Title: Nonstandard Analysis in Practice ([EBook] /) / edited by Francine Diener, Marc Diener. Dewey Class: 515.8 Added Personal Name: Diener, Francine. editor. Diener, Marc. editor. Publication: Berlin, Heidelberg : : Springer Berlin Heidelberg : : Imprint: Springer,, 1995. Other name(s): SpringerLink (Online service) Physical Details: XIV, 250 p. 14 illus. : online resource. Series: Universitext,0172-5939 ISBN: 9783642577581 System details note: Online access to this digital book is restricted to subscription institutions through IP address (only for SISSA internal users) Summary Note: The purpose of this book is to provide an effective introduction to nonstandard methods. A short tutorial giving the necessary background, is followed by applications to various domains, independent from each other. These include complex dynamical systems, stochastic differential equations, smooth and algebraic curves, measure theory, the external calculus, with some applications to probability. The authors have been using Nonstandard Analysis for many years in their research. They all belong to the growing nonstandard school founded by G. Reeb, which is attracting international and interdisciplinary interest.: Contents note: 1.
