This book is an exposition of the theoretical foundations of hyperbolic manifolds. It is intended to be used both as a textbook and as a reference. Particular emphasis has been placed on readability and completeness of ar gument. The treatment of the material is for the most part elementary and self-contained. The reader is assumed to have a basic knowledge of algebra and topology at the first-year graduate level of an American university. The book is divided into three parts. The first part, consisting of Chap ters 1-7, is concerned with hyperbolic geometry and basic properties of discrete groups of isometries of hyperbolic space. The main results are the existence theorem for discrete reflection groups, the Bieberbach theorems, and Selberg's lemma. The second part, consisting of Chapters 8-12, is de voted to the theory of hyperbolic manifolds. The main results are Mostow's rigidity theorem and the determination of the structure of geometrically finite hyperbolic manifolds. The third part, consisting of Chapter 13, in tegrates the first two parts in a development of the theory of hyperbolic orbifolds. The main results are the construction of the universal orbifold covering space and Poincare's fundamental polyhedron theorem.

A discussion of certain advanced topics in operator theory, providing the necessary background while assuming only standard senior-first year graduate courses in general topology, measure theory, and algebra. Each chapter ends with source notes which suggest additional reading along with comments on who proved what and when, followed by a large number of problems of varying difficulty. This new edition will appeal to a whole new generation of students seeking an introduction to this topic.

This selection of papers of Ilya Piatetski-Shapiro represents almost 50 years of his mathematical activity. Included are many of his major papers in harmonic analysis, number theory, discrete groups, bounded homogeneous domains, algebraic geometry, automorphic forms, and automorphic L-functions. The papers in the volume are intended as a representative and accurate reflection of both the breadth and depth of Piatetski-Shapiro's work in mathematics. Some of his early works, such as those on the prime number theorem and on sets of uniqueness for trigonometric series, appear for the first time in English. Also included are several commentaries by his close colleagues. This volume offers an elegant representation of the contributions made by this renowned mathematician.
