates blood swiftly; 3) wound healing, which shortens the healing period and benefits the regeneration of the epithelization of tissue to avoid scar formation; etc. Biomedical applications of CAPs are explored via either in-vitro assays, or in-vivo tests using pigs as animal models; tests include sterilization of oral pathogens and biofilm, decontamination of biological warfare agent, blood clotting and rapid control of active life-threatening hemorrhage, and post-operative observation of wound healing after plasma treatment. The conventional approaches in each application are first introduced, then the advantages of plasma treatments are discussed and demonstrated by the test results. The mechanisms of CAPs' biocidal effect, blood clotting effect, and wound healing effect are presented and discussed.

Unusual Path To High-energy Physics: From Madagascar Bush To World-class Scientist - Stephan Narison - Bog - World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd -

The author starts by counting his unsual path to High-Energy Physics (HEP) and gives a brief introduction to the field. Then, he collects his different original research works from the low-energy precision test of the Standard Model (SM) via the anomalous magnetic moment of leptons to the search for new physics at some high energy accelerators.The remaining parts of the book focus on the non-perturbative aspects of Quantum ChromoDynamics (QCD) within the ShifmanVainshtein-Zakharov (SVZ) approach. Provided that the method is used carefully, one can predict succesfully all hadron masses and couplings, the size of the quark masses and of the QCD condensates and coupling.The collection of research works is closed by some author's analysis of the COVID19 in Madagascar. The rest of the book mentions the author's social activities: Organization of the QCDMontpellier (FR) and HEPMAD-Antananarivo (MG) Conference Series, Popularization and Development of HEP and some author's Political and Social Engagements in Madagascar.
