By seamlessly integrating convex geometry, the combinatorics of infinite subsets of lattice points, and the arithmetic of transfer Krull monoids, this theory offers a comprehensive framework for studying convex sets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe primary motivation behind this innovative theory is its potential applications in factorization, particularly in the context of determining the uniqueness and reliability of factorizations into irreducibles, known as atoms. While factorization into atoms is not always unique, there exist various measures to quantify the extent of this failure. One of the most significant measures is the elasticity, which quantifies the ratio between the maximum and minimum number of atoms in any factorization. Having finite elasticity indicates that factorization, while not strictly unique, is not entirely arbitrary.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough the development of the material in convex geometry, this book provides a precise characterization of when finite elasticity holds for any Krull domain with finitely generated class group $G$. Furthermore, the results extend to transfer Krull monoids, broadening the scope of its applications.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is designed to cater to researchers in the field, while also being accessible to graduate students and general mathematicians with an interest in convex geometry. Its clear and concise writing style makes it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to delve into this exciting area of mathematics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 456g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 235 x 155 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783031148682\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2022\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David J.
