Description

Among the finest achievements in modern mathematics are two of L.S.

Pontryagin's most notable contributions: Pontryagin duality and his general theory of characters of a locally compact commutative group.

This book, the first in a four-volume set, contains the most important papers of this eminent mathematician, those which have influenced many generations of mathematicians worldwide.

They chronicle the development of his work in many areas, from his early efforts in homology groups, duality theorems, and dimension theory to his later achievements in homotopic topology and optimal control theory.
