Can one hear the shape of a drum? The relationship between the shape (geometry) of a drum and its sound (its spectrum is an interesting and difficult problem to describe. In this monograph, an extensive study is made of this problem for one-dimensional drums with fractal strings. The work centers around the author's original research on a newly developed theory of complex dimensions of fractal strings. All of the material is self-contained and provide a unique geometric characterization of the Riemann hypothesis. | Fractal Geometry and Number Theory by Michel L Lapidus, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
