Covers a wide range of topics ranging from mathematical to philosophical logic, including logic in computer science, physics and philosophy of science. All articles are referenced to guarantee a high level of scientific content and presentation.

Because the formalism enables rigorous modeling of different scattering mechanisms in terms of self-energies, but an exact evaluation of self-energies for realistic systems is not possible, their approximation and inclusion in the quantum kinetic equations of the Green functions are elaborated.

In the first part of the book the surgical anatomy of the nose and sinuses and the basic surgical techniques are described. The detailed, step by step narratives - integrated with many intraoperative photographs - accurately convey both surgical fundamentals and nuances.

It was about 1985 when both of the authors started their work using multigrid methods for process simulation problems. There are the three "classical" ones, from our point of view: the so-called "1984 Guide" [12J by Brandt, the "Multi-Grid Methods and Applications" [49J by Hackbusch and the so-called "Fundamentals" [132J by Stiiben and Trottenberg.
