0 Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces: A Concise Guide

Title	:	Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces: A Concise Guide
Authors	:	Victor Andreevich Toponogov
	:	2006 Birkhauser Boston

The study of curves and surfaces forms an important part of classical differential geometry. Differential Geometry of Curves and Surfaces: A Concise Guide presents traditional material in this field along with important ideas of Riemannian geometry. The reader is introduced to curves, then to surfaces, and finally to more complex topics. Standard theoretical material is combined with more difficult theorems and complex problems, while maintaining a clear distinction between the two levels.

Key topics and features:

• Covers central concepts including curves, surfaces, geodesics, and intrinsic geometry
• Substantive material on the Aleksandrov global angle comparison theorem, which the author generalized for Riemannian manifolds (a result now known as the celebrated Toponogov Comparison Theorem, one of the cornerstones of modern Riemannian geometry)
• Contains many nontrivial and original problems, some with hints and solutions
  Standard theoretical material is combined with more difficult theorems and complex problems, while maintaining a clear distinction between the two levels

This rigorous exposition, with well-motivated topics, is ideal for advanced undergraduate, first-year graduate students seeking to enter the fascinating world of geometry, and students specializing in geometry. The material is given in two parallel streams.

0 Chiral Catalyst Immobilization and Recycling [De Vos, Vankelecom, Jacobs; 2000]

Title	:	Chiral Catalyst Immobilization and Recycling
Editors	:	Dirk De Vos, Ivo F. J. Vankelecom, Pierre A. Jacobs
Publisher	:	Wiley-VCH; 1 edition (October 15, 2000)

Homogeneous asymmetric catalysis offers reliable results and the possibility to 'tune' the catalysis on a rational basis. A pitfall, however, is that the separation of the catalyst from the starting material and products is difficult and often results in the loss of the catalytic material.

Immobilization offers a potential solution for the user of enantioselective catalysts in industrial processes and laboratories. Heterogeneous catalysis allows continuous operations, recycling of the catalyst, and an easy separation of the reaction products, reducing both waste and costs.

Chemists in academia and industry will welcome this careful selection of topics in this handbook that provides readers with practical and detailed information about the technical requirements for the immobilization of chiral catalysts, their application in synthesis, and methods for recycling.

Authors	:	Stanley M Walas
Publisher	:	CRC Press (June 1, 1995)

Reactors are the basic equipment in any chemical plant. This collection of solved problems in elementary chemical reaction kinetics describes their process design from an engineer's point of view. Each chapter begins with a brief statement of definition and theory accompanied by original problems and others modified from existing literature. The book covers numerical techniques, analysis of rate data, sizes and performances of ideal reactors, residence time distributions and performance of non-ideal models, solid catalysed reactions, behaviour of porous catalysts, and reactions between multiple phases including biochemical processes. The problems, numbering over 1000, are classified into 54 categories. Solutions are mostly presented as graphs or tables with some key theoretical developments given in problem form.
