Proper

A concise introduction to the techniques used to prove the Baum-Connes conjecture. The Baum-Connes conjecture predicts that the K-homology of the reduced C^*-algebra of a group can be computed as the equivariant K-homology of the classifying space for proper actions. The approach is expository, but it contains proofs of many basic results on topological K-homology and the K-theory of C^*-algebras. It features a detailed introduction to Bredon homology for infinite groups, with applications to K-homology. It also contains a detailed discussion of naturality questions concerning the assembly map, a topic not well documented in the literature.

Sick and tired of being unable to communicate with their Prime Dimension, the Imperium has begun setting up LUNAR BASES to establish quantum communication arrays! This could spell doom for the multiverse of rebellions fighting back against their oppression! So fire up your shuttle, grab the closest flag to your person and strap yourselves into your favorite pair of moon boots because “J5T-1N, we have a problem” and the only way to solve it is by going to the moon!

In this self-consistent monograph, the author gathers and describes different mathematical techniques and combines all together to form practical procedures for the inverse analyses.

This monograph assesses in depth the application of recursive Bayesian filters in structural health monitoring. Although the methods and algorithms used here are well established in the field of automatic control, their application in the realm of civil engineering has to date been limited.
