By David A. Craven

Fusion platforms are a up to date improvement in finite staff conception and take a seat on the intersection of algebra and topology. This ebook is the 1st to deal comprehensively with this new and increasing box, taking the reader from the fundamentals of the speculation correct to the state-of-the-art. 3 motivational chapters, indicating the interplay of fusion and fusion platforms in team conception, illustration thought and topology are via six chapters that discover the speculation of fusion structures themselves. beginning with the elemental definitions, the themes coated contain: weakly basic and basic subsystems; morphisms and quotients; saturation theorems; effects approximately keep an eye on of fusion; and the neighborhood conception of fusion platforms. on the finish there's additionally a dialogue of unique fusion structures. Designed to be used as a textual content and reference paintings, this booklet is acceptable for graduate scholars and specialists alike.
