"Identity politics" is everywhere, polarizing discourse from the campaign trail to the classroom and amplifying antagonisms in the media, both online and off. But the compulsively referenced phrase bears little resemblance to the concept as first introduced by the radical Black feminist Combahee River Collective. While the Collective articulated a political viewpoint grounded in their own position as Black lesbians with the explicit aim of building solidarity across lines of difference, identity politics is now frequently weaponized as a means of closing ranks around ever-narrower conceptions of group interests.

The author presents three distinct but related branches of science in this book: digital geometry, mathematical morphology, and discrete optimization. They are united by a common mindset as well as by the many applications where they are useful. In addition to being useful, each of these relatively new branches of science is also intellectually challenging.The book contains a systematic study of inverses of mappings between ordered sets, and so offers a uniquely helpful organization in the approach to several phenomena related to duality.To prepare the ground for discrete convexity, there are chapters on convexity in real vector spaces in anticipation of the many challenging problems coming up in digital geometry. To prepare for the study of new topologies introduced to serve in discrete spaces, there is also a chapter on classical topology.The book is intended for general readers with a modest background in mathematics and for advanced undergraduate students as well as beginning graduate students.

This book is the first to provide a comprehensive and elementary account of the new Iwasawa theory innovated via the deformation theory of modular forms and Galois representations. The deformation theory of modular forms is developed by generalizing the cohomological approach discovered in the author's 2019 AMS Leroy P Steele Prize-winning article without using much algebraic geometry.Starting with a description of Iwasawa's classical results on his proof of the main conjecture under the Kummer-Vandiver conjecture (which proves cyclicity of his Iwasawa module more than just proving his main conjecture), we describe a generalization of the method proving cyclicity to the adjoint Selmer group of every ordinary deformation of a two-dimensional Artin Galois representation.The fundamentals in the first five chapters are as follows:Many open problems are presented to stimulate young researchers pursuing their field of study.

This book is a unique book capturing defects that are frequently encountered during various fabrication phases of electronic packages. These defects have been analyzed to their root cause and mitigation techniques and presented in the book. The book includes 228 cases with more than 480 color and magnified images of the defects. These defects are covered under eight subheads, viz soldering defects, PCB defects, mounting defects, conformal coating and potting defects, EEE component defects, workmanship defects, defects due to usage of non-FFF components, and defects in CAD layout. The possible reasons for the occurrence of the defects and the methods/practices by which they can be eliminated/mitigated have also been discussed. The chapter "mounting defects" shows the correct approach in the adjacent photograph, so that the users can refer to the right procedures. The book is helpful to those who are involved in the production of electronics packages to familiarize them with the different cases shown carefully and revised frequently. Exposure to the different defects is useful to all who are working in fabrication and quality control to realize a zero-defect product sans much time and investment. The book is valuable for the technical community working for aerospace applications, industry partners in the realization of space programs, aerospace, and high-reliability institutions, various electronic fabrication agencies in the country, engineers and technicians taking up courses in high-reliability soldering and fabrication techniques, and the students.
