In this volume, different aspects of logics for dependence and independence are discussed, including both the logical and computational aspects of dependence logic, and also applications in a number of areas, such as statistics, social choice theory, databases, and computer security. The contributing authors represent leading experts in this relatively new field, each of whom was invited to write a chapter based on talks given at seminars held at the Schloss Dagstuhl Leibniz Center for Informatics in Wadern, Germany (in February 2013 and June 2015) and an Academy Colloquium at the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (March 2014). Altogether, these chapters provide the most up-to-date look at this developing and highly interdisciplinary field and will be of interest to a broad group of logicians, mathematicians, statisticians, philosophers, and scientists. Topics covered includea comprehensive survey of many propositional, modal, and first-order variants of dependence logic;new results concerning expressive power of several variants of dependence logic with different sets of logical connectives and generalized dependence atoms;connections between inclusion logic and the least-fixed point logic;an overview of dependencies in databases by addressing the relationships between implication problems for fragments of statistical conditional independencies, embedded multivalued dependencies, and propositional logic;various Markovian models used to characterize dependencies and causality among variables in multivariate systems;applications of dependence logic in social choice theory; andan introduction to the theory of secret sharing, pointing out connections to dependence and independence logic.
This contributed volume contains fourteen papers based on selected presentations from the European Conference on Game Theory SING11-GTM 2015, held at Saint Petersburg State University in July 2015, and the Networking Games and Management workshop, held at the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Petrozvavodsk, Russia, also in July 2015.

This volume collects selected papers from the 7th High Dimensional Probability meeting held at the Institut d'Études Scientifiques de Cargèse (IESC) in Corsica, France.High Dimensional Probability (HDP) is an area of mathematics that includes the study of probability distributions and limit theorems in infinite-dimensional spaces such as Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. The most remarkable feature of this area is that it has resulted in the creation of powerful new tools and perspectives, whose range of application has led to interactions with other subfields of mathematics, statistics, and computer science. These include random matrices, nonparametric statistics, empirical processes, statistical learning theory, concentration of measure phenomena, strong and weak approximations, functional estimation, combinatorial optimization, and random graphs.The contributions in this volume show that HDP theory continues to thrive and develop new tools, methods, techniques and perspectives to analyze random phenomena.

The contributions in this book explore various contexts in which the derived category of coherent sheaves on a variety determines some of its arithmetic. This setting provides new geometric tools for interpreting elements of the Brauer group. With a view towards future arithmetic applications, the book extends a number of powerful tools for analyzing rational points on elliptic curves, e.g., isogenies among curves, torsion points, modular curves, and the resulting descent techniques, as well as higher-dimensional varieties like K3 surfaces. Inspired by the rapid recent advances in our understanding of K3 surfaces, the book is intended to foster cross-pollination between the fields of complex algebraic geometry and number theory.Contributors:· Nicolas Addington· Benjamin Antieau· Kenneth Ascher · Asher Auel· Fedor Bogomolov· Jean-Louis Colliot-Thélène· Krishna Dasaratha· Brendan Hassett· Colin Ingalls· Martí Lahoz· Emanuele Macrì· Kelly McKinnie· Andrew Obus· Ekin Ozman· Raman Parimala· Alexander Perry· Alena Pirutka· Justin Sawon· Alexei N.

This bookprovides an overview of the latest developments concerning the moduli of K3surfaces. It is aimed at algebraic geometers, but is also of interest to numbertheorists and theoretical physicists, and continues the tradition of relatedvolumes like ¿The Moduli Space of Curves¿ and ¿Moduli of Abelian Varieties,¿which originated from conferences on the islands Texel and Schiermonnikoog andwhich have become classics.K3 surfacesand their moduli form a central topic in algebraic geometry and arithmeticgeometry, and have recently attracted a lot of attention from bothmathematicians and theoretical physicists. Advances in this field often resultfrom mixing sophisticated techniques from algebraic geometry, lattice theory,number theory, and dynamical systems. The topic has received significantimpetus due to recent breakthroughs on the Tate conjecture, the study ofstability conditions and derived categories, and links with mirror symmetry andstring theory. At the same time, the theory of irreducible holomorphicsymplectic varieties, the higher dimensional analogues of K3 surfaces, hasbecome a mainstream topic in algebraic geometry.Contributors:S.

This volume consists of invited lecture notes, survey papers and original research papers from the AAGADE school and conference held in Bedlewo, Poland in September 2015. The contributions provide an overview of the current level of interaction between algebra, geometry and analysis and demonstrate the manifold aspects of the theory of ordinary and partial differential equations, while also pointing out the highly fruitful interrelations between those aspects. These interactions continue to yield new developments, not only in the theory of differential equations but also in several related areas of mathematics and physics such as differential geometry, representation theory, number theory and mathematical physics.The main goal of the volume is to introduce basic concepts, techniques, detailed and illustrative examples and theorems (in a manner suitable for non-specialists), and to present recent developments in the field, together with open problems for more advanced and experienced readers. It will be of interest to graduate students, early-career researchers and specialists in analysis, geometry, algebra and related areas, as well as anyone interested in learning new methods and techniques.
