PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Francesco Maggi is Professor of Mathematics at the University of Texas at Austin. His research interests include the calculus of variations, partial differential equations, and optimal mass transport. He is the author of Sets of Finite Perimeter and Geometric Variational Problems published by Cambridge University Press.
'Francesco Maggi's book is a detailed and extremely well written explanation of the fascinating theory of Monge-Kantorovich optimal mass transfer. I especially recommend Part IV's discussion of the 'linear' cost problem and its subtle mathematical resolution.' Lawrence C. Evans, University of California, Berkeley 'Over the last three decades, optimal transport has revolutionized the mathematical analysis of inequalities, differential equations, dynamical systems, and their applications to physics, economics, and computer science. By exposing the interplay between the discrete and Euclidean settings, Maggi's book makes this development uniquely accessible to advanced undergraduates and mathematical researchers with a minimum of prerequisites. It includes the first textbook accounts of the localization technique known as needle decomposition and its solution to Monge's centuries old cutting and filling problem (1781). This book will be an indispensable tool for advanced undergraduates and mathematical researchers alike.' Robert McCann, University of Toronto
