This book deals with applications in several areas of science and technology that make use of light which carries orbital angular momentum. In most practical scenarios, the angular momentum can be decomposed into two independent contributions: the spin angular momentum and the orbital angular momentum. The orbital contribution affords a fundamentally new degree of freedom, with fascinating and wide-spread applications. Unlike spin angular momentum, which is associated with the polarization of light, the orbital angular momentum arises as a consequence of the spatial distribution of the intensity and phase of an optical field, even down to the single photon limit. Researchers have begun to appreciate its implications for our understanding of the ways in which light and matter can interact, and its practical potential in different areas of science and technology.

The authors establish the fundamental lemma for a relative trace formula. The trace formula compares generic automorphic representations of [italic capitals]GS[italic]p(4) with automorphic representations of [italic capitals]GS(4) which are distinguished with respect to a character of the Shalika subgroup, the subgroup of matrices of 2 x 2 block form ([superscript italic]g [over] [subscript capital italic]X [and] 0 [over] [superscript italic]g). The fundamental lemma, giving the equality of the orbital integrals of the unit elements of the respective Hecke algebras, amounts to a comparison of certain exponential sums arising from these two different groups.

The classic work on the evaluation of city form. What does the city's form actually mean to the people who live there? What can the city planner do to make the city's image more vivid and memorable to the city dweller? To answer these questions, Mr. Lynch, supported by studies of Los Angeles, Boston, and Jersey City, formulates a new criterion—imageability—and shows its potential value as a guide for the building and rebuilding of cities. The wide scope of this study leads to an original and vital method for the evaluation of city form. The architect, the planner, and certainly the city dweller will all want to read this book.
