The first was "Theory of Integration", first published in 1962 and reprinted in 1963. It includes the signature property of the gauge (or generalized Riemann) integral, that every derivative function is integrable. It provides theorems for taking limits (including differentiation) under the integral sign, Fubini's theorem, and a theory of variation. The other books are "Linear Analysis" (1967), "Lectures on the Theory of Integration" (1988), and "The General Theory of Integration" (1991).

A stand-alone introduction to specific integration problems in the probabilistic theory of stochastic calculus

Picking up where his previous book, A Modern Theory of Random Variation, left off, Gauge Integral Structures for Stochastic Calculus and Quantum Electrodynamics introduces readers to particular problems of integration in the probability-like theory of quantum mechanics.

Written as a motivational explanation of the key points of the underlying mathematical theory, and including ample illustrations of the calculus, this book relies heavily on the mathematical theory set out in the author’s previous work. That said, this work stands alone and does not require a reading of A Modern Theory of Random Variation in order to be understandable.

The picture presented to us is of a thorough-going democrat, a man of peace, almost like Gandhi. Gandhi supported Britain's Great War, didn't he?

But there is a great big black hole in the centre of this picture. The elephant in the room is the mob violence used by Redmond to capture and hold his leading position in Irish politics.

The people who were shot were not Irish "rebels" or uninvolved civilians. They were loyalist Protestants who had chosen to take up arms against the democratically elected Irish government.

In 2007 the Irish broadcasting agency RTÉ produced a television documentary ("The Killings at Coolacrease") which portrayed the executions of the two Pearson brothers as a sectarian anti-Protestant atrocity in furtherance of a land-grab, as part of an ethnic cleansing drive by the Irish independence movement against an ethnic minority. RTÉ claimed that their film was based on documentary evidence.

This book shows that the film-makers could not substantiate their case, that they did not possess the documentary evidence they claimed, and that their film was spurious propaganda.

It may take the physical form of a piece of paper on which a legal contract specifying the claim is written. Assets are frequently traded | bought and sold. We are concerned with establishing the monetary value, here and now, of such entities. Because if their correct monetary value is unknown, they cannot be traded fairly. A forward contract is a simple kind of derivative asset. It is an agreement to trade a security at a future time T for a price K called the delivery price. The party who is going to buy is said to hold the long position in the forward contract, and the party who is going to sell holds the short position. At the time of writing the forward contract, no money changes hands between the two parties, so the initial value of the forward is zero. But at some time t between the time of writing the contract and its time of expiry, the underlying security value may increase or decrease. So the value of the long position...
