Description
Summary:This book is an exposition of the mathematics arising from the theory of sphere packings. Considerable progress has been made on the basic problems in the field, and the most recent research is presented here. Connections with many areas of pure and applied mathematics, for example signal processing, coding theory, are thoroughly discussed.
