Arrangements of Hyperplanes--Sapporo 2009
Edited by: Hiroaki Terao, Hokkaido University, Japan, and Sergey Yuzvinsky, University of Oregon, Eugene
A publication of the Mathematical Society of Japan.
 Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics 2012; 570 pp; hardcover Volume: 62 ISBN-10: 4-931469-67-1 ISBN-13: 978-4-931469-67-9 List Price: US$104 Member Price: US$83.20 Order Code: ASPM/62 This book is the proceedings of the conference on Arrangements of Hyperplanes, held in August 2009 as the 2nd Mathematical Society of Japan Seasonal Institute. The modern study of arrangements of hyperplanes started in the early 1980s. Since the object of study is simple (just a finite set of hyperplanes), there are various mathematical approaches to arrangements including algebra, topology, combinatorics, singularities, integral systems, hypergeometric functions, and statistics. Since numerous world-renowned experts gave talks at the 2nd MSJ-SI, this book covers many pioneering approaches and new topics in the theory of arrangements as well as indispensable classical results. The book is recommended to any researcher or graduate student interested in arrangements of hyerplanes. Volumes in this series are freely available electronically 5 years post-publication. Published for the Mathematical Society of Japan by Kinokuniya, Tokyo, and distributed worldwide, except in Japan, by the AMS.
