Discrete Geometry and Topology (on the 100th Anniversary of the Death of Boris Nikolaevich Delone): On the 100th Anniversary of the Birth of Boris ... of the Steklov Institute of Mathematics) - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

This collection of papers honours the 100th anniversary of the birth of Boris Nikolaevich Delone, whose mathematical interests centered on the geometry of positive quadratic forms. After an initial paper presenting an account of Delone's life, including hi scientific work, the book centers on discrete geometry and combinatorics. Topics included are combinatorial-topological problems arising in the statistical Ising model, the disposition of finite point sets in convex bodies of high dimension under certain conditions, and investigations of regular partitionings of spaces of constant curvature.
