Introduction to Prehomogeneous Vector Spaces (Translations of Mathematical Monographs)
(This is the first introductory book on the theory of preh...)
This is the first introductory book on the theory of prehomogeneous vector spaces, introduced in the 1970s by Mikio Sato. The author was an early and important developer of the theory and continues to be active in the field. The subject combines elements of several areas of mathematics, such as algebraic geometry, Lie groups, analysis, number theory, and invariant theory. An important objective is to create applications to number theory. For example, one of the key topics is that of zeta functions attached to prehomogeneous vector spaces; these are generalizations of the Riemann zeta function, a cornerstone of analytic number theory. Prehomogeneous vector spaces are also of use in representation theory, algebraic geometry and invariant theory. This book explains the basic concepts of prehomogeneous vector spaces, the fundamental theorem, the zeta functions associated with prehomogeneous vector spaces, and a classification theory of irreducible prehomogeneous vector spaces. It strives, and to a large extent succeeds, in making this content, which is by its nature fairly technical, self-contained and accessible. The first section of the book, ""Overview of the theory and contents of this book,"" is particularly noteworthy as an excellent introduction to the subject.

Transparent Power
(Transparent Power (“Tomei na Chikara”) became a Japanese ...)
Transparent Power (“Tomei na Chikara”) became a Japanese language non-fiction bestseller in Japan, yet for over a decade no full English translation ever saw the light of day. One reason is the unusual content — a private record of the travels and esoteric teachings of one of the greatest modern martial arts legends in Japan (in fact, the true heir to the tradition that also gave rise to the art known as Aikido). This book is not about learning physical techniques to overpower opponents. Instead, the true story of Transparent Power is about a mysterious force that one man discovered over a century ago, how it was transmitted to one of his disciples, and how the latter sensei (teacher) learned to develop it and use it at will. Although these men happened to be martial artists, they could just as easily have been dentists or lawyers or mathematicians. In fact, the author of Transparent Power is a math teacher — a respected professor at a major university whose life is firmly grounded in logic, rational thought and empirical study. But when he happened to meet one of the men who had mastered this force they called Aiki, he discovered something beyond his wildest imagination: that logic and reason come up empty-handed when faced with the blunt reality of a controllable force that can totally negate the strength of a large man and then send him flying across the room. Not a martial arts throw or a technique using muscles, but a genuine, experiential POWER that allows a 95 year-old man to toss 30 year-old bodybuilders, judo and karate masters around like beanbags. The author, Dr. Kimura, is still teaching mathematics. But his life changed completely through daily encounters with this mysterious force and with Sagawa Sensei, the only teacher alive who could command it. Transparent Power is Kimura’s record of both Sagawa’s life and teachings and what little is known about Sagawa’s own teacher, the man who discovered Aiki.

Tatsuo Kimura is a best-selling author, a mathematician of international reknown, and professor at Japan's prestigious Tsukuba University. He is also a leading student of the late Yukiyoshi Sagawa Sensei, one of the most famous disciples of Sokaku Takeda. This book is written in Japanese. However, the content of chapters two and three -- the key parts of his essay describing how to learn aiki from Sagawa Sensei -- are translated into English by the author. English-japanese bilingual format.
