Kai Köhler's 'Differential geometry and homogeneous spaces' (a translation from the German, which is reviewed in detail in https://zbmath.org/1306.53002) "is unique in modern differential geometry by its way of writing, by the multiple examples and exercises", says Petre Stavre's review https://zbmath.org/7921092.
"The book reaches the theory of fibre bundles, in particular the tangent bundle, and the theory of generalized relativity."
Alexander Aitken https://zbmath.org/authors/aitken.alexander-craig, known for his work in numerical analysis, was #botd 130 years ago. 'On Bernoulli’s numerical solution of algebraic equations' was reviewed in https://zbmath.org/52.0098.05.

Daniel Duverney's 'An introduction to hypergeometric functions' "is presented as a guide for researchers and students interested on special functions", says Roberto S. Costas-Santos's review https://zbmath.org/7925393.
"Overall, this textbook is a valuable resource for students and researchers looking to grasp the theory and applications of hypergeometric series, offering both deep theoretical insights and practical tools for further exploration in the field."
Shouchuan Hu/Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou's 'Research topics in analysis. Volume II. Applications'
"is the follow-up volume to [https://zbmath.org/1514.46001], says Dirk Werner's review https://zbmath.org/7925437.
"Unlike its predecessor it rather has the character of a research monograph than that of a textbook; for example, no exercises are included."
"Along with its predecessor [it] covers a lot of ground in abstract analysis and will be a useful resource for many readers."
Désiré André https://zbmath.org/authors/andre.desire, known for his work on combinatorics, was #botd 185 years ago.
"Sur les permutations alternées" was reviewed in https://zbmath.org/13.0152.02.
Augustin Banyaga/David Hurtubise/Peter Spaeth's 'Twisted Morse complexes' "provides a detailed exploration of Morse homology and cohomology with local coefficients, known as `twisted Morse homology and cohomology'", says Mohsen Timoumi's review https://zbmath.org/7941712.
"It connects algebraic and differential topology, showing that a finite-dimensional closed smooth manifold \(M\) has the homotopy type of a CW-complex, with cells corresponding to the critical points of a Morse function on \(M\). The book discusses the historical development of local coefficients, starting with Reidemeister and Steenrod, and their applications in singular homology and cohomology."
Rui Loja Fernandes's 'Lectures on differential geometry' "builds a bridge between the introductory level and more specialized topics", says Gabriel Teodor Pripoae's review https://zbmath.org/7502625.
"He choose to found this bridge on three pillars: Lie groups; the differential calculus à la Cartan; fiber bundles."
"The author did a great job by condensing a huge area of differential geometry in only 400 pages."
Congratulations to Masaki Kashiwara https://zbmath.org/authors/kashiwara.masaki for being awarded the 2025 #AbelPrize! He is famous for his work on microlocal analysis, sheaf theory, and representation theory.
His influential book 'Sheaves on manifolds' (with Pierre Schapira) was reviewed in https://zbmath.org/0709.18001.
Sebastian Bruch's 'Foundations of vector retrieval' "provides a systematic and in-depth exploration of the theoretical aspects of vector retrieval, a fundamental problem in modern information retrieval", says Mihai Gabroveanu's review https://zbmath.org/7851867.
"The book is clearly written and structured. The illustrations help readers to understand the presented concepts and algorithms."
"There are a few problem books on functional analysis and this new one is a valuable addition to the domain", says Stefan Cobzaş's review https://zbmath.org/7862872 of Volodymyr Brayman/Andrii Chaikovskyi/Oleksii Konstantinov/Alexander Kukush/Yuliya Mishura/Oleksii Nesterenko's 'Functional analysis and operator theory."
"The book is carefully written, with illuminating introductory theoretical parts and well chosen problems with hints and solutions. It is of help to all students studying functional analysis or related fields as well as an auxiliary instrument in the teaching process."

"The two seminal texts on the subject are the books by J. S. Wilson ['Profinite groups' https://zbmath.org/0909.20001] and by L. Ribes and P. Zalesskii [Profinite groups', https://zbmath.org/0949.20017)], which have become standard references in the field."
"The book under review draws inspiration from these works while introducing several notable innovations. Moreover, it provides an updated perspective on the topic, incorporating recent results achieved by various researchers."
"The aim of this valuable new book is to present in a reasonable way some essential points of the English grammar for mathematicians, especially for those whose native language is not English", says Stefan Cobzaş's review https://zbmath.org/7917539 of George Grätzer's 'The little book of math into English.'
"The book is written in a lively and concise style, with illustrations, conversations (performed through ChatGBT) and well chosen examples included. By writing it, the author did a great service to the mathematical community. I think the book will become a must for everything desiring to write mathematics in a clear and grammatically correct English."
Axaykumar Mehta/Akash Modi's 'Robust sliding mode protocols for formation of quadcopter swarm' "includes two kinds of protocols of the quadcopter swarm", says Mihail Voicu's review https://zbmath.org/7918144.
"The continuous-time higher order sliding mode protocols use super-twisting algorithms and are projected for employing linear and non-linear models of quadcopter. Discrete-time sliding mode protocols use the power rate reaching law, the discrete-time super-twisting algorithm, and the exponential reaching law. The thorough analysis of protocols highlights robustness, chattering, control effort, and convergence time for achieving the formation."
