Book Description
Twelve year old Fatou travels from West Africa to America thinking she's furthering her education. Yet, she arrives in New York City greeted by a man three times her age-someone from her village who paid dowry to be her husband. Suffering through pedophiles, deplorably cruel living conditions, and slave life job eventual pushes over the edge. Fatou refuses to be a victim and exerts control of her life by becoming part of Harlem's fast money scene. This fast paced novel examines what happens when the bonds of family and tradition fall apart. And its shows how a strong and fearless woman can hold her own surrounded by grimey men in the dangerous drug game.

Fatou, Julia, Montel
Author: Michèle Audin
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642178537
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
How did Pierre Fatou and Gaston Julia create what we now call Complex Dynamics, in the context of the early twentieth century and especially of the First World War? The book is based partly on new, unpublished sources. Who were Pierre Fatou, Gaston Julia, Paul Montel? New biographical information is given on the little known mathematician that was Pierre Fatou. How did the WW1 injury of Julia influence mathematical life in France? From the reviews of the French version: "Audin’s book is ... filled with marvelous biographical information and analysis, dealing not just with the men mentioned in the book’s title but a large number of other players, too ... [It] addresses itself to scholars for whom the history of mathematics has a particular resonance and especially to mathematicians active, or even with merely an interest, in complex dynamics. ... presents it all to the reader in a very appealing form." (Michael Berg, The Mathematical Association of America, October 2009)

The Real Fatou Conjecture
Author: Jacek Graczyk
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 9780691002583
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
In 1920, Perre Fatou expressed the conjecture that--except for special cases--all critical points of a rational map of the Riemann sphere tend to periodic orbits under iteration. This book provides a rigorous proof of the Real Fatou Conjecture--that in spite of the apparently elementary nature of a problem, its solution requires advanced tools of complex analysis.

A History of Complex Dynamics
Author: Daniel S. Alexander
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 366309197X
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
The contemporary study of complex dynamics, which has flourished so much in recent years, is based largely upon work by G. Julia (1918) and P. Fatou (1919/20). The goal of this book is to analyze this work from an historical perspective and show in detail, how it grew out of a corpus regarding the iteration of complex analytic functions. This began with investigations by E. Schröder (1870/71) which he made, when he studied Newton's method. In the 1880's, Gabriel Koenigs fashioned this study into a rigorous body of work and, thereby, influenced a lot the subsequent development. But only, when Fatou and Julia applied set theory as well as Paul Montel's theory of normal families, it was possible to develop a global approach to the iteration of rational maps. This book shows, how this intriguing piece of modern mathematics became reality.
