The ISAAC (International Society for Analysis, its Applications and Computation) Congress, which has been held every second year since 1997, covers the major progress in analysis, applications and computation in recent years. In this proceedings volume, plenary lectures highlight the recent research results, while 17 sessions organized by well-known specialists reflect the state of the art of important subfields. This volume concentrates on partial differential equations, function spaces, operator theory, integral transforms and equations, potential theory, complex analysis and generalizations, inverse problems, functional differential and difference equations and integrable systems.

Nearly a hundred years have passed since Viggo Brun invented his famous sieve, and the use of sieve methods is constantly evolving. As probability and combinatorics have penetrated the fabric of mathematical activity, sieve methods have become more versatile and sophisticated and in recent years have played a part in some of the most spectacular mathematical discoveries. Many arithmetical investigations encounter a combinatorial problem that requires a sieving argument, and this tract offers a modern and reliable guide in such situations. The theory of higher dimensional sieves is thoroughly explored, and examples are provided throughout. A Mathematica® software package for sieve-theoretical calculations is provided on the authors' website. To further benefit readers, the Appendix describes methods for computing sieve functions. These methods are generally applicable to the computation of other functions used in analytic number theory. The appendix also illustrates features of Mathematica® which aid in the computation of such functions.

Proceedings of the International Conference on Number Theory organized by the Stefan Banach International Mathematical Center in Honor of the 60th Birthday of Andrzej Schinzel, Zakopane, Poland, June 30-July 9, 1997.

This book consists of papers presented at the first three meetings of the Boise Extravaganza in Set Theory (BEST) at Boise State University, Idaho, in 1992, 1993, and 1994. Articles in this volume present recent results in several areas of set theory.
