In each topic, brief theoretical discussions are followed by carefully worked out examples of increasing difficulty, and by exercises which range from routine to rather more challenging problems. While it emphasizes some methods that are not usually covered in beginning university courses, the book nevertheless teaches techniques and skills which are useful beyond the specific topics covered here. With approximately 330 examples and 760 exercises.

Download or read book Challenging Problems in Inequalities written by Richard S. Hammond and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-09-21 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A beautiful part in Maths is inequality. There are a lot of techniques and theorems related to inequality. This is the main reason that inequality problems appear in most Mathematics Competitions. Therefore, if you want to be a part of the competitions, mastering in inequality is one thing that you must do. Challenging Problems in Inequalities is a little book about inequalities. This book will provide you with the basics, techniques and theorems in inequalities. We will guide you through many interesting things in inequalities. This book was written in three main parts. The first part is about techniques and theorems in proving inequalities. The second part is about problems. And the last part of the book is about solutions. In the first part of the book, we try to dive readers into the basic inequalities. We lead readers to understand many well-known theorems such as QM-AM-GM-HM inequality, Cauchy-Schwarz inequality, rearrangement inequality, Jensen's inequality, Schur's inequality and etc. Moreover, in each chapter, we give many examples in order to make to make sure that readers understand well about the theorem. Readers should keep in mind that learning maths is not about memorizing but it is all about understanding. The more you understand about the lesson, the more you perform really well in solving problems. In the second part of the book, we listed many challenging problems from around the world. The aim of this part is to help readers to practice their understanding in the first part. Readers should try their best to solve the given problems before seeing the solutions. It is good to figure the answers out by yourself. However, do not worry if you cannot solve them since the last part of the book is about solutions. In this part, we provide readers very detailed solutions to each problems. All problems were solved step by step. This part will help readers to evolve a lot. We hope this book will help readers a lot in inequalities.

Download or read book Inequality and Development Challenges written by Maria Clara Couto Soares and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of books brings together results of an extensive research programme on aspects of the national systems of innovation (NSI) in the five BRICS countries — Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. It provides a comprehensive and comparative examination of the challenges and opportunities faced by these dynamic and emerging economies. In discussing the impact of innovation with respect to economic, geopolitical, socio-cultural, institutional, and technological systems, it reveals the possibilities of new development paradigms for equitable and sustainable growth. This volume analyses the co-evolution of inequality and NSI across the BRICS economies. It reveals the multi-dimensional character of inequality, in going beyond its income aspect to include assets, access to basic services, infrastructure, knowledge, race, gender, ethnicity and geographic location. In advancing valuable policy recommendations, the book argues that inequalities must be factored in development strategies given that benefits of innovation are not automatically distributed equally. Original and detailed data, together with expert analyses on wide-ranging issues, make this book an invaluable resource for researchers and scholars in economics, development studies and political science, in addition to policy-makers and development practitioners interested in the BRICS countries.

Download or read book Inequality and Uncertainty written by Marta Smagacz-Poziemska and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not possible to ignore the fact that cities are not only moving, vibrant and flourishing spaces, promising hope for better quality of life, but that they also accumulate and reflect significant problems. This book explores the relational and dynamic nature of urban inequalities, including their visible and invisible forms. By using the rather elusive term of ‘uncertainty’, the authors zoom in on specific aspects of urban inequalities that are difficult to measure, yet are acutely sensed and experienced by people and, more and more often, perceived as unfair. Here, in the recognition of inequalities as unjust and in the disagreement with the status quo, lies a positive aspect of uncertainty, which can lead to a social awakening and more active citizenship.

Download or read book Inequality the unbeatable challenge written by Medani P. Bhandari and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book presents some unexplored issues of economic inequality, including case studies of various countries. Inequality is a chronic and divisive factor of society. Inequality exists as an integral attribute of human development. Communities, nations, and systems are not evolving at the same speed and rate and thus require different resources in different amounts. However, the distribution of winnings is also uneven due to the multidimensionality of influencing factors.When we talk about inequality, it is not just inequality of income or wealth; it is first, inequality in access to priorities and human needs – to shelter, to clean water, air, health care, and also to appropriate vaccination systems and assistance, security systems and safety guarantees for the future. Past financial crises and the current pandemic shock has revealed bugs in the system, shaking it and changing our perception of the norms.We may have no doubts that inequality is an unsolved problem, but now we need to find out - is it unbeatable? There is still lack of knowledge around how inequality has been grounded throughout human civilization, why society is stratified and classified, economically, politically, socially, and religiously; and why the discrimination due to gender, sexual orientation, country of origin, language differences, immigration status, caste, race and ethnicity? This book addresses these issues in a holistic way as well as including case studies of various countries. It tries to find out why inequality has been unbeatable and what would be the best policies to overcome this challenge.

