Control systems are an integral aspect of modern society and exist across numerous domains and applications. As technology advances more and more, the complexity of such systems continues to increase exponentially. Model-Based Design for Effective Control System Development is a critical source of...

This comprehensive account of the Gross-Zagier formula on Shimura curves over totally real fields relates the heights of Heegner points on abelian varieties to the derivatives of L-series. The formula will have new applications for the Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture and Diophantine equations. The...
