Title: Handbook of Hilbert Geometry ([EBook] /) / Athanase Papadopoulos, Marc Troyanov Added Personal Name: Papadopoulos, Athanase, editor. Troyanov, Marc, editor. Publication: Zuerich, Switzerland : : European Mathematical Society Publishing House,, 2014 Physical Details: 1 online resource (460 pages) Series: IRMA Lectures in Mathematics and Theoretical Physics (IRMA) ;2523-5133 ;; 22 ISBN: 9783037196472 Mode of acces to digital resource: Mode of access: World Wide Web. System requirements: Internet Explorer 6.0 (or higher) or Firefox 2.0 (or higher). Available as searchable text in PDF format. System details note: Online access to this digital book is restricted to subscription institutions through IP address (only for SISSA internal users). Summary Note: This volume presents surveys, written by experts in the field, on various classical and the modern aspects of Hilbert geometry. They are assuming several points of view: Finsler geometry, calculus of variations, projective geometry, dynamical systems, and others. Some fruitful relations between Hilbert geometry and other subjects in mathematics are emphasized, including Teichmüller spaces, convexity theory, Perron–Frobenius theory, representation theory, partial differential equations, coarse geometry, ergodic theory, algebraic groups, Coxeter groups, geometric group theory, Lie groups and discrete group actions. The Handbook is addressed to both students who want to learn the theory and researchers working in the area.: Contents note: Weak Minkowski spaces /: Athanase Papadopoulos, Marc Troyanov --From Funk to Hilbert geometry /: Athanase Papadopoulos, Marc Troyanov --Funk and Hilbert geometries from the Finslerian viewpoint /: Marc Troyanov --On the Hilbert geometry of convex polytopes /: Constantin Vernicos --The horofunction boundary and isometry group of the Hilbert geometry /: Cormac Walsh --Characterizations of hyperbolic geometry among Hilbert geometries /: Ren Guo --Around groups in Hilbert geometry /: Ludovic Marquis --The geodesic flow of Finsler and Hilbert geometries /: Mickaël Crampon --Dynamics of Hilbert nonexpansive maps /: Anders Karlsson --Birkhoff’s version of Hilbert’s metric and its applications in analysis /: Bas Lemmens, Roger D.