Download or read book Inequality for All written by William Schmidt and published by Teachers College Press. This book was released on 2015-04-17 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inequality for All makes an important contribution to current debates about economic inequalities and the growing achievement gap, particularly in mathematics and science education. The authors argue that the greatest source of variation in opportunity to learn is not between local communities, or even schools, but between classrooms. They zero in on one of the core elements of schooling—coverage of subject matter content—and examine how such opportunities are distributed across the millions of school children in the United States. Drawing on data from the third TIMMS international study of curriculum and achievement, as well as a six-district study of over 500 schools across the United States, they point to Common Core State Standards as being a key step in creating a more level playing field for all students. William H. Schmidt is University Distinguished Professor at Michigan State University and co-director of the Education Policy Center. Curtis C. McKnight is emeritus professor of mathematics at the University of Oklahoma.

Download or read book Student Voices on Inequalities in European Higher Education written by Fergal Finnegan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the voices and experiences of non-traditional students in European higher education. It examines the impact that access to higher education is having on these students’ lives and discusses what this tells us about European education and society. In particular, it explores the multi-dimensional nature of inequality in varied national contexts focusing on the issues of class, gender, ethnicity, age and disability. The book contributes to the on-going debate about the changing nature of European higher education and argues that research based on the experiences of non-traditional students can be used to improve policy and practice in tertiary education. Drawing on biographical narrative interviews with ‘non-traditional’ students, the book covers topics including: • the contemporary nature of inequality and how the various forms of inequality intersect and overlap in higher education and society • the formation and transformation of learner identities • the structural barriers faced by non-traditional students • the sources of student resilience and agency • a comparison of patterns of inequality, access and retention in various European countries • the implications of these findings for practice and policies. Student Voices on Inequalities in Higher Education will appeal to academics, researchers, policy-makers and practitioners working in higher education institutions as well as people working in the field of widening participation, adult education, access and centres for teaching and learning. It will also be of interest to postgraduate students in higher education.

Download or read book Reducing Inequalities written by Rémi Genevey and published by The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI). This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reduction of inequalities within and between countries stands as a policy goal, and deserves to take centre stage in the design of the Sustainable Development Goals agreed during the Rio+20 Summit in 2012.The 2013 edition of A Planet for Life represents a unique international initiative grounded on conceptual and strategic thinking, and – most importantly – empirical experiments, conducted on five continents and touching on multiple realities. This unprecedented collection of works proposes a solid empirical approach, rather than an ideological one, to inform future debate.The case studies collected in this volume demonstrate the complexity of the new systems required to accommodate each country's specific economic, political and cultural realities. These systems combine technical, financial, legal, fiscal and organizational elements with a great deal of applied expertise, and are articulated within a clear, well-understood, growth- and job-generating development strategy.Inequality reduction does not occur by decree; neither does it automatically arise through economic growth, nor through policies that equalize incomes downward via ill conceived fiscal policies. Inequality reduction involves a collaborative effort that must motivate all concerned parties, one that constitutes a genuine political and social innovation, and one that often runs counter to prevailing political and economic forces.

Download or read book Basics of Olympiad Inequalities written by Samin Riasat and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-20 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than a decade ago I published some notes on inequalities on the WWW with the same title as this book aimed for mathematical olympiad preparation. I do not have specific data on how widespread it became. However, search results on the WWW, publication data on ResearchGate and occasional emails from teachers and students gave me evidence that it had indeed spread worldwide. While I was greatly overwhelmed and humbled that so many people across the world read my notes and presumably found them useful, I also felt it necessary to write a more detailed and improved version. This culminated in the publication of this book. While the main topics from the original notes have not changed, this book does contain more details and explanations. I therefore hope that it will be even more useful to everyone.
